Copy.ai pricing explained

A free plan, a flat Starter seat, and an Advanced tier priced for workflows rather than seats.

Copy.ai prices in two different ways, and knowing which one applies to you is the whole game. The Free and Starter tiers sell writing by the seat, with Free capped on chat words and Starter removing that cap for one seat. Advanced and above sell the go to market workflow engine, priced on workflow credits and bundled seats rather than pure word count. So a solo writer compares Free against Starter, while a team automating sales and marketing compares Advanced against a Growth or Enterprise quote. Below is every published plan as of June 2026, then what actually drives the bill.

What moves the real bill

What actually moves your cost

The plan name is only half the story with Copy.ai, because Starter sells words and Advanced sells workflow credits. Four things decide what you actually pay.

→ Free versus Starter. Free caps you at 2,000 chat words; Starter removes the word cap for one seat. If you write daily, Starter pays for itself quickly.
→ Words versus workflow credits. Starter sells unlimited words, while Advanced and above sell workflow credits that power the automation engine. Heavy workflow use, not word count, drives the larger bills.
→ Seats on Advanced. Advanced bundles up to 5 seats, so a small go to market team can share one plan. Larger teams move to Growth or Enterprise quotes priced by seats and credits.
→ Annual versus monthly. Annual billing cuts the price by roughly a quarter to a third, so committed teams save meaningfully by paying yearly.
Pricing questions

Copy.ai pricing FAQ

Is Copy.ai free?

Yes. The Free plan covers one seat and 2,000 chat words with Brand Voice and the Infobase. It is enough to test the tool, but the word cap pushes regular writers to Starter.

How much is Copy.ai per month?

As of June 2026, Starter is $49 per month, or about $36 with annual billing, and Advanced is $249 per month with up to 5 seats. Growth and Enterprise are quote based. Check the vendor for current pricing.

What are workflow credits?

Workflow credits power Copy.ai's automation engine, which runs marketing and sales workflows rather than single prompts. Advanced includes 2,000 credits a month; heavy automation may need a Growth or Enterprise quote.

Does annual billing save money?
