Enterprise From $20/seat/mo billed yearly, plus usage Larger organisations needing SSO and audit controls. | Enterprise Custom Large retailers and agencies. | ||
| Which plan to pick | If you already pay for Claude Pro, you have it. If not, try Design on the Free plan and move to Pro when the daily limits get in the way, which happens quickly once you're iterating on a deck. Team makes sense when several people need the same brand setup. | Pro+ is the first plan that includes a commercial licence, so it's the real starting point for a business. Move to Scale only if you have a large catalogue or need the API. | There's nothing to buy for the names themselves. If you want a logo for the name you pick, Brandmark sells one-off logo packages from $35, but you can take the name anywhere. |
