01.Evaluation guide

Who it suits

A large team shipping to a small audience. Seats are explicitly unmetered — "no per-seat pricing", in its own words — so inviting everyone costs nothing, and the bill tracks the users you serve at $8.33 per thousand MAU. The free plan is $0 forever with unlimited seats and no card.

Consider something else if…

Your audience is large relative to your team. MAU is the meter, so growth in users is growth in the bill, and the free plan's 1,000 client-side MAU is the tightest audience allowance of the four. There is also no published plan floor — the paid tier is usage-shaped and Enterprise is quote-only.
