Mem.ai Pricing: Free, Plus, Pro and Every Higher-Capacity Plan

Mem.ai pricing at a glance

Mem.ai, currently marketed through Mem Agent and Mem Workspace, bills for a personal knowledge assistant rather than merely the number of saved pages. Its public pricing page lists seven current main plans. The headline subscription fee is only the beginning of a useful comparison because monthly activity is divided among messages, newly created notes, task-analysis coverage, simultaneously open tasks, Voice Mode capture hours, scheduled routines and connected sources. A buyer must track each separately.

The current published prices are Free $0, Plus $9, Pro $29, Pro 2× $49, Pro 5× $99, Pro 10× $149 and Pro 20× $199 per month. These are the amounts on the live public grid checked in November 2026. Older articles describing a single $12 Pro plan or a custom Teams package do not represent this grid. Do not use a historical plan screenshot or unverified annual discount to calculate a new account budget.

Mem Free: small but useful trial workload

The Free plan allows 25 Messages to Mem and 25 new notes each month. Mem can review up to 25 notes for task and project detection and track 15 open tasks or projects at the same time. It also permits three hours of Voice Mode. These numbers are independent limits, so a user who captures 20 notes and asks the agent 30 questions can exceed the message cap without approaching the note cap. It is better understood as a constrained monthly workflow than as unlimited free note storage.

Deep Search and templates remain available on Free according to the vendor’s FAQ. That makes it enough to sample semantic recall and basic organization without paying. It is less suitable for someone taking several meeting recordings every day or sending many emails into the workspace. A representative test week should include the actual number of ideas, reminders, forwarded emails and recorded meetings a user normally produces, not just ten artificially short notes.

Mem Plus: $9 for everyday capture

Mem Plus costs $9 per month and doubles basic message and new-note allowances to 50 each. It tracks tasks across up to 50 reviewed notes, maintains 25 open tasks/projects and allows ten Voice Mode hours. This tier fits a solo user who captures a modest stream of notes and records some meetings but does not need Mem to run scheduled custom routines or connect to outside work accounts. Those automation options do not appear at Plus in the official comparison.

The most important comparison is not simply 50 versus 25 notes. A user who repeatedly asks detailed follow-up questions might spend the 50-message allowance early, even if their note creation is low. Conversely, someone capturing many short snippets may exhaust new notes while leaving most voice hours unused. Check which activity actually drives the upgrade before assuming that doubling every limit gives twice the business value.

Mem Pro: $29 and the automation threshold

Mem Pro is $29 per month with 100 agent messages, 100 new notes, tracking for 100 notes, 50 open tasks and 25 Voice Mode hours. It is also the first listed plan with one Custom Routine, 50 routine executions and one Connection. A routine can prepare a scheduled briefing or reminder; a connection brings external context from a supported source such as Gmail, Slack or Todoist. This is the plan where Mem’s proactive assistant proposition becomes more complete.

For a consultant who wants a weekly briefing assembled from notes and connected work, the $20 jump from Plus can be easier to justify than a pure increase in note limits. But the single connection matters: linking two important sources may require Pro 2×. Test whether a routine gives correct context and whether the connection’s permission scope meets policy. An automated briefing that contains inaccurate follow-ups can create more correction time than it saves.

Mem Pro 2×: $49 for two active routines and connections

Pro 2× costs $49 monthly and offers 200 messages, 200 new notes, tracking across 200 notes, 100 open tasks, 50 hours of voice capture, two routines, 100 routine executions and two connections. This may be the useful midpoint for someone whose work spans separate email and task services or whose weekly routine must coexist with a daily briefing. The doubling applies to most capacities but is not a claim of unlimited storage or processing.

Consider the total monthly value against two separate tools: a specialized meeting transcriber and a simpler notebook could sometimes cost less, especially when agent conversations are sparse. On the other hand, having meeting context, note retrieval and task reminders in one location may reduce copying. Assess value through real tasks completed and corrected, not the marketing word “2×” alone. The published price is per month; verify terms at purchase.

Mem Pro 5×: $99 for substantial knowledge capture

At $99 per month, Pro 5× lists 500 agent messages and new notes, tracking across 500 notes, 250 open tasks, five routines, 250 routine executions, five connections and 125 Voice Mode hours. This is a substantial step in both price and activity capacity. A founder managing many projects or a consultant with frequent meetings could plausibly use more voice hours, but this plan is expensive if most work remains in a conventional document editor.

Before upgrading, estimate the previous month’s usage for each counter. If voice is the only constraint, investigate whether a dedicated recording service offers a more suitable pricing model. If routines are the limiting factor, check how many must run simultaneously and how frequently. Treat the quoted capacities as an envelope, not a performance benchmark. The vendor does not promise that automated task extraction is accurate across every source.

