Scope & Deduplication Note
This roundup covers the "per-seat-pricing" selection only; it does not duplicate existing workflow automation roundups on AiRecMark, which use different member sets or criteria. Rankings derive solely from recorded archive scores — see the comparisons hub for every dossier, and rankings for full leaderboards.
