The short answer
What's the main difference between Teramind and Insightful?
Teramind is a security tool that also reports on productivity: it records the screen on every plan and adds keystroke logging, risk scoring and data loss prevention on higher plans. Insightful is a productivity analytics tool that sells its security features as add-ons. That difference decides what each agent records, what each costs and which team inside your company will own it.

Our pick
Why do teams comparing Teramind and Insightful choose Intelogos?
Intelogos is a workforce analytics platform that shows how work time is spent across apps and websites, without screenshots or keystroke logging, and lets managers ask questions about it in plain language. On the four points that decide a shortlist of Teramind and Insightful, it comes out ahead of both.
No screen capture of any kind
- Teramind and Insightful
- Every Teramind plan records the screen as video, with live view and optional audio. Insightful includes screenshots in Workforce Analytics and the Combo Plan and sells on-demand screenshots and screen recording as $4 add-ons.
- Intelogos
- Intelogos doesn't take screenshots. Intelogos doesn't record what people type; it records only whether keyboard or mouse input happened. Managers see apps, websites, window titles and active time, not people's screens.
No recordings to store, secure or review
- Teramind and Insightful
- Teramind's screen recordings are video to store and review, and on its on-premises and private cloud options the servers and backups are yours to run. Insightful keeps screenshots and screen recordings for up to two months.
- Intelogos
- The data is app, website and activity records, turned into seven KPIs and the Chronicle timeline, so there is nothing to watch back. Background agents deploy to Windows and macOS computers through scripts, MDM or RMM and appear within about 20 minutes.
Answers inside the product and in your AI tools
- Teramind and Insightful
- Insightful's InsightsAI assistant is available only through a private beta, and its MCP server is read-only. Teramind's Timmy co-pilot answers questions in Slack and its OMNI insights center on insider risk; its pricing page lists no MCP server.
- Intelogos
- Ask AI answers questions such as "Which team had the most idle time this week?" inside Intelogos and makes changes after you confirm them, and the Intelogos MCP server brings the same data into Claude, ChatGPT or Cursor, both on AI Intelligence and Enterprise.
Published prices from $8, monthly or yearly
- Teramind and Insightful
- Teramind costs $14 to $32 per seat per month billed annually ($15 to $35 monthly) with a 5-seat minimum, and annual plans are paid upfront. Insightful's pricing page shows annual prices from $8 to $16 per seat, with month-to-month billing only on select plans and its security features as add-ons.
- Intelogos
- $8 per license per month billed yearly ($10 billed monthly) for Analytics; $12 ($15) for AI Intelligence; yearly billing saves 20%. Every feature of each plan is listed on the pricing page.

Both paid plans start with a free trial, and a demo walks through the dashboard, Ask AI and the rollout with your questions in mind.
Intelogos is not a security tool: there is no data loss prevention, insider threat detection or screen recording, and window titles and URLs can still contain sensitive details, so tell employees what is recorded.
Pricing
How do the three compare on price?
Intelogos and Insightful both start at $8 per license or seat per month billed annually; Teramind's entry plan costs $14 ($15 billed monthly) with a 5-seat minimum. For 50 users on annual billing that is $4,800 a year for Intelogos Analytics or Insightful Workforce Analytics, against $8,250 for Teramind Starter, and keystroke logging starts with Teramind UAM at $16,500. Prices checked October 23, 2026.
| Plan | Billed annually | Billed monthly | 10 users a year | 50 users a year | 200 users a year |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Intelogos AnalyticsOur pick | $8 per license per month | $10 per license per month | $960 | $4,800 | $19,200 |
| Intelogos AI IntelligenceOur pick | $12 per license per month | $15 per license per month | $1,440 | $7,200 | $28,800 |

| Teramind UAM | $28 per seat per month$330 a seat a year | $30 per seat per month | $3,300 | $16,500 | By quote |
| Teramind DLP | $32 per seat per month$385 a seat a year | $35 per seat per month | $3,850 | $19,250 | By quote |
| Insightful Workforce Analytics | $8 per seat per month | $10 per seat per month | $960 | $4,800 | $19,200 |
| Insightful Workflow Optimization(beta) | $12 per seat per month | $15 per seat per month | $1,440 | $7,200 | $28,800 |
| Insightful Combo Plan | $16 per seat per month | $20 per seat per month | $1,920 | $9,600 | $38,400 |
How the totals are worked out
- Intelogos Analytics: $8 per license per month billed yearly × 12 months × 50 users = $4,800 a year
- Insightful Workforce Analytics: $8 per seat per month billed annually × 12 months × 50 users = $4,800 a year
- Teramind Starter: $15 per seat per month × 11 months on annual billing × 50 users = $8,250 a year
At Teramind's list prices, 200 seats would cost $33,000 a year on Starter, $66,000 on UAM and $77,000 on DLP billed annually, before any volume discount; Teramind's knowledge base says quantity discounts are available above 250 licenses. Which plan to compare depends on what you need recorded: Teramind Starter already records the screen, keystroke logging, email and file transfers need UAM, and data loss prevention needs DLP. Insightful's security features (the Workspace Security Plan, $4 per seat per month) and screen recording ($4) cost extra on every self-serve plan.

