Monthly prices as published on 28 August 2026, rounded, before tax. $ and € are counted as one unit. Annual plans, team seats and free tiers will move your real number.
What the numbers do and don’t say
Subscriptions buy you continuous model upgrades, someone else’s infrastructure and, usually, cross-platform apps. That is worth real money — especially if an employer is paying. The calculator is not an argument that subscriptions are a scam; it is an argument that the monthly number is the wrong unit for a tool you will still be using in 2031.
Prices were checked on 28 August 2026 on each vendor’s own pricing page and are rounded. Dollar and euro figures are treated as the same unit here — this is an order-of-magnitude tool, not an invoice. Team plans, annual discounts and taxes will move your real number.
