  • Only Paperform has a free tier, so it costs nothing to try first.
  • Each has a real cost: Paperform free plan caps at 30 submissions per month and 100 MB of storage; Workato the pricing page names four product lines, Enterprise iPaaS, Agentic solutions, API Management and Data Orchestration, and publishes no figure for any of them, gating all of it behind Schedule a demo
