The short version

  • Only ClickUp has a free tier, so it costs nothing to try first.
  • Each has a real cost: 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; Langfuse billing is metered per unit, where a unit is any trace, observation, or score sent to the platform; the free Hobby tier includes only 50,000 units per month before graduated per-unit charges apply, as of August 2026.
