Podio pricing in 2026
Last updated:
Podio has three plans: Free, Plus and Premium. The paid plans cost $14 to $24 per user per month, less if you pay yearly, and the Free plan stops at 5 users and 100 items. Here is what each plan includes, what the add-ons cost and what no plan includes.
How much does Podio cost?
From Podio's pricing page, in US dollars per user, before taxes: you pay either every month, or once a year up front at a lower price.
| Plan | Per month | Per year | Includes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Free | $0 | $0 | Up to 5 users and 100 items per organization, unlimited workspaces and apps, webforms, 1,000 API calls per hour |
| Plus | $14 | $134.40 | Unlimited items, external clients and light users, read-only access, simple workflows, SOC 2 compliance |
| Premium | $24 | $230.40 | Everything in Plus, advanced workflow automation with 25,000 actions a month, visual reports, email integrations, PDF generation, date and time triggers, ShareFile and e-signature integrations |
A team of 10 pays $1,344 a year on Plus billed yearly, or $2,880 a year on Premium billed monthly.
Is Podio still free?
Yes, for small teams: the Free plan covers up to 5 users, but only 100 items per organization, so most teams outgrow it quickly. Free organizations can try Premium for 30 days.
What do the add-ons cost?
Paid plans can add capacity, billed with the subscription. Starting prices:
| Add-on | Per month | Per year | Capacity |
|---|---|---|---|
| API | $29 | $276 | 2,500 to 50,000 calls per hour |
| Automation | $49 | $468 | 100,000 to 5,000,000 actions a month |
Partner extensions from the Podio marketplace are billed separately by their providers.
Is Podio safe?
Paid plans list SOC 2 compliance, and Podio now belongs to Progress Software, which calls it an independent product line with its own team. We cover the ownership story in Is Podio being discontinued?
What isn't included in any plan?
A copy of your data outside Podio. The built-in Excel export works one app at a time and leaves files and comments behind, and nothing in the plans brings back an app or an item someone deleted by mistake.
That's what Podio Backup, which we build, adds: a daily copy of your items, files, comments and relationships, from €19 a month for a whole organization rather than per user. We compare the options in How to back up Podio.