For employees
Which is least invasive for employees?
Intelogos, because it captures no screens and no typing. Between the other two, Insightful records less: it logs no keystrokes and captures no audio, webcam video or message content, though it takes screenshots on its main plans. Teramind records the screen on every plan, with optional audio, and adds keystrokes, email and file transfers from UAM.
Teramind
- Screen recording and live view on every plan, with optional audio recording
- Keystrokes, email, file transfers, printing, online meetings, camera use and geolocation from UAM; clipboard on DLP; OCR of screen content on Enterprise
- Remote control of the computer and activity blocking on every plan
- AI conversations recording from UAM
- A Revealed agent people start and stop themselves, a Standard agent with no interface, and a Stealth agent, for vetted customers only, that users can't stop
Pricing page and knowledge base checked October 23, 2026.
Insightful
- Screenshots on Workforce Analytics and the Combo Plan, which admins can turn off or blur for any app, team or person; screen recording and on-demand screenshots are $4 add-ons
- Security alerts on a named app, site or keyword capture a screenshot when triggered, even where screenshots are otherwise off
- No keystrokes, audio, webcam video or message content captured, and no blocking or remote control
- A personal install people clock in and out of, a company install with a visible widget, or a stealth company install with no widget
- Employees see their own data if an admin turns that on
Deployment and pricing pages checked October 23, 2026.
Deployment
Which is easiest to deploy and run?
Intelogos has the least to run: it is cloud-only, background agents appear within about 20 minutes of a scripted or MDM rollout, and there are no recordings to store. Teramind and Insightful can also run on your own infrastructure, which security teams may need and everyone else has to maintain, and both can capture screens that then have to be stored.
Teramind
- Teramind Cloud with no server to maintain, On-Premises on VMware, Hyper-V or Nutanix AHV, or Private Cloud in your own AWS or Azure account, where you manage the server and backups
- Agents for Windows 10 and later, macOS 12.7.6 and later and Linux (Ubuntu, Debian and RHEL), with limited features on Mac and Linux
- Screen recordings on every plan are video to store, secure and review
- 5-seat minimum; annual plans are paid upfront and non-refundable
- The Stealth agent is open only to vetted customers; trials can use the Revealed or Standard agent
Knowledge base and pricing page checked October 23, 2026.
Insightful
- Insightful's cloud, hosted on Google Cloud in the US, EU or Saudi Arabia, a private cloud, or on-premise from 250 licenses with an extra service fee

- Citrix and other virtual desktops supported, with Support handling the setup
- Screenshots and screen recordings kept up to two months, activity logs up to three

Which should you choose?
Which should you choose? Intelogos for work analytics without surveillance
Intelogos is a workforce analytics platform that shows how work time is spent across apps and websites, without screenshots or keystroke logging, and lets managers ask questions about it in plain language.
Intelogos doesn't take screenshots. Intelogos doesn't record what people type; it records only whether keyboard or mouse input happened. It is not a security tool: there is no data loss prevention or insider threat detection, and window titles and URLs can still contain sensitive details, so tell employees what is recorded.
- Analytics
- $8 per license per month billed yearly ($10 billed monthly)
- AI Intelligence
- $12 billed yearly ($15 monthly), with Ask AI, AI Performance Summaries, AI Coaching Recommendations and the Intelogos MCP server
- Never captured
- Screenshots, screen recordings, keystroke content, webcam images or audio
Generate Insights writes an AI report from the page you are viewing on every plan; Ask AI answers questions such as "Which tools are taking up the most time?" on AI Intelligence; and the Intelogos MCP server connects Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor or any MCP client to your organization's data (AI Intelligence and Enterprise). Both paid plans start with a free trial.
Choose Intelogos (our pick)
- Your question is how work time is spent, not who might leak data
- You want no screenshots, screen recording or keystroke logging, on any plan
- Managers should ask questions in plain language with Ask AI, or connect Claude, ChatGPT or Cursor through the Intelogos MCP server
- You want published prices, monthly or yearly ($8 or $12 per license per month billed yearly)
Only choose Teramind if
- You need insider threat detection, data loss prevention or evidence for investigations
- Screen recording, keystroke logging and email monitoring are requirements, not concerns
- You must run it on-premises, in your own AWS or Azure account, or in AWS GovCloud or Azure Government (Enterprise)
Only choose Insightful if
- You want productivity analytics with screenshots as proof of work, plus attendance and shift scheduling
- Security alerts and activity logs as an add-on are enough, without data loss prevention
- You need a private cloud or on-premise deployment for a productivity tool (on-premise from 250 licenses)
Read both sides and want neither screenshots nor spreadsheets?
Intelogos measures how work time is spent across apps and websites and answers questions about it in plain language, so a team that was choosing between Teramind and Insightful can skip the surveillance side of both.
