How that compares in Web Development
Too few web development 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.
| Tool | Entry price | Model | Rated | Head to head |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Next.js (this page) | Free | - | - | |
| Wix | Free, then $17/month | Per site per month | - | vs Next.js |

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 Next.js badges page.
Before you pay for Next.js
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.
Next.js runs on node.js, edge runtime, vercel, web browsers, and is published by Vercel Inc of San Francisco, CA. The full record is on the Next.js review, and the rest of the category is under best web development tools.
