| Which plan to pick | Standard covers most individuals; watch the usage dashboard on your first big job. Move to Business when several people need it or you want to run it on your own AI account. | 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. | Start on the free Personal plan with a real data set. If you use it every week, Pro is enough for most people; move to Business only if you keep running out of AI credits. Monthly billing costs about 10% more than the yearly prices shown. |
