Are Stillio and Urlbox close competitors?

Yes. Both can schedule website screenshots. Stillio centers on recurring captures and an archive, while Urlbox offers scheduled bulk captures through CaptureDeck alongside a separate Screenshot API.

Which is better for capturing pages without writing code?

Stillio lets you add webpages and schedule recurring screenshots in its app. Urlbox CaptureDeck also supports scheduled captures without building an API integration, and adds CSV imports and report exports.

Can I generate screenshots on demand through an API?

Urlbox publishes synchronous and asynchronous rendering APIs for generating captures. Stillio's published API retrieves existing URLs and screenshots; it does not currently add, edit, or delete tracked pages.

Which costs less to start?

Stillio Snap Shot starts at $29 per month. Urlbox Screenshot API Lo-Fi starts at $19 per month, while its scheduled bulk-capture product, CaptureDeck, starts at $29 per month. The entry plans have different limits and uses.

How long do they keep screenshots?

Stillio includes 36 months of screenshot retention while the subscription is active. Urlbox CaptureDeck includes one year of retention and offers extensions using credits on higher plans.

Can either service take screenshots every five minutes?

Stillio lists scheduling up to every five minutes on its Top Shot plan, starting at $299 per month. Urlbox lists schedules up to every five minutes on CaptureDeck Pro, also priced at $299 per month.

Which should I choose for bulk reports?

Choose Urlbox CaptureDeck if you need to import URL lists and produce PDF screenshot reports; PDF reports start on its Standard plan. Stillio supports batch URL uploads on paid plans and focuses on keeping and sharing individual archived captures.

Do both offer a free trial?

Yes. Stillio offers a 14-day trial. Urlbox advertises a 7-day trial for CaptureDeck and for its Hi-Fi and Ultra Screenshot API plans.

Stillio vs Urlbox

Choose Stillio if you want to set up recurring website screenshots and keep a dated archive; choose Urlbox if you need screenshots generated inside software or want bulk captures and reports. Both offer scheduled captures, but Urlbox separates its developer-focused Screenshot API from CaptureDeck, its tool for teams working with lists of webpages.

The verdict

The deciding factor is how screenshots enter your workflow. Pick Stillio for a straightforward schedule-and-archive service, particularly when you want a longer included retention period. Pick Urlbox for an on-demand API, or choose its CaptureDeck product when your team needs CSV imports, PDF reports, and larger capture batches. Compare the relevant Urlbox product and plan rather than treating its API and CaptureDeck as one subscription.
