Pricing Comparison

Anytype

Free
Free

Storage: 100 MB remote file storage

Limits: 10 shared channels; no ANY ID name

Only files (images, video, attachments) count toward storage; once over 100 MB, new files stop syncing between devices.
Plus
$5/mo

Storage: 1 GB remote file storage

Limits: 1 GB fills quickly with images or video

$4/month if billed yearly ($48/year). App Store/Play Store prices are converted to local currency.
Pro
Popular
$10/mo

Storage: 10 GB remote file storage

$8/month if billed yearly ($96/year). If you don't renew, encrypted backups are deleted from the backup node after 30 days.
Ultra
$20/mo

Storage: 100 GB remote file storage

$16/month if billed yearly ($192/year).
Self-hosted
Free

Storage: Set by your own server configuration

Limits: Every device must be switched to the self-hosted network manually; Anytype recommends a separate identity per network

Server hosting and maintenance are on you; client updates have broken self-hosted sync in the past.

Logseq

Free
Popular
Free

Limits: No official sync; new DB features and invites go to paying backers first.

Official sync is not included; you have to sync files yourself with iCloud, Dropbox, Syncthing or Git, which risks conflicts.
Backer (Open Collective)
$5/mo

Limits: Sync and DB are still in beta; invites rolled out gradually.

Paid as a recurring Open Collective contribution, not a normal subscription; processor fees are deducted.
Sponsor (Open Collective)
$15/mo

Limits: Same beta software as Backers; the extra money mainly buys earlier access.
