Which plan to pickBuild on Free to see if you like the result, then move to Launch to go live on your own domain. Grow is only worth it if you have lots of customers or use the AI marketing tools heavily.Start on Free to see whether the chat-to-build approach suits you. Move to Pro the moment you are building something real, and buy a higher credit tier rather than topping up if you run out most months. Business only makes sense once several people need to log in and manage the apps.Stay on Free if you make the odd page. Plus is the sensible paid plan; the credit allowance matches what you pay, so treat it as pay-as-you-go with a monthly minimum. Business costs over three times as much for the same credits, so only pick it for the data protections.
