| Which plan to pick | Use the free credits to make two or three decks and judge the output. If you'll keep using it, Plus is the sensible step because it removes the badge and refreshes credits monthly. Only move to Pro if you want the API, custom domains or viewer analytics. | Pro on the yearly plan is the only sensible individual option, because month to month costs three times as much. Go to Team only if several people build decks and you want the brand locked, since $40 a seat adds up fast. | There's no half-way option: Business is the first plan with real Notion AI, so budget $20 a member a month. If your team is five people on Plus, that's an extra $50 a month, which is fair if meeting notes and search save each person an hour a week. |
