Pricing
All you need to know about Noloco plans, credits & billing.
Noloco has three plans — Free, Build, and Enterprise — and you can pay monthly or annually. You can see current prices on the pricing page.
Every app starts with a 14-day free trial of Build, so your team can evaluate the full feature set — workflows, permissions, automations, integrations, and building with Nola. No credit card is required to get started.

How pricing works
Noloco's plans are broadly based on how many people use your apps and how much data those apps hold. Everything else — workflows, permissions, integrations, page types — is a feature of the plan rather than something metered separately.
When you're choosing a plan, there are only four things you really need to weigh up:
Team members — the people inside your organization who use your apps. See user types.
Client users — everyone outside your organization: clients, partners, contractors, volunteers.
Records — your rows of data, counted together whether they live in Noloco Tables or sync in from an external source.
AI credits — how much building and editing you expect to do with Nola.
If you're not sure where you'll land, start on the trial. Usage is visible in Billing & Usage from day one, so you can size your plan against real numbers instead of guessing.
User types
An app user is anyone who accesses your app with an email address — an admin, a team member, a client, a partner, a volunteer, a contractor. Noloco divides users into two categories, team members and client users, and each plan includes a different number of each.
Both categories are counted the same way: a user takes a seat once they log into one of your apps, and holds it until they're deactivated. Someone you've invited who has never signed in doesn't count toward your plan.
Team members
A user is counted as a team member if any of the following are true:
They have the same email domain as the app creator or any app builder.
They have the same email domain as anyone in the app's workspace.
They have a team member or data admin role.
Client users
Everyone who doesn't fall into the team member category is a client user. In practice this is the audience for your client portal — the people you're delivering work to rather than the people delivering it.
On paid plans, client users are included in far larger numbers than team seats, because portals are typically wide and shallow: many people, each using the app occasionally.
Deactivated users
Deactivating a user is how you release a seat. The change takes effect from your next billing cycle — if they logged in during the current one, they're still counted for it, so deactivating partway through a month doesn't remove them retroactively.
Their records and history stay intact, which is why deactivating is the right move when someone leaves — deleting them would take their data with them.
Pay-as-you-go for extra users
If you go past the number of users included in your plan, you don't have to jump to the next tier. Additional users are added automatically and billed per seat on top of your subscription.
You're notified in-app and by email as you approach and exceed your included seats.
Extra seats are charged at the end of your billing cycle, so the charge reflects your actual usage over the month.
Team members and client users are charged at different rates, since they're included in different quantities.
Current per-seat rates are shown on the pricing page.
AI credits
Building and editing with Nola — including Canvas pages — runs on credits. Every plan includes a monthly credit allowance, with more on higher plans, and the Free plan also gets a small daily allowance.
On Build you can raise or lower your monthly allowance yourself from Billing & Usage, and larger allowances cost less per credit. For how credits work — what uses them, what's free, and how allowances reset — see Credits & Usage.
Data & records
Which data sources can I use?
Noloco builds your app from data you already have, so the data source is the first thing you choose. On the Free plan you can use Noloco Tables, our own hosted database. Build and Enterprise add every external connector:
You can connect more than one source to the same app, which is how most teams bring scattered systems into a single tool.
Record limits
Every plan includes a number of records, counted across all of your data — both rows stored natively in Noloco Tables and rows synced in from an external source.
Free
2,000
Record creation and syncing are blocked immediately
Build
25,000 included
Records expand automatically, billed per block up to the plan ceiling
Enterprise
Custom
Agreed with your account team
On Build, exceeding your included records doesn't break your app. Additional records are purchased automatically in blocks so new data keeps syncing and your users keep working; the charge appears on your next invoice. Very large data volumes move to Enterprise.
On Free there's no tolerance — once you hit the limit, new records can't be created and external syncing pauses until you're back under it.
What if I exceed my record limits?
You're notified in-app and by email as you approach and exceed your limits. From there you can reduce the records you're storing, or move to a plan that fits. For the practical options — trimming synced tables, archiving history, reducing what you sync — see Plan Limits and Usage.
Workflow runs
Each time one of your workflows is triggered counts as one run. What matters is the trigger, not the size of the workflow:
A workflow with ten actions is still one run.
A run that fails still counts.
Saving or editing a workflow doesn't count — only executions do.
Disabled workflows don't run, so they don't count.
Free
100
Workflows stop executing
Build
3,000
Runs continue, billed as an overage
Enterprise
Custom
Agreed with your account team
Only the Free plan stops workflows outright. On paid plans your automations keep running and the additional runs are charged as an overage.
Overages
What is an overage?
An overage is an additional charge applied automatically when you go past a metered limit during your billing cycle. Overages apply to workflow runs and file storage; records and seats are handled by the pay-as-you-go mechanisms described above.
How are overages calculated?
Usage is totalled across your billing cycle and charged in arrears, alongside your next subscription invoice — you only pay for what you actually used. You can watch your usage against every limit in Billing & Usage, and you'll be emailed as you approach and exceed a limit.
Current overage rates are on the pricing page.
Billing options
Monthly or annual
You can pay monthly or annually on any paid plan. Annual billing is cheaper per month; monthly gives you more flexibility to change plan.
Monthly billing. At the end of each billing cycle we review your usage — seats, records, workflow runs, file storage — and update your subscription accordingly. If your usage is steady, nothing changes. If you've gone past what your plan includes, you're notified by email and in-app, and the difference appears on your next invoice.
Annual billing. You're billed for the next 12 months up front, based on the plan you choose. We still review usage at the end of each month, so growth in seats or records is billed as it happens rather than waiting for renewal. If you change plan mid-term, you're charged a pro-rated amount for the difference through to the end of your year.
Changing or cancelling your plan
You can change your plan, switch between monthly and annual, or cancel from the billing page in your app — Settings > Billing & Usage > Manage billing. Billing details, invoices, and payment methods are handled through Stripe's secure portal.
Your free trial
Every new app begins on a 14-day trial of Build, with the full Build feature set unlocked. During the trial your AI credits are provided at the Free-plan level. When the trial ends, you can continue on Build, choose Enterprise, or move to the Free plan with reduced limits. No credit card is required to start.
Support
Every Noloco customer can reach our team, join the community, and use our learning material. Open the Support menu from Build mode in your app and click Ask a question — our AI support bot answers immediately, and you can ask to speak to an agent, Monday to Friday.
Alongside that you have the Community, these guides, the Noloco Academy, and regular webinars. See Support for everything available from inside your app.
Enterprise customers get additional support arranged with their account team, including a named point of contact and agreed response times. Contact sales to talk through what you need.
