Insomnia plans, side by side
Every published tier in ascending order of price, with the number of features each one lists. An absence here means the record does not itemise it, not that the tier lacks it.
| Plan | Price | Features listed | Step up from the tier below |
|---|---|---|---|
| Free | Free | 2 | Entry tier |
| Pro | $5/monthly | 3 | +$5/monthly, 3 more features |
| Team | $30/monthly | 3 | +$25/monthly, 3 more features |
What each tier adds
The set difference between each tier's feature list and the one beneath it. Where a tier lists nothing new, the vendor has either stopped repeating the inherited list or the tier raises limits rather than adding capability, the record does not distinguish the two, so this page does not either.

People bring Insomnia in for sending and debugging http, graphql and grpc requests, storing collections in git rather than a vendor cloud, mocking an api endpoint before it exists, running collections in ci with the inso cli, environment management across staging and production. If that is not the job you are buying for, the alternatives to Insomnia are worth a look before you commit to a tier.
Before you pay for Insomnia
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: 3 tiers between Free and $30/monthly, with the jump itemised above. Because there is a free tier, the cheapest way to answer the rest is to use it before paying anything.
Insomnia runs on windows, macos, linux, web, and is published by Kong Inc. of San Francisco, California, USA. The full record is on the Insomnia review.
Insomnia pricing questions
- How much does Insomnia cost?
- Insomnia publishes 3 tiers, from Free for Free up to $30/monthly for Team. The entry tier costs nothing.
- Does Insomnia have a free plan?
- Yes. The Free tier costs nothing and covers rest, graphql, grpc support, local data. Paying starts at $5/monthly for Pro.
- What is the difference between Free and Pro on Insomnia?
- Pro costs $5/monthly against Free, and adds cloud sync, team collaboration, advanced features.
- Is the Team plan on Insomnia worth it?
- That depends entirely on whether you need what it adds, which on the published record is team management, advanced analytics, priority support. It costs $30/monthly against $5/monthly for Pro. Softwr has not used either tier, so this page can tell you what changes, not whether it is worth the difference to you.
- What am I actually paying for with Insomnia?
- The record lists 10 features across 3 areas: core, integrations, platform. In practice it is brought in for sending and debugging http, graphql and grpc requests, storing collections in git rather than a vendor cloud, mocking an api endpoint before it exists.
- Does Insomnia charge per user?
- The record carries a price and a billing period for each of its 3 tiers, but not the unit that price is charged in. Per-seat and flat-rate billing look identical in this data, so check the vendor's page before budgeting for a team.
- Are these Insomnia prices current?
- They are what the catalogue entry holds, refreshed when the entry is. Vendors change pricing without notice and nobody at Softwr re-verifies each tier by hand, so treat this as a structured summary and the vendor's own pricing page as the authority.
- What should I compare Insomnia against before paying?
- Nothing else in this directory is filed close enough to Insomnia to make a useful price comparison.
