Common Questions
Q: Does Clueso support SSO for enterprise identity management?
A: No. Clueso does not offer SSO at any plan tier — SAML, OAuth, and OIDC are all absent, including on the Enterprise plan as publicly documented. This is a significant gap for enterprises that require identity provider integration for user provisioning and access governance. Docsie Recorder's downstream Docsie platform supports SAML, OAuth, OIDC, Azure AD, and Okta SSO on enterprise tiers.
Q: Does Docsie Recorder keep recordings local, or does it upload them to the cloud?
A: Docsie Recorder is local-first — it captures and edits video entirely on-device, and local MP4 and GIF exports require no account or cloud connection. Only when a user explicitly triggers the Video-to-Docs conversion does the recording transfer to Docsie's cloud API. This means raw recordings are never uploaded without user intent, which reduces the data exposure surface that enterprise compliance teams evaluate.
Q: Which tool has stronger compliance certifications — Docsie or Clueso?
A: Clueso holds SOC 2 Type II and ISO 27001 certifications, which are strong baseline credentials. Docsie's platform matches SOC 2 and GDPR coverage and adds audit logs, role-based access control, and SSO — controls that compliance frameworks like SOC 2 evaluate as operational requirements, not just certifications. For enterprises that need both certifications and operational controls, Docsie's full stack is more complete even if ISO 27001 certification status should be checked directly with Docsie's sales team.
Q: Can Clueso be integrated into an enterprise automation pipeline via API?
A: No. Clueso does not expose a public API at any tier. This means content creation, export, and publishing cannot be triggered or orchestrated programmatically, which is a hard blocker for enterprises that need to route documentation into CI/CD pipelines, ITSM workflows, or content management automation. Docsie provides API access and webhooks that allow the full Video-to-Docs and publishing workflow to be automated.
Q: How does multi-tenant portal delivery work in Docsie Recorder's downstream platform?
A: After a screen recording is converted into structured documentation through Docsie's Video-to-Docs pipeline, the resulting content can be published into Docsie's multi-tenant portal architecture. Enterprises can configure separate portals for different departments, product lines, or external clients — each with custom branding, custom domains, and independent access controls — all managed from a single Docsie workspace. Clueso does not offer multi-tenant portals or custom domain support.
Q: Is Docsie Recorder free to deploy across an enterprise device fleet?
A: Yes. The recorder core is MIT-licensed and free to download, install, and run on macOS, Windows, and Linux with no per-seat licensing cost. Enterprises can deploy it across mixed OS fleets without incremental recorder fees. Video-to-Docs conversion and downstream Docsie platform features use Docsie AI credits and workspace-based pricing, but the recording and local export workflow itself carries no per-device cost.
Deep Dive
Enterprise buyers evaluating screen recorders and video-to-docs tools need more than AI output quality. This section examines Security & Compliance, Scalability & Performance, Administration & Control, and Support & SLA for both tools.
Clueso holds SOC 2 Type II and ISO 27001 certifications, which gives procurement teams a credible compliance baseline. Docsie Recorder's downstream platform matches SOC 2 and GDPR coverage and adds audit logs, granular role-based access control, and SSO integrations (SAML, OAuth, OIDC, Azure AD, Okta) that Clueso does not offer at any tier. Critically, the recorder itself is local-first — raw video stays on-device until the user explicitly triggers a Video-to-Docs upload — reducing the data exposure surface that compliance officers care about. Clueso has no SSO and no audit logs, making it unsuitable for enterprises with identity governance requirements. For regulated industries, Docsie's full enterprise stack is meaningfully more complete.
Docsie Recorder is a free, open-source desktop application with no per-seat recorder licensing cost, which means enterprise device fleet deployment scales without incremental recording costs. The downstream Docsie platform uses workspace-based pricing with AI credits for Video-to-Docs conversion, avoiding per-creator fees. Clueso's entry tier costs $1,440 per year with export minutes that do not roll over — 6 hours per year on lower tiers is a hard ceiling that breaks at enterprise content volumes. Clueso's Enterprise plan removes export caps but requires custom pricing. Linux support in Docsie Recorder further reduces OS compatibility friction for mixed engineering-heavy organizations. Version control and content reuse in Docsie also reduce rework at scale.
Docsie Recorder connects to a Docsie workspace that provides administrators with SSO enforcement, role-based permissions, multi-tenant portal configuration, custom domains, API access, and versioned documentation lifecycle management. Enterprises can provision users through identity providers and enforce access policies centrally. Clueso has none of these administrative controls — there is no SSO, no audit trail, no RBAC, and no API for programmatic management. Content produced in Clueso also has no version history, making rollback and change tracking impossible. For IT and security teams evaluating administrative posture, Docsie's platform layer is the differentiator: the recorder is the capture wedge, but the downstream Docsie platform provides the control plane enterprises require.
Clueso offers dedicated support on its Enterprise plan with an enterprise SLA, but standard tiers receive priority support only. There is no published uptime SLA for non-enterprise customers. Docsie provides dedicated support and SLA commitments at enterprise tiers, including access to account management and integration assistance. The open-source nature of Docsie Recorder's MIT core also means enterprises can inspect, fork, and self-support the recorder independently of the Docsie cloud — a meaningful assurance for security-conscious IT teams. For teams that need Slack or Teams-based support channels, Clueso's Enterprise plan includes this; Docsie's enterprise tier provides equivalent escalation paths with the added benefit of a broader platform support scope covering the full CREATE-to-DELIVER workflow.
