Types of AI heatmap and session replay software
Dedicated heatmap and recording tools
Mouseflow, Crazy Egg, Lucky Orange and LiveSession focus on heatmaps, recordings and funnels for marketers and UX owners. Plans are priced by sessions or pageviews, they install with one script, and AI shows up as an assistant or summary layer.
Free and open-source options
Microsoft Clarity costs nothing and states no traffic limits. OpenReplay publishes its source and can run on your own servers. Both suit teams that want recordings without a per-session bill, with the work shifting to privacy setup and, for OpenReplay, operations.
Experience analytics suites
Contentsquare, which now includes the Hotjar product line, adds journey analysis, errors and AI summaries on top of replay. Pricing starts free and moves to quote-based contracts at the upper tiers, so these suit larger sites where several teams read the same data.
Debugging-oriented replay
LogRocket and Fullstory tie sessions to console errors, network calls and frustration signals, which makes them useful to engineers. Their AI layers sit in upper tiers, and Fullstory prices by quote, so they fit product teams more than small marketing sites.
