How much does Notion cost in 2026?

Pricing Overview

Notion uses a per-member pricing model with a generous free tier for personal use and three paid plans for teams. The platform bundles documents, databases, wikis, and project management into a single workspace. Pricing increases primarily based on collaboration features, administrative controls, and — since the 2026 packaging change — AI access.

Notion Pricing Tiers (as of July 2026)

What Each Plan Includes

Free

The free plan works well for individual users. It provides unlimited pages and blocks, which is more generous than many competitors' free tiers. The main limitations are the 5 MB file upload cap, 7-day page history, a maximum of 10 guest collaborators, and a block limit once a workspace has two or more members. Notion AI is limited to a trial.

Plus

The Plus plan removes file upload limits, extends page history to 30 days, and lifts the guest cap. It is the entry point for small teams that need shared workspaces with reliable version history. Notion AI remains a limited trial on this tier.

Business

The Business plan bundles full Notion AI — including Agents, AI Meeting Notes, and Enterprise Search — plus SAML SSO, private teamspaces, granular database permissions, bulk PDF export, and 90-day page history. Because Notion folded AI into this tier rather than selling it as an add-on, Business has become the default plan for teams that want AI features.

Enterprise

Enterprise pricing is negotiated through Notion's sales team. It adds unlimited page history, audit logs, advanced security controls, SCIM provisioning, and a dedicated customer success manager, and its AI runs with a zero-data-retention option with LLM providers. Data residency options are available for organizations with compliance requirements.

Hidden Costs and Considerations

• Annual vs monthly billing: monthly billing costs roughly 20% more — Plus is $12/user/mo monthly versus $10 annually, Business $24 versus $20.
• AI placement: the earlier standalone Notion AI add-on has been discontinued. Full AI now lives in Business and Enterprise, so a Plus team that wants it moves the whole workspace up a tier.
• Metered agent credits: custom Agents (and the Workers beta) run on credits, about $10 per 1,000 monthly Notion credits, billed on top of per-seat prices.
• Guest limits on Free: the 10-guest limit can be a constraint for freelancers or consultants who share workspaces with multiple clients.

How Notion Pricing Compares

Notion is competitively priced against other all-in-one workspace tools. Confluence starts at $6.05/user/month but lacks Notion's database and project management features. Coda offers a free tier with more automation credits but costs $10/doc maker/month for Team plans. Monday.com starts at $9/seat/month but charges more for comparable feature sets at higher tiers. For teams that primarily need a wiki and documentation tool, Notion offers more functionality per dollar than most alternatives.

Editor's Note: We migrated a 15-person SaaS startup from Confluence ($91/month) to Notion Plus ($150/month). The cost increase of $59/month was offset by eliminating a separate $25/month Trello subscription they used for project tracking. Net result: $34/month more, but one fewer tool to manage. We also tested the then-available AI add-on for two months — usage dropped after the novelty wore off, and 60% of the team rarely used it. That caution transfers directly to today's decision about moving a whole workspace to Business for AI.

Editor's Note: Across ShadowGen Notion deployments in 2024-26, the 2026 change to how AI is sold reshaped the budget. Notion AI is no longer a cheap add-on on Plus; full AI now lives in Business at $20 a user (annual billing), so a team that ran Plus at $10 plus a small AI fee has to move the whole workspace up to keep it. On top of that, the new Agents and Workers run on metered credits, roughly $10 per 1,000, so heavy AI automation generates usage charges above the per-seat price. We budget Notion AI users at the Business seat plus an allowance for agent credits, not the old Plus-plus-add-on math. — Rafal Fila, ShadowGen
