AI Tool Pricing Tracker
Most AI tools have a free tier and one or more paid plans, and the prices change often. This table lists what each one costs per month, what the free tier gives you, and the date we checked. Filter for a free tier, or for a paid plan that costs less than a typical streaming subscription.

How we calculate
Prices are the monthly price for one person, in US dollars, copied from each company's own pricing page on the date shown. Where a plan is only sold by the year, we show the yearly price ÷ 12 and say so. Taxes are not included.
"From" is the cheapest paid plan. A plan sold "per user" is shown per user.
Free tiers come with limits (messages, features, models) that companies adjust without notice; we note the main ones.
Common questions
Which AI tools are free?
Tick "Have a free tier" to see them. Free tiers usually limit how many messages you can send or which model you get.
Is the paid plan worth it?
If you hit the free tier's limits most days, or need the newest model, file uploads or longer answers, a paid plan usually pays for itself. If not, the free tier is often enough.
Why does a price differ from what I see?
Prices vary by country, change without notice and may exclude tax. We show the US price on the date in the "Checked" column; the pricing page link has the current one.
