Lindy Pricing Explained (2026): $49.99 per User, Credits in One Pool

Lindy pricing starts with $50 in free credits for 7 days, then $49.99 per active user per month for 5,000 credits. Every active user is billed. Each seat adds its credits to one shared pool. Top-ups are $10 per 1,000 credits. Monthly credits refresh and do not roll over. Top-up credits stay until you use them. If the pool runs out, Lindy pauses credit-using actions. There is no surprise overage on the page read October 24, 2026.

Those sentences are from Lindy’s pricing page and its FAQ, fetched October 24, 2026. A product review published the same day described a slider whose first printed row was $29.99 for 3,000 credits. This article uses the FAQ’s starting line, because that is the sentence the page states in prose. If your screen shows a lower slider row, price the row you will buy and screenshot it. The product page is Lindy review.

The FAQ also says you pick the monthly credits the team needs, starting at 5,000 for $49.99. Larger packs exist. The page fetched for this article did not print a full slider in text, so this table stops at the starting line. A cent per credit at $49.99 for 5,000 matches the $10 top-up. If a larger pack on your screen is well under a cent, that row is the volume discount. Do the division before you top up every week.

Who counts as a seat

Anyone who uses Lindy takes a seat: a direct signup, someone who joins the workspace, or someone who @mentions Lindy in Slack. The FAQ says new teammates who join through Slack get a 7-day free trial before the seat is billed, and direct signups are billed right away. The free week is once per teammate. Someone who leaves and returns goes onto a billed seat.

Credits are pooled. An admin can set an allocation per seat. Removing a seat keeps it active through the cycle already paid, with no mid-cycle proration, on that FAQ. One workspace subscription, one bill.

The Team card lists model choice, computer use, and live onboarding. A feature list on the same page also says “computer use on Pro and Max.” Those names do not match the Team / Enterprise cards in the FAQ. Confirm which plan name your checkout uses before you tell a buyer that computer use is on the $49.99 line.

Anything with outside impact waits for approval: sending an email, updating a ticket, posting to a channel, publishing a doc. Read-only lookups from approved sources do not. That split is the guardrail. The definition is what AI guardrails are.

Lindy next to a workflow tool

Zapier Professional is $19.99 a month annually for 750 tasks. Make Core is from $9 a month annually for 10,000 credits. n8n Starter is €20 a month billed annually for 2,500 executions. This article does not convert the euro price. Those three run a path you can draw. Lindy is the step where the next action depends on the text, and a person still approves the send. The comparison is Zapier vs Make vs n8n. Leaving n8n for an agent is n8n alternatives.

Stack them when the systems differ: n8n or Make for the record, Lindy for a draft a person sends. Stacking them on the same inbox produces two emails.

Credit sizes on Lindy’s own examples, from the page read October 24: everyday asks about 2 to 250 credits, deeper work about 250 to 1,000, and larger builds about 1,000 to 2,500. A 5,000-credit seat is a handful of deep tasks, or many short ones. Heavier models spend faster. Watch the first real runs, then move the pack. The agent explainer is what an AI agent is.
