AI Emaily Pricing Explained: Pro, Autopilot and Team

AI Emaily pricing explained simply: three paid plans, priced by how many inboxes you run, how much autonomy you hand the agent, and whether more than one person shares the account. Pro is built for one person managing several inboxes with Copilot. Autopilot is the same single-person setup with Autopilot mode unlocked, more inboxes and more AI credits. Team gives every seat everything in Autopilot, plus shared inboxes and delegation for people who work the same threads.

The number that actually changes your decision isn't the sticker price. It's whether you need the agent to act without you approving each send, and whether more than one person needs to work the same inbox. This page breaks down what's really different between Pro, Autopilot and Team, including the seat minimum and the seat discount most people miss. Every figure below is stated as of this writing; treat /pricing as the number that overrides this page if the two ever disagree.

How AI Emaily's plans are structured#

Pro, Autopilot and Team aren't feature tiers in the usual SaaS sense, where the cheap plan is a crippled demo. All three run the same underlying agent, and Manual and Copilot look and behave identically whichever plan you're on. What changes is scope: how many mailboxes you can connect, how many AI credits you get each month, whether Autopilot mode is unlocked, and whether the account is one person or a team.

Pro is $12.42 a month billed annually ($149 a year), or $14.99 billed monthly. It's built around one person running more than one inbox, such as a founder with a personal and a company address, and includes up to 5 connected accounts and 1,000 AI credits a month. Pro does not include Autopilot at any inbox count: running five mailboxes on Pro still means every send goes through Copilot's approval step, because the gate is the plan, not the number of accounts.

Autopilot is $20.75 a month billed annually ($249 a year), or $24.99 billed monthly. It's still a single-person plan, but it adds Autopilot mode, handoff and follow-ups, up to 10 connected accounts, 2,000 AI credits a month, and bring-your-own-key (BYOK), so you can run AI on your own Anthropic, OpenAI or Google key without drawing on credits at all.

Team moves to a per-seat model: $14.92 per seat per month billed annually ($179 per seat a year), or $19.99 per seat billed monthly. Every seat gets everything in Autopilot, including Autopilot mode and BYOK, plus 1,500 AI credits per seat and the collaboration layer: shared inboxes, internal comments, human-or-agent delegation, shared context and per-mailbox access for each member. Team starts at 3 seats. If you've ever managed licenses in Google Workspace or Microsoft 365, the billing will feel familiar: you add a seat when you add a person, not when you add a mailbox.

Three structural points are easy to miss:

• Autopilot mode is not a Team-only feature. A solo user gets it on the Autopilot plan; Team includes it for every seat.
• Team has a 3-seat minimum, and at 5 seats or more the per-seat price drops by another 10%, to $13.43 a month billed annually or $17.99 billed monthly.
• Team's price is per seat, not per connected account. The owner can connect up to 10 mailboxes and each member up to 5 of their own.

Is AI Emaily billed monthly or annually?#

Either. Every paid plan has a monthly price and a lower annual one, and annual billing saves 16 to 25% depending on the plan. Pro is $14.99 monthly or $149 a year (about $12.42 a month). Autopilot is $24.99 monthly or $249 a year (about $20.75 a month). Team is $19.99 per seat monthly or $179 per seat a year (about $14.92 a seat a month).

The lower figures quoted throughout this page are the monthly equivalent of the annual price, which is how most SaaS vendors present annual plans. On annual billing you're charged once a year at that lower rate. You can switch between monthly and annual from the billing portal whenever it suits you.

If you want to test the product before committing to anything, Pro and Autopilot both start with a 7-day free trial: the full plan, agent included, on your real inbox. Cancel inside the 7 days and you won't be billed. Team has no trial, but every paid plan, Team included, comes with a 14-day money-back guarantee.

Why picking the right plan matters#

Under-plan and Autopilot never turns on, so every reply still waits for your approval even on routine threads you'd happily hand off. Over-plan and you're paying per seat for collaboration features nobody uses, which is real money on a five- or ten-person team.

Needs change. A Pro user decides they want hands-free follow-ups, or a solo operator hires a second person to share the inbox. Check /pricing or your billing portal for the current upgrade path between plans.

Four situations decide it in practice:

• One person, exploring whether an AI agent's drafts are usable at all: start the 7-day free trial on Pro or Autopilot, on the inbox you actually read every day.
• One person, several inboxes, happy to approve every send: Pro covers it, with Copilot drafting and up to 5 accounts.
• One person who wants routine replies and follow-ups handled without approving each one, or who wants BYOK: Autopilot, which is also the plan for anyone with 6 to 10 inboxes.
• Three or more people who share inboxes, delegate threads to each other or to the agent, and need roles and per-mailbox access: Team, which includes Autopilot for every seat.

