NocoDB Pricing Guide

Executive Summary

The NocoDB pricing model is made for growing businesses. With our "pay for 9, get unlimited" approach, you never pay for more than 9 editor seats, for any team size. Your costs stay predictable, and the value increases as your organization grows.

Key Benefits:

Benefit	What it means
Predictable costs	Your bill stops at 9 editor seats automatically.
Unlimited scale	Add all the team members you need at no additional cost.
Immediate value	Start small and grow with no pricing penalties.
No surprises	Billing is transparent, with no hidden fees.

Understanding User Roles and Billing

Billable vs. Non-Billable Users

Billable Users (Editors): Team members who can create, change, or delete data.

Non-Billable Users (Always Free): Team members with view-only or limited access.

Role	Billing	Access
Owner	Billable	Full administrative control
Creator	Billable	Can create new bases and change data
Editor	Billable	Can change existing data and records
Commenter	Non-billable	Can view records and add comments, but cannot edit data
Viewer	Non-billable	Read-only access to data and dashboards

💡 Pro Tip: To get the most value, give the Commenter or Viewer role to stakeholders who only review data and do not edit it.

The "Pay for 9, Get Unlimited" Model

How It Works

You pay for only the first 9 editor seats, for any number of editors.
Every editor beyond the 9th is completely free, with no limits and no restrictions.
Start with any number. Start with 1-2 users and grow naturally.
Automatic billing cap. NocoDB stops charging after the 9th editor.

Real-World Example

Scenario: Your company has 45 users in total, in different departments.

25 editors (Sales, Operations, Product teams who need to update data)
20 commenters/viewers (Executives, stakeholders who review reports)

What you pay for:

Only 9 editor seats (not all 25 editors)
0 seats for commenters/viewers

Your cost: The same as a 9-person team, but 45 people use the platform.

Changing plans

You can change your plan at any time from the billing dashboard.

Change	When it takes effect
Upgrade	Immediately. NocoDB bills you on a prorated basis.
Downgrade	At the end of your current billing cycle.

Please ensure your workspace usage fits within the limits of the downgraded plan (record limits, storage, etc.).

For the detailed steps to change your plan, refer here.

Access your invoices

To view and download your invoices, go to Settings > Billing in the workspace sidebar. There you can see past invoices and their statuses, and download them for your records. For more details, refer here.

Cancel your plan

You can cancel your paid plan at any time from the billing dashboard. After you cancel, your workspace stays on the current plan until the end of the billing period. Then it moves to the Free plan automatically, and NocoDB stops all charges.

Before canceling, ensure you’ve backed up any data or features available only in paid plans, as these may become unavailable after the downgrade.
