How to read this page

Each price is a monthly list price in the currency and for the billing unit printed next to it. A price per seat, a flat price and a price per usage are different things, so a tool with rows in several billing units has one line per unit, no price is converted, and no line is put above another: the order is the order of the baseline file, not a ranking.
Plan rows marked contact sales are left out, with or without a figure: 23 of 120 plan rows.
Only the Monthly price column is used. A tool has no line when the baseline holds no monthly price above 0 for it: its figures are in the annual or displayed price columns of its page, or its rows are free or contact sales.
The row with the lowest price can be an add-on or a usage rate and not a full plan; the plan name says which, and the page of the tool holds every row.

Lines marked low confidence: 1 of 16. Every value is copied from pricing-baseline-2026-10.csv without rounding. Each pricing page was read once and nothing was checked against a second source, so an extraction error is possible on any line. The tools were picked by a terms and robots.txt check, not by market share, so this is not a full list of any category, and it is not buying advice.
