Development tools are metered on what runs, and website builders on the site
Three pricing units run through this category. Code hosting and project tools charge per user: GitHub Team is $4 per user a month, Bitbucket Standard $3.65, Jira Standard $7.91 and Linear Basic $10 per user billed yearly. Infrastructure and observability products charge on consumption, with a seat or host price as the floor: Datadog’s Infrastructure Pro is $15 per host a month billed annually, New Relic bills data ingest at $0.40 per GB beyond the free 100 GB, Grafana Cloud’s Pro is from $19 a month plus usage, and Vercel’s Pro is $20 per developer seat with bandwidth at $0.15 per GB after the included terabyte. For these, the entry figure is the floor of the bill rather than the bill.
Website builders charge per site, and several add seats on top. Webflow’s Basic site plan is $15 a month billed yearly, with a Full seat at $39 and a Limited seat at $15 per seat charged separately; Framer’s Basic is $10 a month per site, and each extra editor is $20 a month.
WordPress.com publishes first-year prices. Its Personal plan is $4 a month for the first 12 months and renews at $8 a month on annual billing, and Business goes from $25 to $35. Astro and Next.js are free frameworks with no licence to renew; what they cost is hosting, set out on each profile.
