puppyone's free plan is tight: 1 project, 1 member and 3 agent access points, with CLI, API and MCP access starting at the Developer tier. Sandbox compute is usage-based on paid plans, and the macOS desktop app needs Apple Silicon and macOS 13+.
Notion AI is a workspace with AI search and meeting notes, with a free tier and Plus at $12 per member per month. Cursor is an AI code editor with a free Hobby tier and Individual (Pro) at $20 per month. GitHub Copilot's Copilot Pro is $10 per user per month, with a free tier. n8n is workflow automation for AI agents, cloud or self-hosted, with a free tier and no price stated; like puppyone, it can be self-hosted.

Taken from the documented limitations in our puppyone profile.
| Tool | Starting price | Free tier | Platforms | Main limitation |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| puppyone (this page) | $19/mo (Developer) | Yes | Web, Desktop, API | Free plan is limited to 1 project, 1 member and 3 agent access points, with CLI, API and MCP access from the Developer tier. |
| Notion AI | $12/mo (Plus) | Yes | Web, Desktop, Mobile | Full AI needs Business or Enterprise, and even there a rolling six-hour and monthly usage allowance applies; premium models, Custom Agents and Workers consume separately purchased Notion credits. |
| Cursor | From $20/mo (Individual (Pro)) | Yes | Desktop | Hobby has only limited Agent requests, and usage beyond the included amount is billed on demand. |
| GitHub Copilot | $10/mo (Copilot Pro) | Yes | Web, Desktop, Mobile | Chat, agents, code review and CLI all draw from a monthly GitHub AI Credits allowance that varies by model and task, so heavy agent use can exhaust a plan mid-month and require paid extra usage or an upgrade. |
| n8n | Not published | Yes | Web, API | Cloud plans capped by monthly executions (e.g. 2.5K on Starter); Business plan self-hosted only. |
