Pro has been listed at about $10 a person a month on yearly billing since the first archived copy in 2020 ($9.95, then $119.99 a year, then $120), but what the price covers has changed: one person in 2020, up to five people from August 2021, and one person again by 2024, when a Teams tier at $100 a year per person with a three person minimum took over the group use. Enterprise had a $30 list price until it moved to contact sales in 2022. Most copies from March 2022 to March 2024 and all copies after March 2025 are rendered in the browser and carry no prices, and the live page blocks automated reads.

- Are design tools prices going up or down?
- Across the 4 plans we chart, list prices over the last three years are rising, by a median 12% a year. Increases outnumber cuts, 4 to 0.
- How are the price predictions calculated?
- Each plan gets a compound yearly rate of change between its first and latest observed list price within the last 36 months. The 6 and 12 month figures apply that rate to the latest price. Plans moving more than 100 percent a year are not projected, and a plan needs at least three observations spanning nine months. It is arithmetic on past list prices, not a forecast of what any company will do.
