Free: Free for up to 10,000 subscribers. Unlimited landing pages, forms and email broadcasts. No visual automations or sequences on Free.
Creator: Read from the pricing-page slider. The slider steps through subscriber ceilings (1,000, 3,000, 5,000, 8,000, 10,000, 15,000, 20,000, 25,000, then every 10,000). Monthly prices are with monthly billing; annual figures are the effective monthly price with yearly billing (the page says it saves 17%). Beyond 105,000 subscribers the page continues but those tiers were not entered.
Pro: List prices. The page also shows a limited-time offer of 25% off the first year of Pro, which is not counted here. A limited-time offer on the pricing page shows $50 a month for the first year (25% off, $593 billed for year one); the list price after that is the figure used here.
