|---|---|---|---|
| Plans | Business Starter A$9.90/user/mo on a 1-year commitment Tiny teams who mainly want email and basic Gemini chat. | Basic $10/mo billed yearly, or $15 monthly Occasional decks for one person. | Starter $0 Trying a deck or two. |

Business Plus A$30.90/user/mo on a 1-year commitment Teams needing more storage, Vault and tighter device control. | Team $30/mo billed yearly, or $40 monthly Teams that need on-brand decks. | Gold $100/mo billed yearly ($1,200) Teams where decks win or lose deals. | |
Enterprise Custom Large organisations with compliance requirements. | Max $200/mo billed yearly, or $240 monthly Heavy users who don't want to count credits. | ||

| Which plan to pick | 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. | 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. | Make one real deck on Starter. If it beats your current process, Pro covers most people. Gold only makes sense for teams that need custom templates and a shared knowledge base. Compare it with Gamma before paying for a year. |
