Nestr's pricing is designed to be accessible to organisations of all sizes, from small teams experimenting with self-organisation to large enterprises.

What counts as a paid user?

Anyone with login access to your workspace counts as a user. This includes:

  • Active members who fill roles and participate in meetings
  • Users who have accepted their invitation

Users who have been invited but haven't yet accepted ("silent" users) or who have been suspended do not count toward your user total.

View-only access

If you want stakeholders to see your organisational structure without participating, you have two options:

  • For people who do not need a Nestr account, the Published Workspace feature makes your circle and role structure publicly viewable at no additional cost. Enable it in Workspace settings → Applications.
  • For members who only need to read, set up a read-only profile through rights management on the Pro plan and assign it to them. The Pro plan also unlocks per-role and per-circle permission scoping.

The free trial

Every new workspace starts with a free trial period. During the trial, you have access to all features. When the trial ends, you can choose a plan that fits your needs or contact us to discuss options.

Nonprofit and social impact pricing

Nestr offers special pricing for nonprofits, NGOs, cooperatives, and social impact organisations. Contact us to learn about discounted plans tailored to purpose-driven organisations. Nestr operates with a pay-what-you-can approach for qualifying organisations. We believe everyone should have access to tools for effective self-organisation, regardless of budget. Reach out to discuss what works for your situation.

Multiple workspaces

Pricing is per workspace, not per user across all workspaces. If you have multiple workspaces, each has its own plan and user count. A person who is a member of multiple workspaces counts as one user in each workspace.

Managing your subscription

  1. Go to Workspace settings → Plan & Billing.
