Which plan to pickPro is the only option short of Enterprise, so use the 14-day trial to run one real job end to end and watch the credit meter. If it comes in under 20,000 credits a month, you are set.Core is enough for most small businesses, and 10,000 credits goes a long way when routers and error handlers are free. Move to Pro if a failed run costs you money and you want priority execution and better logs.Learn on Community. If you are automating real business processes, Standard is where agents and document extraction open up; use the 60-day trial to prove one process before signing. UiPath says the Basic plan is being reworked.
