What each one is
Airtablesite ↗pricing ↗
A spreadsheet-database hybrid: structured records with views and automations, used to run processes a spreadsheet outgrows. Paid plans start at $20/mo (Team); no free plan is published. The ladder we hold runs 2 paid tiers, topping out at $45/mo (Business). We read the same $20/mo in every market we check, so this vendor does not price by country. It quotes USD here rather than local currency, so your bank sets the conversion.

Paid plans start at €13.49/mo (Starter), priced per user; a free plan exists. The ladder we hold runs 2 paid tiers, topping out at €30.49/mo (Advanced). We read the same €13.49/mo in every market we check, so this vendor does not price by country. Its published prices moved on 2026-08-29 — the change log holds the rows. The free Personal plan is real; paid tiers are per user and cost more billed monthly than billed annually.