Which plan fits which kind of inbox#

The plans map cleanly onto how inbox-overwhelmed professionals actually work:

• A solo consultant or investor running a personal address and a company one: Pro, since the constraint is inboxes, not autonomy.
• A founder or sales lead who wants routine replies sent without waiting on them, with undo and a record of what went out: Autopilot.
• An operator juggling many client mailboxes alone: Autopilot, for the 10-account limit and the larger credit pool.
• An agency, recruiting or support team sharing visibility into client or candidate threads: Team, priced per person rather than per client mailbox.

What Team actually costs at 3 and 5 seats#

Here's the same year in dollars, not just percentages, since '10% off' is the kind of line that's easy to nod along to without doing the multiplication. Team starts at 3 seats, so the smallest Team account is 3 × $14.92 = $44.76 a month on annual billing ($537 a year). The extra 10% only applies once the account reaches five seats.

If you're one or two people and want Autopilot, the Autopilot plan is the cheaper route: one person on Autopilot is $20.75 a month billed annually. Team earns its price when three or more people genuinely work the same inboxes.

Pro vs Autopilot vs Team, side by side#

The table below is the fastest way to see what actually changes between plans.

The takeaway: Pro to Autopilot is a step up in autonomy and capacity for one person; Autopilot to Team is a step from one person to a shared workspace. Team's price doesn't jump at some hidden tier either. It's a flat per-seat rate from 3 seats, with a straightforward percentage cut once you reach five, so budgeting for a sixth seat next quarter is just adding one more seat at the discounted rate.

What's included on every plan#

Some things don't change no matter which plan you're on:

• Provider coverage across Gmail, Outlook, iCloud, Yahoo, Fastmail and any IMAP account. The plan sets how many inboxes you connect, not which ones.
• No training on your mail, and zero-retention inference with model providers. Drafts use the voice and facts you set in your Personal Context and per-client profiles.
• Copilot, where the agent drafts and you approve every send, on every plan.
• An undo window and a full audit trail of agent actions, on every plan, not just Team.
• Web, macOS, Windows and iOS apps on every plan. A higher plan unlocks scope and autonomy, not a platform.

Common misconceptions about AI Emaily pricing#

There is no permanent free plan. Pro and Autopilot each start with a 7-day free trial, and after it the plan continues at its normal price unless you cancel. Team has no trial, so a team that wants to test first usually has one person trial Autopilot before buying seats.

Autopilot isn't locked to Team. The Autopilot plan exists precisely so one person can turn on Autopilot mode without buying seats; Team simply includes it for everyone on the account.

AI Emaily doesn't charge per connected mailbox. The price is per plan, or per seat on Team, not multiplied by how many inboxes that person connects. A Pro subscriber can add up to 5 accounts without a per-mailbox fee, and an Autopilot subscriber up to 10.

Team isn't a one- or two-person plan, and it doesn't need five seats to start either. The minimum is 3 seats; five is only the point where the extra 10% per-seat saving begins.

It's easy to assume the trial is a stripped 'inbox only' version with no AI at all, since many free email-AI tiers work that way. The 7-day free trial on Pro or Autopilot is the full plan you picked, agent included, so the agent helps from day one.

Credits running out doesn't stop your email. When a monthly pool hits zero, AI actions pause until the next billing cycle refreshes it, or you buy a top-up pack (from $9.99 for 500 credits) whose credits never expire. On Autopilot and Team, bringing your own key means credits stop applying altogether.

How this shows up in AI Emaily#

We build AI Emaily, and the plan structure above reflects where the product draws its trust boundary. Copilot, which drafts and waits for your approval, is on every plan because approval-before-send needs no extra safeguards. Autopilot, the mode that can send without a human clicking approve first, sits on the Autopilot and Team plans, always gated by rules you set, bounded, and reversible with undo and a full audit trail.

If you're deciding between Pro and Autopilot, the honest test isn't budget. It's whether you're ready to let the agent handle routine sends on its own, or whether you'd rather review every draft yourself a while longer. If you're deciding between Autopilot and Team, the test is simpler: do three or more people need to work the same inboxes? Every plan keeps the same zero-retention privacy posture; unlocking Autopilot changes what the agent is allowed to do, not what data it's allowed to keep. See what each autonomy mode actually does on /features/copilot-autopilot, or check current figures on /pricing.
