Airtable has steadily tightened free plan limits while raising paid plan prices. Here's the complete record:
Airtable's 100% entry-tier price increase (from $10 to $20/editor) eliminated its position as the "affordable spreadsheet database." NocoDB (open source), Notion databases, and Google Sheets are seeing increased interest from teams priced out of Airtable.
For companies selling database or CRM tools in the SMB space, Q3 2025 created a window: Airtable customers on Plus who renewed to Team at double the price were very receptive to switching conversations. The teams that ran targeted campaigns within 2 weeks of the plan change saw measurable upticks in trial signups.
The February 2026 record limit cut created another smaller window — teams with growing databases who hit the new 1,000-record limit were suddenly forced to evaluate alternatives.

Set up Airtable alert — free See how it worksAs of February 2026, the Airtable free plan allows 1,000 records per base (reduced from 1,200). You can have multiple bases, each with up to 1,000 records. There's no hard limit on the number of bases on the free plan, though storage is limited to 1GB total.
It depends on your use case. If you need more than 1,000 records per base, automations, or sharing with external collaborators, the 50K record limit and expanded automation runs make Team ($20/editor/mo) a significant functional upgrade. However, for teams primarily needing a database with basic views, alternatives like Notion databases ($10/user/mo) or NocoDB (open source) may be more cost-effective.
No. Commenters and read-only viewers are free on all Airtable plans. You only pay for editor seats — users who can create, edit, and delete records. This makes Airtable cost-effective for teams where only a few people actively manage data while many need to view it.
Airtable discontinued the Plus plan ($10/editor/mo) in Q3 2025, replacing it with the Team plan at $20/editor/mo. Existing Plus subscribers were automatically migrated to Team pricing at their next billing renewal. There was no grandfathering at the old Plus rate.
Airtable Team ($20/editor) vs Notion Business ($18/member) is a close comparison. Airtable has more robust relational database features, formulas, and automation. Notion combines database functionality with document editing in one tool. If your primary use case is structured data management, Airtable is typically stronger. For knowledge management that happens to include databases, Notion is often a better fit.
Airtable's free tier cuts came alongside broader price increases across the SaaS market:
