Team $200/mo flat A larger team that needs SSO and roles. | ProfessionalOur pick $69/mo billed yearly, or $87 monthly Teams scraping several sites regularly. | Enterprise Custom Companies with security reviews and high volume. | |
Ultimate Custom Companies with heavy volume or strict security needs. | Premium From $500/mo billed yearly High-volume or protected sites. | ||
| Which plan to pick | The Free plan is unusually generous, so start there. Move to Plus when you want monthly credits instead of a daily cap and the option to use your own AI keys. Self-host only if someone on the team is happy running a server. | Test on Free first to make sure your target sites work. Professional suits most business use because of the site and user limits; pay yearly if you are sure, as monthly costs much more. | If you are connecting your own Claude or ChatGPT to your own apps, Hobby is all you need. Move to Pro when a team or a product of yours starts using it, so usage keeps running past the free cap instead of pausing until next month. |
