Kitcast pricing per screen and the Kitcast Starter and Pro plans compared

Prices read on Kitcast's pricing page in October 2026, in USD per screen.

Every plan includes unlimited team members, and Kitcast states there are no setup fees, no per-user fees and no storage overages. The trial is 14 days with full Pro access and no card, and paid plans carry a 30 day money back guarantee. Education and nonprofit discounts are available on request.

At the published rates:

Paying yearly cuts the Pro bill by about 29 percent. At 100 screens you are past the 50 screen line where Kitcast quotes volume pricing, so treat the 100 row as the ceiling of the negotiation, not the price you will pay.

Starter is enough for one site with a handful of screens and one or two people editing. The jump to Pro is driven by four things, and if any one applies, budget for Pro from the start:

• IT wants signage behind the company login. SAML single sign-on is on Pro, which at 10 USD yearly is one of the cheapest SSO tiers in the category.
• You show dashboards or web pages. Power BI and Tableau dashboards, live web pages and streams are Pro features.
• Several teams publish. Advanced roles and permissions are on Pro, so a franchise or multi-department setup ends up there.
• Safety wants alerts on the screens. CAP and emergency alerts sit on Pro.

Kitcast does not sell its own player. Its pricing page lists the devices it runs on and their typical one-time cost: Amazon Fire TV Stick about 39 USD, Android TV boxes 30 to 200 USD, Apple TV 199 to 249 USD and BrightSign players 380 to 1,335 USD. Samsung Tizen and LG webOS commercial displays, Windows, macOS, Raspberry Pi and Linux are supported too, so a recent commercial display may need no extra device at all.

Kitcast started as the first signage app on the Apple TV App Store, and many customers still run it on Apple TV. At 25 screens that hardware choice adds roughly 5,000 to 6,200 USD up front, more than a year and a half of the Pro subscription. A Fire TV Stick at 39 USD a screen cuts it to under 1,000 USD. Pick the player before you compare subscription prices, because it moves the three year total more than the plan does.

Kitcast's pricing page does not mention proof of play reports or stored screenshots on either plan. Pro has audit and activity logs (who changed what) and monitoring with alerts (is the screen online). That covers most internal use. If a franchisor, advertiser, landlord or auditor asks what a particular screen actually showed on a particular day, ask Kitcast sales in writing what report you would hand over, before you sign.

Twenty five screens for one year at published yearly rates.

Kitcast is cheaper than Displayer at both levels, and Kitcast Pro is the cheaper way to get SSO, by 4,200 USD a year at 25 screens. That is worth saying plainly. Where Displayer earns the difference is evidence: on Professional every paired screen stores timestamped screenshots of what it displayed, so the answer to "was our promotion on the screen in the Dallas store last Tuesday" is a picture rather than a log line. Displayer also runs in the browser the display already has, so a smart TV or commercial display needs no stick at all. Every plan is on the pricing page, and proof of play shows what the record contains.

• Choose Kitcast Starter for one or two sites, a small team and screens that show media and schedules.
• Choose Kitcast Pro when IT requires SSO, when screens show Power BI or Tableau dashboards, or when you want CAP alerts at the lowest per screen price.
• Choose Displayer Professional when someone outside the company asks what played and wants to see it: franchise groups, retail networks selling screen time to suppliers, banks with rate boards and property managers. Our retail digital signage and digital signage for banks pages show how that evidence is used.

If the screens are mostly dashboards, the hard part is usually getting the numbers in one place before they reach a display. A data integration platform that connects your apps and databases can feed one dashboard that every screen shows, whichever signage software you choose.

If you are still building a shortlist, our best digital signage software comparison prices the main platforms per screen side by side, and the Yodeck pricing and OptiSigns pricing guides cover the two vendors buyers most often weigh against Kitcast.

Kitcast Starter costs 9 USD per screen a month, or 7 USD a month billed yearly (84 USD a year). Kitcast Pro costs 14 USD per screen a month, or 10 USD billed yearly (120 USD a year). Enterprise is quoted, and volume pricing applies from 50 screens.

Yes. Kitcast offers a 14 day free trial with full Pro features, including SSO, the API and audit logs, and no credit card is needed. Paid plans also carry a 30 day money back guarantee. There is no free plan after the trial.

No. Both Starter and Pro include unlimited team members, and Kitcast states there are no per-user fees, setup fees or storage overages. You pay per screen, plus the one-time cost of any player hardware.

Kitcast runs on Apple TV, Amazon Fire TV, Android TV boxes, BrightSign, Samsung Tizen and LG webOS displays, Windows, macOS, Raspberry Pi and Linux. Its pricing page lists players from about 39 USD for a Fire TV Stick to 199 to 249 USD for an Apple TV.

Pro. SAML single sign-on, Microsoft 365 and Google Workspace integration, the API, MDM control and audit logs are all on Pro at 10 USD per screen a month billed yearly. Starter has none of them.

Kitcast's pricing page does not list proof of play reports or screenshots on Starter or Pro. Pro includes audit and activity logs and screen monitoring. If you need a playback record for advertisers or a franchisor, confirm the report format with Kitcast sales before buying.

At yearly rates, yes. Kitcast Pro at 10 USD per screen a month is below OptiSigns Pro at 11.25 USD and Yodeck Premium at 12 USD. Xibo Cloud Professional at 4.90 USD is cheaper still.

Pair three displays through their own browser, run them for a month and compare the bill and the screenshot record with the Kitcast plan you were about to choose.