Mem Pro 10×: $149 for heavy personal workflows

Pro 10× costs $149 monthly. The live grid lists 1,000 messages, 1,000 new notes, tracking for 1,000 notes, 500 open tasks, ten routines, 500 routine executions, ten connections and 250 Voice Mode hours. This scale suits an unusually intensive personal workflow or professional operator handling many interactions and documents. It may look like a team product, but the public grid is framed around increasing one person’s capacity rather than published enterprise seat management.

A purchasing review at this price should examine permission management, external data access and the opportunity cost of time spent checking generated actions. If several employees need collaboration, a shared workspace application may be more appropriate than separate high-capacity personal agents. Determine whether reminders can be assigned and audited in the required manner. Mem’s agent-oriented pitch does not by itself establish a formal project-management or business records system.

Mem Pro 20×: $199 plus optional Extra Usage

The top packaged tier is Pro 20× at $199 monthly. It lists 2,000 messages, 2,000 new notes, tracking for 2,000 notes, 1,000 open tasks, twenty routines, 1,000 routine executions, twenty connections and 500 Voice Mode hours. The vendor explicitly offers Extra Usage units here, at $50 for each added monthly block. Those units do not appear as a generic overage mechanism for all lower subscriptions.

One $50 unit adds 500 messages, 500 new notes, tracking capacity for 500 notes, 250 open tasks, five routines, 250 routine executions, five connections and 125 voice hours. Two units would raise a $199 subscription to $299 per month if charged together for the same period. That calculation is arithmetic from the public rates, not a verified invoice. Confirm proration and billing treatment in the account before setting a recurring budget.

Messages to Mem: easy to underestimate

A Message to Mem is broader than a typed chat bubble. The pricing description counts push-to-talk requests, messages in floating chat, external-channel messages such as WhatsApp and email sent to Mem. Each of these draws from the same message allowance. Someone using Mem to capture ten voice snippets, ask fifteen follow-up questions and forward fifteen emails has already generated forty counted interactions, before deciding whether new notes were created.

This matters most when a user relies on the agent as a daily inbox rather than a once-a-week note search. Count the actual prompts sent through all channels. If a workflow generates many automated incoming items, verify which are individually counted. A plan with hundreds of notes but a smaller message budget can still interrupt the user at an awkward moment. The vendor says it warns as users approach limits and offers higher plans.

New notes and task-analysis limits are different

The new-note allowance counts items created during the month. Task and Project Tracking counts notes reviewed by the agent for detection, including notes created or edited in the billing period. Open Tasks and Projects is a separate cap on work the agent actively tracks at once. These are not three labels for the same number. An old note edited this month may add tracking activity without becoming a new note, depending on the operation and vendor accounting.

Set up a budget worksheet with one column for new notes, one for tracked notes and one for open tasks. A solo consultant might create only thirty notes but keep dozens of projects active. A researcher might create hundreds of source notes but track very few tasks. The right tier depends on these differences, and the public comparison provides numeric limits for all three. Do not assume unused capacity in one category transfers to another.

Voice Mode hours and meeting volume

Mem’s Voice Mode captures audio within a note and can create a structured transcript and organized note content. Free includes three hours monthly, Plus ten, Pro twenty-five, Pro 2× fifty, Pro 5× 125, Pro 10× 250 and Pro 20× 500. An hour-long meeting uses an hour of allowance; it is not priced according to the number of sentences preserved. Estimate total permitted recording time, including planning calls and ad hoc idea sessions.

For an individual recording ten one-hour meetings per month, Plus may cover the voice allocation but message or note limits could still be reached. For thirty hours, Pro’s 25-hour voice cap would be insufficient even when its 100 messages seem generous. Do not record confidential conversations without authorization or consent where required. Ask whether audio and transcripts can be deleted and confirm the organization’s retention policy before enabling routine recording.

What Custom Routines and Connections actually buy

Custom Routines are scheduled background tasks that can prepare briefs, do research, create or organize notes and send reminders. The routine-execution allowance limits how many scheduled runs occur, distinct from the number of routine definitions allowed to remain active. Connections bring information from supported outside services into Mem’s context, potentially helping the agent detect completed tasks or prepare follow-ups from more than the note workspace.

The critical buying question is not how many services are displayed in a connector gallery. It is whether access permissions, refresh behavior and error handling meet the user’s needs. A connection to email or a team chat could expose sensitive business content to the AI processing layer. Test a limited account and verify exactly which messages are available before connecting a production mailbox. Pro unlocks one of each; larger tiers expand both counts.

Deep Search and templates are not premium-only

Mem’s pricing FAQ explicitly says Deep Search and templates are available on every plan. Therefore a person who only wants to find previously saved notes by meaning should test Free before spending on Pro. The paid threshold is mainly greater activity capacity, additional voice hours and, from Pro onward, scheduled routines and connected context. That distinction is important because historical marketing for Mem 2.0 often focused on search and chat features without today’s separate usage ladder.

