Todoist pricing at a glance
As of July 23, 2026, Todoist Pro costs $7 month to month or $60 billed yearly, which works out to $5 per month. Business costs $10 per user monthly or $96 yearly, equal to $8 per user per month.
Plan | Current price | Best for |
|---|---|---|
Beginner | $0 | Personal lists and five active projects |
Pro monthly | $7 per month | Individuals who want flexible billing |
Pro yearly | $60 per year, equal to $5 per month | The lowest Pro rate |
Business yearly | $96 per user per year, equal to $8 per month | Shared team workspaces and administration |
The free plan is useful enough for many individuals, which is why the upgrade decision usually comes down to project limits, reminders, calendar layout, and longer activity history.
How useful is Todoist’s free plan?
Todoist Beginner is permanent and free. It includes five personal projects, Smart Quick Add, flexible list and board layouts, three filter views, and basic collaboration. Pro raises the limits and adds features such as calendar layout and more reminders.
Is Todoist worth the price?
Todoist Pro is a relatively modest upgrade if Todoist is already the task system you open every day. It is harder to justify when the free plan covers your lists and the paid features would be occasional conveniences.
Todoist is probably worth it if…
You rely on recurring tasks, filters, reminders, and quick natural-language capture
You need more than five active personal projects
You want a mature app across nearly every platform
Todoist may not be worth it if…
The Beginner plan already handles your personal task load
You want tasks visually arranged beside your day rather than stored in projects
You are paying mainly for one small feature instead of using the whole Pro toolkit
Reliability earns loyalty. The free plan makes Pro work harder.
Long-time users praise Todoist’s fast capture and dependable cross-platform experience. Price criticism usually comes from people who like the app but cannot see enough distance between the generous free plan and a $60 annual subscription.

Alternatives if Todoist is not the right fit
Choose based on how you want to see work, not only where you want to store it.
Your real need | Try | Why it may fit better |
|---|---|---|
A visual daily plan | Tasks beside the calendar with a permanent free option | |
More built-in habits and focus tools | Tasks, habits, Pomodoro, and calendar features | |
A one-time Apple purchase | Polished personal task management without a subscription |
Ellie is our product. It is the better test when your problem is planning today around time, not organizing a deep project hierarchy. Todoist is stronger for fast capture, mature recurring tasks, filters, and broad platform support.
