Which plan to pickTry it free first, but expect to run out of credits quickly. If you design in Figma most days, a Professional Full seat is the one to get. Extra credits can be bought pay-as-you-go if a big project needs them.Build on Free until the app does what you need. Basic works for one or two simple apps, but Plus is the better fit for most small businesses because it allows public apps and more workflows. Pro only makes sense once you need unlimited apps or MCP building.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.
