# AI writing tool cost estimator

Enter your team size and a published plan to see the monthly and yearly cost. Preset prices come from each vendor's own site, fetched on 2026-11-13. The estimator shows list price only; it is not a quote.

Use the tool on the [web page](https://aiwriting.fyi/tools/ai-writing-cost-estimator). It works without JavaScript.

## How to use it

1. Enter seats or users.
2. Choose plan.
3. Enter custom monthly price.
4. Enter words you need per month.
5. Read the result.

## How it works

Monthly cost is seats times the plan's monthly price. Yearly cost is the monthly total times 12. The estimator reads list prices only; taxes, add-ons and usage overages are not included.

Preset prices come from each vendor's own site, fetched on 2026-11-13. Rytr (rytr.me) lists Free at 10,000 characters a month, Lite $9, Personal $19 and Pro $49. Wordtune (wordtune.com/plans) lists a free Basic plan and Advanced at about $4.89 a month billed yearly. Copy.ai (copy.ai/pricing) lists Chat at $29 a month or $24 a month billed yearly.

The character estimate uses 6 characters per word, a common average for English text including spaces. Rytr's free limit is stated in characters; other vendors state limits in credits, articles, rewrites or seats, so compare units before you compare totals.

Enter the seats or units the selected plan actually covers, not the size of your company, or the estimate will overstate the cost.

> An estimate from public list prices fetched on 2026-11-13, not a quote. Vendors change prices and bill in different units. Check the vendor's pricing page and terms before you buy.

## Questions

### Is this a quote?

No. It is a planning estimate from published list prices fetched on 2026-11-13. Get a written quote or check the vendor's page for your exact plan.

### Why do some plans bill in credits or characters?

Vendors meter usage differently. Rytr's free tier bills in characters and Wordtune in rewrites and generations. A dollar price only compares cleanly when the unit matches your usage.

### Should I choose monthly or yearly billing?

Yearly billing is cheaper per month but is a longer commitment. Check the refund rule on the vendor's own terms page before you buy.
