Bardeen has three paid plans and no free plan or free trial
Bardeen comes with three paid plans with one starting price. Your total cost will depend on the number of credits, which we’ll cover in a second. You can’t get a free trial or Bardeen, and a free plan doesn’t exist either.
The Basic plan starts at $10/user/month and helps you eliminate repetitive tasks
This is the entry plan, and it’s free to use, so you can start automating tasks without a commitment. It’s best for individuals or teams who want to test Bardeen’s automation capabilities, build playbooks, and learn how the platform works before paying for more credits.
Features included
- Free access with 100 credits per month for live automation use
- Unlimited time in builder mode to create and test workflows without using credits
- Core automation actions and integrations with common web apps
- Ability to export results to Google Sheets and run basic scrapers and workflows
Who this is best for
- Individuals exploring automation
- People who run only occasional automations and don’t need the advanced lead generation features
- Teams or operators who want low-risk testing of workflows
The Premium plan starts at $40/user/month and unleashes the full no-code automation platform
The Premium plan is designed for users who need to run automations regularly and hit the free plan’s credit limit. It adds significantly more credit capacity and access to enhanced automation tools.
Features included
- Paid tier with higher monthly credits than the free plan (e.g., 1,000 credits and up, depending on billing choice)
- Expanded capabilities for web scraping, enrichment, and AI-powered automation
- Access to premium integrations with more apps and services, saving time since you don’t switch back and forth between apps
- More credits allow more actions per automation without hitting limits
What changes compared to Basic
- Substantially larger credit number for executing live automations
- Premium automation actions and integrations not available on the free plan
- Better suited for ongoing usage rather than one-off tests
Who this is best for
- Professionals running regular workflows and complicated automations
- Users automating large tasks like lead sourcing, data enrichment, or scheduling processes
The Enterprise plan has custom pricing
Enterprise is the highest tier, tailored for organisations with heavy automation needs, custom requirements, and enterprise-grade support. Plans are quoted based on your usage and credit requirements.
Features included
- Everything in Premium
- Custom bulk credits tailored to high-volume usage and complex workflows
- Dedicated support and managed services if needed
- Options for custom workflows, priority onboarding, and enterprise, advanced integrations
What changes compared to Premium

How Bardeen credits work
Bardeen uses a credit system as the unit you spend when you run automations and scrape data to avoid manual work. Each time a workflow runs live and performs actions, you pay with credits from your monthly allowance. This lets the platform meter usage instead of just counting seats or flat features.
What a credit represents
Every step in an automation that produces results costs 1 credit per row/action. For example, scraping a list or exporting a result uses credits as they run.
Enrichment actions that fetch extra data typically cost 3 credits per row because they package more work for the advanced features.
Importing or moving data and using utilities does not use credits, so you can handle those parts without eating into your limit.
Monthly limits and resets
Your plan gives you a bucket of credits each month. When you run automations in production, those credits are used until the bucket runs out, and then they reset at the start of the next billing period.
You can build and test workflows as much as you want in builder mode without spending any credits. This means you only start using credits once you are ready to run them.
Managing your credits
You can always see how many credits you’ve used and how many remain in the Bardeen sidebar so you don’t accidentally exhaust your allowance mid workflow.
If you hit the credit limit in a month, premium automations pause until the next cycle rather than charging extra fees.
In short, credits are the way Bardeen measures what you run, so pricing scales with how much automation work you actually do, and you only spend them when workflows run for real.
