Lucidspark pricing: plans, cost per user, and what only the Team plan unlocks

Read from lucidspark.com/pricing in US dollars on August 26, 2026: Free is $0 and gives you three editable boards. Individual is $9 per month for a single user with unlimited boards. Team is $10 per user per month, billed monthly or annually. Enterprise is quoted by sales. Every figure is listed excluding VAT.

One note on where those numbers live, because it trips people up. Lucid moved its whiteboard pricing: the old lucid.co/pricing/lucidspark address now returns a 404, and lucid.co/pricing shows the Lucidchart plans instead. The live Lucidspark plan cards are at lucidspark.com/pricing. If you are comparing quotes against a page you bookmarked last year, check which product you are actually looking at, because the two price differently and only Enterprise includes both.

The arithmetic worth doing before the seven day trial ends, at list rates:

• 1 person on Individual: $9 a month, $108 a year, with no voting and no timer.
• 2 people on Team: $20 a month, $240 a year.
• 5 people on Team: $50 a month, $600 a year.
• 10 people on Team: $100 a month, $1,200 a year, and most teams this size negotiate rather than pay list.

The feature that most often forces an upgrade is not board count, it is administration. SSO, SCIM provisioning, domain control and IP allowlisting all live on Enterprise, and there is no published seat threshold that triggers it: a security review does, whatever your headcount. Lucidspark also sits inside the wider Lucid suite, so if you already pay for Lucidchart, the bundle math can change the picture. Budget for where your security requirements land, not just where your team size does.

There is a permanently free plan, and it is more generous than the category norm in one specific way. You get three editable Lucidspark boards, and there is no cap on shapes per board, so a single board can hold a great deal of work. Free also includes freehand drawing, commenting, emoji reactions, Basic Visual Activities, presentation mode, Gather, Sort and Paths, plus Lucid AI, which Lucid currently makes available to all users while noting on its pricing page that AI may move to a paid subscription model in the future.

The limit that actually ends the free experience is not the board count. It is that voting, the timer, facilitator tools, the laser pointer, guest collaborators and revision history all sit on the Team plan, two tiers up. Upgrading to Individual removes the board cap and adds no collaboration features at all, which is a common and expensive mistake. If you are evaluating Lucidspark to run sessions with other people, evaluate it on a Team trial, because the free tier and the Individual plan both understate what you would be buying. We break the whole free tier down on the Lucidspark free plan page.

On the entry tier they are close. Lucidspark Team is about $10 per user per month against Miro Starter at $8 per member, so Miro is slightly cheaper at the door, but Lucidspark does not meter AI in credits the way Miro does, which can flip the total for an AI-heavy team. Lucidspark also gates voting and timers behind Team, so the $9 Individual plan cannot run a session, while Miro puts the timer and voting on its entry paid tier.

The honest tie-breaker is rarely price, it is what you already own. If your company runs on Lucidchart, Lucidspark is the natural board because the two share a canvas and a handoff. If you want the widest general-purpose canvas with the deepest integrations, Miro is the broader platform. We work through the head to head on Lucidspark vs Miro, and the wider ideation question on the Lucidspark alternative page.

Brainstormer is priced for the outcome rather than the canvas: Solo is $16 a month, Pro is $39, and Team is $99 for five seats, with unlimited brainstorms and no board cap to watch. Set that against five Team seats on Lucidspark at about $50 a month and the shapes are different products, not different prices. One sells you a surface to fill; the other does the filling.

Type the challenge and the wall holds two dozen genuinely different directions in about thirty seconds, each tagged with the angle it came from. Run SCAMPER or Six Thinking Hats over the output yourself. The same run also lifts out a shortlist: the three strongest ideas across all six personas, each with its reasoning written down, ready to paste into a doc.

Teams that draw diagrams, map processes and hand ideas off to Lucidchart should keep Lucidspark; it is genuinely good at that. But if the Lucidspark line item exists because someone needs ideas and a decision, the honest comparison is on our Lucidspark alternative page, and the wider field is in our best brainstorming software roundup.
