What is on record
The Safari catalogue entry carries no price and a free pricing model, but no tier breakdown. The category comparison below is still useful, and the Safari review carries the full feature record.
What the product covers
The full Safari feature record, grouped as the catalogue groups it. This is the product as a whole; the record does not map every feature onto a specific tier.
Other
- WebKit engine
- Intelligent Tracking Prevention
- Energy optimisation
- iCloud Private Relay
- Passkeys in iCloud Keychain
- Handoff and tab sync
- Profiles and Tab Groups
- Web Inspector
People bring Safari in for getting the longest battery life out of a macbook, where the difference against chromium browsers is hours rather than minutes, debugging a site on a real iphone or ipad, which requires safari's web inspector connected over usb from a mac, an all-apple household or team that wants tabs, passwords and passkeys to follow them across devices without a third-party account, privacy-conscious users on icloud+ who want tracking protection and private relay working by default rather than through extensions. If that is not the job you are buying for, the alternatives to Safari are worth a look before you commit to a tier.
How that compares in Technology
Too few technology tools in this directory publish a starting price to quote a meaningful median, so the table below is a like-for-like list rather than a ranking.

Ratings are aggregated from third-party sources and imported with each catalogue entry, they are not reviews hosted on Softwr. How each figure is used is set out on the Safari badges page.
Before you pay for Safari
Three things this page cannot tell you, and all three change the bill. The record carries a price and a billing period but not the unit - per-seat and flat-rate pricing are indistinguishable in this data, so a five-person team may be looking at five times the figure above. It carries no annual rate, so any discount for paying yearly is not something this page can quote. And it carries no trial length.
What it can tell you is the shape of the ladder: not published on the record we hold. Because there is a free tier, the cheapest way to answer the rest is to use it before paying anything.
Safari runs on not recorded. The full record is on the Safari review, and the rest of the category is under best technology tools.
