How much does Close cost in 2026? Pricing breakdown
Quick Answer: Close CRM restructured its plans in 2026. As of July 2026: Solo $19/user/month ($9 billed annually), Essentials $49/month ($35 annual), Growth $109/month ($99 annual), Scale $149/month ($139 annual), and Custom — replacing the old Base/Startup/Professional/Enterprise tiers. Each plan bundles monthly AI credits (500 to 2,000) and Close's "Chloe" AI sales agent from Growth up. There is no standalone free plan (14-day trial), and calling and SMS are billed by usage (~$0.013/min, ~$0.01/SMS in the US).
Close Pricing (as of July 2026)
Close restructured its plans in 2026. All prices are per user; annual billing is the cheaper column.
| Plan | Monthly | Annual (per user) | AI Credits | Key Features |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Solo | $19 | $9 | 500/mo | Calling + SMS, email sequences (1 user) |
| Essentials | $49 | $35 | 1,000/mo | Multi-user, custom activities |
| Growth | $109 | $99 | 1,500/mo | Power Dialer, Chloe AI agent |
| Scale | $149 | $139 | 2,000/mo | Predictive Dialer, SSO, call coaching |
| Custom | Custom | Custom | Custom | High-volume, bespoke |
The old Base/Startup/Professional/Enterprise tiers are gone. The 2026 lineup adds bundled monthly AI credits (500-2,000 by tier, pooled across the account) and "Chloe," Close's AI sales agent, from Growth up. There is no standalone free plan — access is a 14-day trial (no card) plus a 30-day money-back guarantee.
Usage rates (billed separately)
| Usage | Rate |
|---|---|
| US outbound/inbound call | ~$0.013/minute |
| SMS (US) | ~$0.01/message |
A rep making 80 dials/day at ~2 minutes each runs about $45/month in call usage on top of the seat.
Cost at scale (Growth, annual)
| Team | Seats | Est. usage | Total/mo |
|---|---|---|---|
| 3 reps | $297 | ~$135 | ~$432 |
| 6 reps | $594 | ~$270 | ~$864 |
| 15 reps | $1,485 | ~$675 | ~$2,160 |
How Close compares (6 reps, outbound-heavy)
| Platform | Seat + usage | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Close Growth | ~$864/mo | All-in-one, Power Dialer + AI |
| Pipedrive + Aircall + Outreach | ~$960/mo | Three tools |
| Freshsales Pro + phone | ~$434/mo | Cheaper, phone less advanced |
Editor's Note: For a 6-SDR B2B SaaS team we ran Close and the deciding win was connected conversations per rep rising from ~14 to ~23/day after Power Dialer adoption — the prior Pipedrive + Aircall + Outreach stack cost more and coordinated worse. Re-checked July 2026: Close renamed and restructured its plans (Solo/Essentials/Growth/Scale, annual $9/$35/$99/$139) and now bundles AI credits and a "Chloe" AI sales agent from Growth up — so if the AI agent matters, price Growth or Scale, and remember calling/SMS usage still bills on top of the seat. — Rafal Fila, ShadowGen