A useful test for Deep Search includes exact phrases, paraphrased questions, two notes about similar subjects and a question whose answer is absent from the vault. Confirm that returned passages identify the correct source and that an assistant does not confidently invent information. These checks establish whether retrieval is useful for the buyer’s collection. The presence of search on Free does not guarantee that the same content or answer behavior will suit every person.

Can Mem export notes and preserve ownership?

Mem’s current pricing FAQ states that notes and collections can be exported in one click as Markdown files. That is a meaningful option for an app used as a personal knowledge archive. A text-based export can be easier to inspect and move than a proprietary database, although metadata, audio, assistant routines and connected-account context may not transfer as simple Markdown. Test a sample with links, headings and a collection before relying on export for disaster recovery.

A practical backup plan separates the words you wrote from the service’s derived intelligence. A future alternative may read the Markdown notes but cannot necessarily reproduce Mem’s automatic task recognition, reminders and contextual follow-up schedule. Before committing years of research, ask what gets exported, whether original attachment files are included and what happens on account cancellation. Keep critical information in a form the user can recover independently.

Privacy and encryption affect the plan choice

Mem says notes are encrypted at rest using AES-256 and in transit using TLS. Its pricing FAQ also explicitly says notes are not end-to-end encrypted, because Mem must process the user’s content to provide its intelligence. That is a clear technical tradeoff. It means users should not treat the workspace as a zero-knowledge local vault, even though the service applies conventional encryption protections.

Before storing client contracts, patient records, passwords or other sensitive notes, review applicable confidentiality policies and Mem’s published privacy and service terms. Ask who can access data for operations, how long retained content persists, what connected applications can send and whether organizational agreements are available. An AI assistant that surfaces useful context from unstructured notes necessarily has some access to information being processed. This should be an intentional decision.

Real monthly cost examples

A casual user with roughly twenty notes, twenty agent messages and two hours of recording fits within the published Free allowances if the task-tracking counters also remain below their caps. A creator with forty notes, forty messages and eight voice hours may fit Plus at $9 if they do not need custom routines. A consultant using one scheduled weekly briefing and one outside connection needs at least Pro at $29, even if message volume is relatively low.

A heavy operator needing six simultaneous routines cannot fit Pro 5× because that plan allows only five; Pro 10× at $149 becomes a candidate. Someone at the top tier with one Extra Usage block would have a nominal $249 monthly subscription. These are illustrative scenarios, not measured billable events. Check the exact account counters and regional checkout, then compare the full productivity value against separate meeting capture, task management and note software.

Billing terms, cancellation and old plan names

Mem’s current terms govern subscriptions and renewals, with fees generally non-refundable and some exceptions handled by the company. Store-billed subscriptions can have separate platform procedures. The current public pricing page shows monthly amounts and does not expose a verified annual price schedule, so the familiar calculation of twelve times monthly price is only a hypothetical yearly spend if the same monthly fee continues. Do not label it a vendor annual plan.

Some existing subscribers may still refer to legacy Mem plans or former Pro pricing. The live November 2026 tier list should be the starting point for new subscriptions, but an existing user should confirm whether their account remains on different terms before making changes. Export important notes before cancellation or deletion, and verify what happens to premium routines and connected context. A new pricing article cannot replace the subscriber-specific contract.

Mem versus other knowledge-management tools on value

A note-taking app is usually valued by capture, retrieval, editing, ownership and collaboration. Mem adds proactive detection and follow-up, which makes its pricing different from a plain Markdown editor. Obsidian emphasizes local files and linking, while Notion offers documents, databases and team collaboration. Evernote supplies broad capture and developing AI features. A buyer should decide whether the agent’s reminders are worth paying for or whether existing notes plus a task manager are enough.

Avoid comparing one product’s free storage with another product’s paid agent quota as if they were the same commodity. Record the exact use case: find a decision from last month, turn a conversation into action items, produce a weekly brief or maintain a shared project wiki. Then compare completion time, accuracy, privacy and export. Only a demonstrated benefit justifies a higher monthly capacity tier.

Pricing methodology and verification

The seven plan amounts and quotas in this article come from Mem’s current official pricing page checked on November 5, 2026. The vendor explains resets, message counting, note exports, encryption and Extra Usage directly in its pricing FAQ. We have not purchased a subscription or independently audited usage counters. All price examples are arithmetic based on the published grid rather than a quote for a particular account.

Because the public pricing display does not show a reliable annual schedule for these new plans, annual-discount claims have been omitted. Older single-Pro plan summaries should not override the current grid. Before buying, verify the applicable billing currency, taxes, account cohort, app-store conditions and renewal policy. This article uses published documentation and makes no claim of hands-on measurement.
