Which plan to pickUse 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.Business Standard is the plan to be on. Starter is cheap but leaves out Gemini in Docs, Sheets and Slides, which is the whole point. Only move to Plus if you need Vault or the extra storage, not for the AI.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.
