| 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. | 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. | Pro is the sweet spot for most people because it adds document uploads and the MCP server. Move to Team only when several people need decks on the same brand template. Prices are per user. |
