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.

Novu pricing

Novu publishes 3 tiers. Below is each one, what it adds over the tier beneath it, and where the ladder stops being worth climbing for most people.

Entry price: Free, then $30/month
Model: Freemium
Tiers: 3
Free tier: Yes

Novu 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.

Novu pricing tiers
Plan	Price	Features listed	Step up from the tier below
Free	Free	5	Entry tier
Pro	$30/month	4	+$30/month, 4 more features
Team	$250/month	4	+$220/month, 4 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.

What the product covers

The full Novu 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.

security

Role-based access control

People bring Novu in for building multi-channel notification workflows for a saas product, self-hosting notification infrastructure for data control, managing separate notification environments for staging and production, tracking notification delivery history and activity. If that is not the job you are buying for, the alternatives to Novu are worth a look before you commit to a tier.

How that compares in Communication & Collaboration

Too few communication & collaboration 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 Novu badges page.

Before you pay for Novu

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 $250/month, 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.

Novu runs on web, api, and is published by Novu. The full record is on the Novu review, and the rest of the category is under best communication & collaboration tools.
