BusinessOur pick $14/user/mo Anyone in regular client or sales calls. | BronzeOur pick $34/mo billed yearly ($39 monthly) A small business going live. | Plus $10/member/mo billed yearly Small teams who want shared docs without the AI. | |
Enterprise $35/user/mo Companies that need admin control over who records what. | Silver $39/mo billed yearly ($49 monthly) Busier businesses. | BusinessOur pick $20/member/mo billed yearly Teams who want the AI properly switched on. | |

Enterprise Custom Large organisations. | |||
| Which plan to pick | Start on Basic and see how it fits your week. If you find yourself wanting a call from six weeks ago, that's your signal to move to Business. Enterprise is only for IT-managed rollouts. | Test on the free plan, then move to Bronze to remove branding and lift the limits. Silver costs little more yearly and gives 2.5 times the conversations, so pick it if you're near the Bronze cap. | Solo users can stay on Free for a long time. For a team the honest answer is Business, because Plus leaves out the AI that makes Notion interesting now. Note that yearly billing is what gets you the $10 and $20 prices, and monthly billing costs more. |
