The short version

  • Each has a real cost: CrewAI the free Basic tier caps at 50 workflow executions per month, with all higher usage requiring a custom Enterprise contract, as of August 2026.; Hevo Data billed on events ingested rather than on connectors or seats, so the bill tracks how chatty the sources are
