Pricing entry tiers: Bookvault at Free to install, Gelato: Print on Demand at Free to install. Check each app's tier structure for the capacity limits you actually need before deciding — the headline number is the same shape, but the gating shape per tier (apps, orders, integrations) varies. Gelato: Print on Demand has the larger user base (821 reviews vs 5), which usually maps to broader integration coverage, faster bug-fix cadence, and a deeper bench of community workflow patterns.
