Notion vs Asana: Pricing Compared in 2026

Verified 2026-07-27 · by Sebastian Bru

Both tools do broadly the same job. The gap that matters for most teams is what they cost once seat minimums and user caps are applied.

What neither pricing page tells you

Notion: The $8 standalone AI add-on was discontinued in 2026. Full AI now requires the Business plan at $20, doubling the cost for teams that only wanted AI.

Notion: Custom Agents bill separately at $10 per 1,000 credits per month, and unused credits do not roll over.

Asana: The free plan caps at 10 users. Team number 11 pushes you to a paid plan for everyone, not just the new person.

Asana: Time tracking is only on Advanced, at more than double the Starter price. Many teams discover this after committing.

Before you compare on price alone The cheapest plan is not the same plan on both sides. Check what each tier actually includes before treating these numbers as equivalent.
