Which plan to pickStart on Free. It covers most small apps, and you get unlimited seats. Growth makes sense when you need saved cohorts, alerts or more than a million events. Young startups should check the Startup Program, which gives a year free.Starter is enough to see where one brand stands. Most businesses with more than one product line or market will want Pro for the extra prompts and countries. Agencies should look at Advanced or Peec's separate agency pricing.Start free. Add a card to move to pay as you go when you need more projects or longer history, and set billing limits on each product so nothing runs away. The platform packages only matter for compliance or big teams.
