  • Each has a real cost: Milanote the free plan caps the entire account at 100 notes, images or links and 10 file uploads rather than capping per board, so one properly worked project exhausts it and the tool stops working rather than degrading gracefully.; Pitch free plan is capped at a one time 100 AI credits and 2 external guests

Where each one falls short

Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.

Milanote

  • The free plan caps the entire account at 100 notes, images or links and 10 file uploads rather than capping per board, so one properly worked project exhausts it and the tool stops working rather than degrading gracefully.
  • The value of a board is its arrangement, and arrangement is the one thing export does not carry, so a PDF gives you a picture and a text export gives you the words while nothing reconstitutes the board in another tool.
  • Pricing is per person and the tool spreads naturally to reviewers and clients who only look and comment, so a team plan ends up covering people who never create anything.
  • There is no database layer, no properties, no filtering and no dependency tracking, so a project that starts on a Milanote board has to be re-entered somewhere else the moment it acquires owners and dates.
  • Offline support is minimal, so a board full of references is effectively unavailable without a connection, which is a real problem for a tool aimed at people who work on location and in meetings away from a desk.

Pitch

  • Free plan is capped at a one time 100 AI credits and 2 external guests
  • Enterprise features such as SAML based SSO and SCIM are gated behind a 30 plus seat custom plan
  • The 17 percent discount on Plus, Team and Business plans requires annual billing

Answered from the vendors’ own pages

Milanote: How long does the free plan last?

Indefinitely. It is limited by quantity rather than by time: 100 notes, images or links and 10 file uploads for the account as a whole, so it ends when you hit the cap rather than on a date.

Pitch: Is Pitch free to use?

Yes, Pitch's Free plan lets you create unlimited presentations forever. Paid plans (Plus, Team, Business) pricing varies by seat count and billing cycle.

Milanote: Can I export a board?

You can produce PDFs and images of a board and extract the text, but the spatial arrangement is not portable, so nothing you export reconstructs the board in another tool.

Pitch: Can I hire Pitch to build my presentation for me?

Pitch doesn't offer custom design services. Instead, users can leverage Pitch Agent for rapid presentation generation or select from 150+ templates. The company can recommend creative agencies familiar with the platform.

Source
Milanote: Is it a project management tool?

No. There are no dates, dependencies or workload views. It suits the thinking phase, and the work has to be handed to a tracker once it becomes a plan.

Pitch: Does Pitch offer a free trial?

Free trials are available to some customers depending on their needs. Contact support for eligibility information.

Source
Milanote: Do collaborators need paid accounts?

Shared boards are unlimited even on the free plan, and the paid question is about who creates rather than who looks. Confirm the current plan terms before rolling it out to a client's team.

Pitch: Can I import my existing deck, and in what format?

Yes, you can upload a PPTX file. Users coming from Google Slides, Keynote, or other tools should export to PPTX format first.
