Notion pricing centers on four plans — Free, Plus, Business, and Enterprise — with paid tiers charged per member at the workspace level. For software buyers and team leads, the practical question is less about headline plan names and more about where limits show up: collaboration, file handling, page history, admin controls, and AI-related features.
What it is and who it’s for
Notion positions its plans around team maturity and operating model rather than around a single feature gate. The Free plan is intended for individuals organizing personal projects and tasks. Plus is positioned for collaboration within small teams. Business is aimed at companies using Notion AI and advanced integrations. Enterprise is for larger organizations that need scalability, advanced controls, and security.
The same account can operate multiple workspaces on different plans. Plans are billed at the workspace level.
How it works
The core billing model in Notion pricing is member-based for paid plans, while guests do not incur charges. In practice, that means a team pays for the people who belong to the workspace as members, while outside collaborators can be invited as guests.
Guest access is narrower than member access: guests can only open the individual pages they are invited to, and they cannot access all team pages inside Teamspaces.
Notion also separates some AI and automation consumption from the base plan. Custom Agents are free to try and then priced at $10 per 1,000 monthly Notion credits. Workers are also free to try during beta, and recent release notes say they begin using credits on August 11 2026.
Pricing and cost considerations
Notion pricing starts at $0 for the Free plan[cite: 3]. The Plus plan costs $10 per member per month[cite: 3], and the Business plan is $20 per member per month[cite: 3]. Enterprise requires custom pricing[cite: 3]. Notion pricing is billed in USD, and yearly billing can reduce costs by up to 20% compared with monthly billing[cite: 1, 3].
The Free plan includes unlimited pages and blocks for individuals, but multi-member Free workspaces face a block limit before an upgrade is required. It also caps file uploads at 5 MB.
Page history is also tiered: Free includes 7 days, Plus includes 30 days, Business includes 90 days, and Enterprise includes unlimited page history.
External guest limits change by plan. Free includes 10 external guests, while Plus, Business, and Enterprise list unlimited guests.
Feature depth also changes by tier. Free includes basic forms, basic sites, Notion Calendar, and databases with subtasks, dependencies, and custom properties. Plus adds custom forms, custom sites, unlimited charts, unlimited collaborative blocks, unlimited file uploads, and basic connections. Business adds Notion Agent, AI Meeting Notes, Enterprise Search Beta, SAML SSO, granular database permissions, private teamspaces, domain verification, and premium connections. Enterprise adds SCIM user provisioning, audit log, security and compliance connections, domain management, advanced connections, and zero data retention with LLM providers.
Analytics are also tiered. Free and Plus include basic page analytics, Business includes advanced page analytics, and Enterprise includes workspace analytics.
How to choose
If the main issue is document handling, Free becomes restrictive quickly because uploads are capped at 5 MB, while Plus includes unlimited file uploads. Notion’s per-member-plus-credits structure is one of the models compared in our SaaS pricing models guide.
If your team needs a longer record of edits, page history is a clear dividing line: 7 days on Free, 30 on Plus, 90 on Business, and unlimited on Enterprise.
If outside collaboration is common, guest limits matter. Free allows 10 external guests, while the paid tiers list unlimited guests. For a similar plan-by-plan breakdown of another collaboration tool, see our Slack pricing breakdown.
If identity and governance are part of procurement, the dividing line is higher up the stack. Business includes SAML SSO and granular database permissions, while Enterprise adds SCIM user provisioning, audit log, domain management, advanced security and controls, and organization-level controls.
If AI usage is part of the rollout, Business is where Notion lists Notion Agent, AI Meeting Notes, and Enterprise Search Beta, while Custom Agents and Workers introduce separate credit-based consumption.
Limitations and gotchas
Not every plan is available in every workspace, so buyers should treat screenshots or plan comparisons as conditional until they check the live workspace settings.
Mobile purchasing has a notable restriction: upgrades to Plus on mobile are only available for Free-plan workspaces with no other members, and mobile Plus subscriptions are limited to one-member workspaces.
Billing timing also affects change management. Upgrades take effect immediately and start a new billing period, while downgrades take effect at the end of the current billing cycle. Payment methods listed by Notion include debit or credit card, Apple Pay, and Google Pay.
Service expectations also differ from some enterprise software categories. Notion does not offer a standard SLA, though custom SLAs are available for teams with greater than 100 members.
FAQ
Can one Notion account run different teams on different plans?
Yes. Notion says one account can have multiple workspaces on different plans, because billing is handled at the workspace level.
Can smaller organizations self-serve into Enterprise?
Notion says organizations with fewer than 100 employees can upgrade to Enterprise from settings. Organizations with more than 100 employees must contact sales for Enterprise information.
Do AI-related features always come only from the base plan subscription?
No. Notion lists Custom Agents separately at $10 per 1,000 monthly Notion credits after the free trial period, and Workers begin using credits on August 11 2026.
