Timeline

  1. Medium impact

    Notion AI add-on no longer for sale on Plus. AI now bundled into Business ($18/seat) only.

    Notion stopped selling the standalone $8/seat AI add-on to new Free and Plus customers in May 2025. AI is bundled into Business ($18/seat annual) and Enterprise. Existing $8 add-on subscribers are grandfathered as long as they don't cancel for a month. Plus alone (no AI) stays at $10. The pattern is now clear across Notion, Slack, and Loom: standalone AI add-ons depress per-seat ARR, so bundle them and lift ACV. For founder teams currently grandfathered: do not cancel under any circumstance. For new teams evaluating: decide whether AI features earn the $8 lift to Business and budget accordingly.

  2. Medium impact

    Notion killed the $10/seat AI add-on - full AI is now gated behind the $20 Business tier

    If you were on Plus + AI, you're now paying full Business pricing for AI access - a 2× jump per seat. The unbundling was always coming. For solo founders on Plus this either means leaving Notion AI behind (Claude / ChatGPT direct does most of it for cheaper) or upgrading to Business and getting the team admin features along the way. We're keeping Notion at Pick - it's still the best founder workspace - but Notion AI standalone is now a redundant line item for most teams.
