| Which plan to pick | If you already pay for Claude, you have it. Try it on Free first, and move to Pro once you're making more than the odd document, because decks use up a Free allowance fast. Team makes sense when colleagues need to open and comment on the same documents. | Use Free to test it on your own data. If you analyse numbers most weeks, Pro is the plan most users land on because the cheaper tier's message cap runs out fast. Check the live pricing page, as plans and limits changed several times in 2026. | Start on the free Personal plan with a real data set. If you use it every week, Pro is enough for most people; move to Business only if you keep running out of AI credits. Monthly billing costs about 10% more than the yearly prices shown. |
