CreatorDB offers the Free, Pro, Premium, Enterprise and Custom plans. You can start on the Free plan at no cost, or subscribe to a paid plan with monthly or yearly billing. Each plan offers different quotas for accessing database features and a different number of monthly credits. You can upgrade, downgrade or cancel your subscription plan anytime through the CreatorDB platform and view all service quota usage. > [!NOTE] > > There is no free trial. For current prices, quotas and features, see [Pricing](https://www.creatordb.app/pricing). ## Plans and monthly credits Credits pay for CreatorDB API and MCP calls. Each paid plan includes a number of credits every month and a per-credit rate for any extra credits you buy. The Free plan includes no monthly credits, but you can purchase credits at any time without upgrading your plan. | Plan | Price | Monthly credits | Per extra credit | | - | - | - | - | | **Free** | US\$0 | No monthly credits | US\$0.04 | | **Pro** | US\$79 / month | 3,160 | US\$0.025 | | **Premium** | US\$249 / month | 12,450 | US\$0.02 | | **Enterprise** | US\$749 / month | 74,900 | US\$0.01 | | **Custom** | Let's talk | Custom credit allocation | Below US\$0.01, negotiated by volume | Prices shown are for monthly billing.
