What every SaaS pricing page should include, and how AI startups can explain usage-based limits clearly.

A strong SaaS pricing page shows three clear plans, highlights the most popular one, lists what each plan includes, offers a monthly and yearly toggle, and answers billing questions in an FAQ. For AI products, it also helps to explain usage limits plainly, so buyers aren’t surprised later.

Key takeaways

  • Three plans are easier to compare than five.

  • Highlight one recommended plan.

  • Explain limits in plain language, especially for AI usage.

  • Add a full comparison table and a billing FAQ.

How should AI startups price their plans?

Common models include per seat, per usage, and flat tiers based on capacity. AI products often price by active agents, tasks, or credits. Whichever you choose, describe it in terms your buyer understands, such as “3 active agents” instead of an abstract unit.

Should you offer a free trial?

A free trial lowers the barrier to trying the product, especially for self-serve buyers. Make the trial length clear and say whether a credit card is required.

How does the Lumora template handle pricing?

Lumora includes a pricing section with three plans, a highlighted Most Popular plan, a monthly and yearly toggle, a detailed plan comparison table, and a pricing-specific FAQ.

Frequently asked questions

How many pricing plans should a SaaS product have?

Three is the most common choice: an entry plan, a growth plan, and a custom or enterprise plan.

Should I show prices for enterprise plans?

Most companies show “Custom” for enterprise plans and invite buyers to talk to sales.

What discount should yearly billing offer?

Many SaaS companies offer around 15 to 20 percent off for yearly billing.
