Zapier Pricing Explained: Plans, Costs and What You Get
Zapier pricing starts at $0 and rises with the number of tasks you run each month. The Free plan costs nothing and includes 100 tasks a month. The first paid plan, Professional, starts at $19.99 a month when billed annually. Team starts at $69 a month billed annually. Enterprise pricing is custom. The plan you need depends on two things: how many tasks your workflows run, and whether you work alone or with a team.
How Zapier Pricing Works: Tasks Are the Currency
Zapier charges by tasks, not by workflows. A task is counted each time a Zap successfully completes an action. If a Zap creates a contact in your CRM, that is one task. If it sends three Slack messages, that is three tasks. Triggers never count toward your limit. Zapier checks for new data for free. It only charges when an action succeeds.
Several built-in tools also cost nothing. Filter, Formatter, Paths, Tables, Forms, Delay and similar steps do not use tasks. That matters when you design workflows. A Zap with five steps may only use one or two tasks if most steps are built-in tools.
Each plan comes with a monthly task tier. You can pick a higher tier within the same plan. The price per task falls as the tier grows. If you reach your limit, Zapier switches you to pay-per-task billing unless you turn that off. Pay-per-task billing costs more per task than your base plan. If it is off, your Zaps pause until the next billing period.
Zapier Pricing Plans at a Glance
| Plan | Price (annual billing) | Tasks per month | Best for |
|---|---|---|---|
| Free | $0 | 100 | Testing one or two simple workflows |
| Professional | From $19.99 a month | 750 and up | Solo users with regular automations |
| Team | From $69 a month | 2,000 and up | Small teams sharing workflows |
| Enterprise | Custom | Annual limits | Large organizations |
The Free Plan: $0 for 100 Tasks a Month
The Free plan costs nothing, forever. It includes 100 tasks a month and unlimited Zaps, Tables and Forms. Every Zap is limited to two steps: one trigger and one action. Polling runs every 15 minutes. Zapier Copilot is included with daily limits.
That is enough to test the platform with real work. A Zap that saves email attachments to Drive, or posts form replies to Slack, fits easily. The plan stops being enough when a workflow needs more than two steps, or when volume passes 100 actions a month. Premium apps are also locked out. If your workflow needs a premium app, you need a paid plan.
Professional: From $19.99 a Month for 750 Tasks
Professional is the plan most solo users land on. It starts at $19.99 a month billed annually, or $29.99 a month billed monthly, for 750 tasks. Higher task tiers cost more. The 1,500-task tier is $39 a month billed annually. The 2,000-task tier is $49 a month billed annually.
Professional unlocks multi-step Zaps, premium apps, webhooks, filters, paths and AI fields. Polling speeds up to every 2 minutes. It is still a single-user plan. If you need teammates in the same workspace, you need Team.
Work out your real task count before you pick a tier. Count the successful actions your Zaps complete in a month, not the number of Zaps. A Zap that runs 20 times a day and takes two actions uses about 1,200 tasks a month. That needs the 1,500-task tier, not the 750-task tier.
Team: From $69 a Month for 2,000 Tasks and 25 Users
Team starts at $69 a month billed annually, or $103.50 a month billed monthly, for 2,000 tasks. It supports up to 25 users. It adds shared Zaps and folders, shared app connections, SAML single sign-on and priority support. Polling drops to every 1 minute.
Team makes sense when several people build and maintain automations together. Shared connections mean one person connects the CRM and everyone uses it. Shared folders keep workflows organized by department. If you are a team of one, Team adds little beyond faster polling.
Enterprise: Custom Pricing for Large Organizations
Enterprise has no published price. It is quoted by Zapier's sales team. It includes unlimited users, annual task limits, advanced admin permissions and app controls, observability tools and a technical account manager. Priority support includes screen sharing.
Most buyers will never need it. It exists for companies that run automation across many teams and need governance, security controls and guaranteed support.
What Counts as a Task (and What Does Not)
Getting this right is the key to controlling your bill. These rules come from Zapier's own pricing page.
- Each successful action counts as one task. Some actions use more than one task.
- Triggers never count. Checking for new data is free.
- Built-in tools are free: Filter, Formatter, Paths, Tables, Forms, Delay, Looping and Digest.
- One Zapier MCP tool call uses two tasks.
- AI steps follow the same task model. The model tier affects how many tasks an AI step uses.
- Failed actions do not count. Only successful actions use tasks.
Design workflows with these rules in mind. Put filters early so unwanted runs stop before an action. Use Formatter instead of a paid app where it works. Keep actions to the ones that must happen.
How to Pick the Right Zapier Plan
Follow these steps to choose without overpaying.
- List every workflow you plan to automate.
- Estimate how often each one runs in a month.
- Count the successful actions per run, ignoring triggers and free built-in steps.
- Multiply runs by actions. That is your monthly task count.
- Add a 20 percent buffer for growth and busy months.
- Match the total to the cheapest tier that covers it.
Start on the Free plan or the 14-day Professional trial to measure real usage. New accounts get 14 days of Professional with no credit card required. Watch the task counter for two weeks. Then pick the tier that fits the real number, not the guess.
Zapier Pricing: The Bottom Line
Zapier is free for light use and starts at $19.99 a month billed annually for serious solo automation. The Free plan covers 100 tasks a month. Professional covers 750 tasks and unlocks multi-step Zaps and premium apps. Team starts at $69 a month for 2,000 tasks and 25 users. The biggest cost driver is task volume, so count your actions before you commit. Prices change, so confirm the current figures on Zapier's pricing page before you pay.
