Pricing
PaidShortlyAI is a paid subscription product with two plans listed on its pricing page. Plus is $19 per month billed monthly and unlocks 100+ AI models, web search with AI, chat with images and documents, and standard support.
Pro is $49 per month and adds everything in Plus, 3x higher usage limits, expanded file storage and priority support. A Monthly/Yearly toggle shows a "Save 21%" label, but yearly prices were not visible when reviewed, and the homepage and third-party listings quote a "from $15" per month starting price that likely reflects annual billing.
A "Try for free" link appears on the pricing page without stated trial length or conditions, and the site notes that taxes, regions, discounts and usage limits may vary. Confirm current terms before subscribing.
FreemiumClaude offers a free tier with access to Claude Sonnet and standard usage limits — ideal for individuals exploring the platform.
The Pro plan at $20/month unlocks Claude Opus (the most powerful model), 5x more usage capacity, priority access during peak hours, and the Projects feature for persistent context across conversations.
Team plans start at $25/user/month for organizations needing shared workspaces and higher usage caps. Enterprise plans with SSO, audit logs, custom data residency, and dedicated support are available at custom pricing.
