Idukki vs Tolstoy
Tolstoy has repositioned as an "AI-native commerce platform": shoppable video plus an AI content studio, AI sales chat and AI ad creative. Entry is cheap ($19/mo Pro) but views are metered, with overages of $7 to $10 per extra thousand views, and AI features gate to higher tiers. Idukki is broader (photos + reviews + rights + multi-platform) at a single per-impression rate with every module included.
