This free tier is genuinely usable, but it is tightly capped at 250 active profiles and 500 email sends per month, so its practical value is well below the cheapest paid plan. The entry paid plan starts around $20/month, and the free offering gives a meaningful starter slice of that capability plus limited SMS credit and support for the first 60 days, so about $20/month is a fair buyer-side estimate. A credit card is not called out as required, and the plan is perpetual as long as the usage caps are respected.
