The short version

  • Only ClickUp has a free tier, so it costs nothing to try first.
  • Each has a real cost: Augment Code the $100 per month Business plan pools LLM inference, context engine and compute usage together and adds a 40 percent service fee on top of the provider's public API price, as of August 2026.; ClickUp the free plan is capped at 60MB of storage, 5 spaces, 1 form and 3 whiteboards, so the limits are structural rather than just a seat count
