Circlebak vs Claap: feedback on software, not sales calls
Claap is now made for sales teams: it records calls and meetings, and its AI writes the notes and fills your CRM. Circlebak is made for getting feedback on software demos: reviewers are free, each comment can link to its own ticket, and you can set a deadline for feedback.
Free for one creator. Reviewers are always free. 14 days of Business with no card.

Read the transcript
Your engineering team just spent the whole sprint building something new.
So you book a demo… and suddenly, everyone's too busy to make it.
Plan B? Book the whole department into one three-hour demo.
But nobody sits through three hours for the one feature they care about. So the people you need… don't show up.
And the recording? Good luck finding their part.
So it ships without their feedback. It's not what anyone expected. Now you're paying to rebuild it, and your clients have noticed.
That's where Circlebak comes in.
Skip the giant meeting. Each team records a short video of their work, and hits publish.
Tag the stakeholders who care. They're notified right away, and nudged before the feedback window closes.
They watch whenever it suits them, and comment right on the moment that matters.
Link any comment to its Jira, Linear or GitHub ticket, and follow it all the way to done.
So the gaps get caught before launch, not after. Less rework. No awkward client calls.
And you can start for free. You only pay for the people who upload videos, from $12 a month each. Reviewers? Always free.
Circlebak. Show the work before it ships.

Do reviewers need a paid seat?
- No. Reviewers watch, comment and reply for free, and you can invite as many as you like. You only pay for creators, the people who post demos.
