What Each Tier Includes

Free — Getting Started

The free plan supports 1,000 records per base, 100 automation runs per month, 1 GB of attachments per base, and 1 extension per base. It includes Grid, Form, Kanban, Gallery, and Calendar views. Suitable for individuals or very small teams exploring Airtable.

Team — Growing Teams

The Team plan at $20/user/month unlocks 50,000 records per base, 25,000 automation runs per month, Timeline and Gantt views, and unlimited extensions. It adds custom branded forms and advanced field types. This is the most popular plan for small-to-medium teams.

Business — Scaling Organizations

The Business plan at $45/user/month provides 125,000 records per base, 100,000 automation runs per month, two-way data sync between bases, a centralized admin panel, and SAML SSO. Designed for organizations with multiple departments sharing interconnected data.

Enterprise Scale — Large Organizations

Enterprise Scale pricing is custom and includes 500,000 records per base, 500,000 automation runs per month, the Enterprise API for bulk operations, data loss prevention policies, audit logs, and dedicated support. Built for companies with strict governance and high-volume data requirements.

Airtable vs Alternatives on Price

Platform Free Tier Team/Pro Plan Enterprise
Airtable 1,000 records $20/user/month Custom
Smartsheet No free tier $9/user/month (Pro) Custom
Parabola 1,000 rows/step $80/month (Plus) Custom

Smartsheet is cheaper per seat but lacks Airtable's flexible database model. Parabola is a different tool category (data pipelines) but competes with Airtable for data transformation use cases and is more expensive for team access.

Verdict

Airtable's free tier is excellent for prototyping and small projects. The Team plan ($20/user/month) offers the best value for most teams with its 50,000-record limit and 25,000 automation runs. Be aware that costs scale linearly with users — a 20-person team pays $400/month on the Team plan. For large teams, Smartsheet at $9/user/month may offer better economics.
