The short version

  • Only Pi has a free tier, so it costs nothing to try first.
  • Each has a real cost: Airbnb guests pay a service fee of 14.1% to 16.5% of the booking subtotal on top of the nightly rate; Pi inflection AI's own homepage (2024 archive) pivoted its headline positioning to enterprise AI licensing rather than the consumer Pi assistant, with no consumer pricing or plans published on the corporate site
