Pros & Cons

Notion AI

  • Full AI suite (Notion Agent, AI search, Meeting Notes, Enterprise Search) is genuinely comprehensive once on Business
  • Consolidating AI into one tier (rather than a confusing add-on) simplifies the overall pricing structure
  • Custom Agents provide flexible, credit-based scaling for agent-specific usage needs
  • Free and Plus tiers only get a limited AI trial, not genuine ongoing access — Business ($20/user/month) is required
  • Custom Agent credits ($10/1,000, no rollover) add a real separate cost on top of the base Business/Enterprise price
  • The May 2025 retirement of the standalone $10 AI add-on removed a lower-cost path to AI access on cheaper tiers

Gemini

  • Deeply integrated across Google’s broader ecosystem (Search, Workspace, Android)
  • Ultra tier pricing was reduced from its original $250/month, improving accessibility
  • API pricing offers genuinely low-cost options (Flash-Lite at $0.10/million tokens) for cost-sensitive applications
  • Full Workspace integration requires at least Business Standard ($14/user/month), not available on cheaper Workspace tiers
  • Credit-based system layered on top of tier usage limits adds complexity to understanding real usage capacity
  • Ultra tier’s $99.99-$199.99/month range represents significant cost for maximum usage limits and Deep Think access
