Which plan to pickPro on yearly billing is the sweet spot: $10 a seat removes the storage cap and turns on integrations. Only step up to Business if you need video recordings or want to see team talk-time and coaching stats. Monthly billing costs nearly twice as much, so commit for a year once you know you'll use it.Core on yearly billing covers almost everyone. Monthly billing is double the price, so only use it while you decide. Advanced is only worth it for sales teams that need Salesforce sync or lots of accent conversion; call centres should look at Krisp's separate Call Center plans.Use Free until you catch yourself wishing the AI was there. Then Pro. Plus and Max only make sense if Raycast becomes your main way of talking to AI, and most people already pay for Claude or ChatGPT separately.
