Pricing
| Free tier | Starter plan: $0, 20 users max, 100 GB storage, 1,000 automations / month |
|---|---|
| Cheapest paid plan | — |
| Usage price | Basic $6, Pro $12 (billed annually); Enterprise via sales |
| Good to know | Priced as a workspace plan, not per API call; Lark Developer (Open Platform) is listed as included in every plan. API rate limits not read from an official page. Page shows $6 (Basic) without a unit; the add-on line says '$12 / user / month' for Meegle, so the plan price is probably per user but that is not stated. Add-ons: Base automation expansion $599 / 50k automation runs. |
