FAQ

Why do AI productivity tool prices change so often?

The underlying model costs are still falling, and vendors are experimenting with seat-based, usage-based, and credit-based pricing. We re-check this table on a rolling basis, but always confirm on the official site before buying.

Is a free tier enough?

For light use, often yes — Fireflies.ai, Perplexity, Granola, and Otter.ai all have genuinely usable free tiers. Daily users usually outgrow free limits within weeks.

What's the cheapest good option?

Make at $9/mo is the cheapest entry to serious automation; Fireflies.ai Pro at $10/mo (annual) covers meeting notes. The free tiers of Perplexity and ChatGPT cover a lot of everyday AI work at $0.
