Updated 13 November 2026

## How much is ClickUp?

ClickUp has five plans: Free Forever, Core, Business, Enterprise and Max. Paid plans are charged per user, per month. These prices are from ClickUp's own pricing page, checked on 11 November 2026 with both yearly and monthly billing selected.

| Plan | Billed yearly | Billed monthly | AI credits per user a month |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Free Forever | $0 | $0 | Trial: 500 per workspace |
| Core | $9 | $12 | Trial: 1,000 |
| Business | $17 | $25 | 1,500 |
| Enterprise | Price on request | Price on request | 3,000 |
| Max | $100 | $120 | 10,000 |

Credits are pooled, so one heavy user can draw on the whole team's allowance.

## What does ClickUp cost for a team of 5, 10 or 25?

A team of 5 on Core pays $45 a month billed yearly. The same team on Business pays $85.

| Team size | Core, yearly | Core, monthly | Business, yearly | Business, monthly |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| 5 people | $45 | $60 | $85 | $125 |
| 10 people | $90 | $120 | $170 | $250 |
| 25 people | $225 | $300 | $425 | $625 |

The figures are monthly costs. Notice how much wider the yearly discount is on Business than on Core.

## How far does Free Forever go?

Further than most free plans, because it doesn't limit people. Free Forever allows unlimited members with unlimited tasks and subtasks, docs, Kanban boards, a calendar view, sprint management and time tracking.

What runs out is space and forms:

- **60 MB of storage** for the whole workspace. A few attached files can fill it.
- **1 form.**
- **A trial of ClickUp Brain:** 500 credits per workspace.

A team that keeps files elsewhere can stay on it for a long time.

## Should a small team pick Core or Business?

Core, unless you need reporting on people's time or more automation. Core removes the storage limit and adds custom fields and task types, unlimited forms, Gantt charts, ClickUp Chat, goals and guest permissions, with 1,000 automations a month.

Business is nearly twice the price on yearly billing. It adds:

1. Advanced dashboards, resource management and timesheets
2. 10,000 automations a month, plus webhooks
3. Google single sign-on, private views and private docs
4. ClickUp Brain with 1,500 credits per user a month and premium models

If the fourth item is why you're upgrading, read the next section first.

## How do ClickUp's AI credits work?

Each AI action spends credits from a monthly pool, and the pool resets each month. ClickUp gives estimates for what things cost:

| AI action | Estimated credits per use |
| --- | --- |
| AI Fields, task creation from Chat, AI Assign, AI Prioritize | 10 |
| AI cards | 20 |
| Image generation | 100 |
| Autopilot or Super Agents | 100 to 300 |

On Business, one person's 1,500 monthly credits cover about 150 simple actions, or as few as 5 agent runs at the top of ClickUp's estimate. ClickUp says agent use varies with what the agent does.

When the pool runs low, extra credits are $10 per 10,000 on any plan. Purchased credits renew monthly and don't roll over.

## What is Max, and who needs it?

Max is the plan for teams that want ClickUp's AI without counting. At $100 per user a month billed yearly, it costs more than five Business seats. It includes everything in Enterprise, 10,000 credits per user a month, MCP connections, and unlimited AI fields, notetaker, image generation and Autopilot agents.

For a team of 5 or 10, the Business plan plus an occasional credit top-up will usually cost less.

## How does Mojobase compare on price?

Mojobase costs more per person than ClickUp Core or Business and covers more of the business. It's $50 a month for the first person and $25 for each after, so $150 a month for 5 people. That one price includes Email, Team chat, Calendar, Tasks, Files, Handbook, Customers and Numbers. Its AI comes as a monthly allowance shared by the team, with no credits to buy.
