  • Each has a real cost: Tana the free plan hosts only 5 meetings a month with AI transcripts and summaries; TeamViewer pricing page gates all figures behind plan selection with no listed price for its Teams and Tensor Enterprise tiers, which are described as a fully customized license requiring sales contact
