Base44 free tier: how far you get

What the free plan includes

Current official Free plan (base44.com/pricing and docs.base44.com billing/credits, read 2026-11-12): 25 message credits/month, up to 5 message credits/day within that monthly total, 100 integration credits/month, up to 5 apps. Only the personal signup workspace receives free message credits. Paid annual plans list Starter $16/mo, Builder $40, Pro $80, Elite $160; custom domains and in-app code edits are listed on paid plans, not on Free. Daily credits reset at midnight in the workspace owner’s timezone (docs). A previous Free daily figure of 6 credits/day appeared in our 2026-10-16 record; that is not the official limit on the pages we read on 2026-11-12.

Paid plans

Official pricing page read 2026-11-12 (annual view): Starter $16/mo, Builder $40/mo, Pro $80/mo, Elite $160/mo, billed annually. The page FAQ says annual billing saves 20% (monthly price × 12, charged once a year), which implies monthly prices of $20/$50/$100/$200; those monthly figures were not shown as numbers on the annual view we read. Enterprise custom. Free $0.
