Nolt has one of the cleanest pricing pages in this category. Flat rate, three plans, and a line at the top saying every plan includes unlimited users, unlimited content and unlimited admins.
There are two things on it worth a second look, and one of them changes the price by about a third.
Everything below was read on Nolt's own pricing pages on 9 September 2026, with both toggles moved rather than left where they loaded.
What does Nolt cost?
Flat, per board tier, in two currencies.
| Plan | Paid yearly | Paid monthly | Boards |
|---|---|---|---|
| Essential | $29/mo, or $348/yr | $39/mo | 1 |
| Pro | $69/mo, or $828/yr | $89/mo | 5 |
| Enterprise | Custom | Custom | Unlimited |
No per user rate appears anywhere on that page, and no per voter rate either. The only thing that steps your bill is how many boards you need.
If that arithmetic came out badly, a trial here is 14 days with a card at signup and the bill after it is $9 or $39 a month whatever the vote count does.
Does Nolt have a free plan?
No. Their pricing page read on 14 September 2026 gives every new board a ten day trial of Pro that asks for no card, and there is nothing free after it.
Why are there two price lists?
Because there are two Nolts, and the toggle at the top of the page is a door to the other one.
Above the plans there is a control marked Europe and Global. Clicking Europe does not reprice the page you are on. It takes you to a different domain, where the product is described as air gapped with data isolated and hosted in the European Union, and the prices are in euros.
| Plan, on the European product | Paid yearly | Paid monthly |
|---|---|---|
| Essential | €39/mo, or €468/yr | €49/mo |
| Pro | €79/mo, or €948/yr | €99/mo |
So the European product costs ten more a month on both plans, and the figure is in a different currency, which means the real gap depends on the exchange rate on the day you pay.
That is a fair thing to charge for. Isolated hosting in a named jurisdiction costs a vendor money and it is exactly what a lot of European buyers are told to require.
It is worth knowing before you compare Nolt to anything, because a price you found in a search result may be the other Nolt.
14 days, a card at signup, then $9 or $39 a month.
What does the board count actually limit?
Separate boards, not separate anything else.
Essential gives you one board and Pro gives you five. If you run one product, one board is the whole product and Essential is the plan. If you run several products and want each to have its own place for requests, that is what steps you to Pro.
Pro also carries things that are not about the count, which are password protected boards, restricting access by email domain, advanced moderation and profanity filtering, data export APIs, and the integrations with Zapier, Make, Pabbly, Intercom, Microsoft Teams, Jira, Linear, monday.com and Asana.
Essential is not thin. It carries private boards, single sign on through a signed token, custom fields, custom statuses, a roadmap, the Slack and Discord integrations and the GitHub and Trello ones.
Worth saying plainly, because it is a genuine difference between their product and ours. Nolt has private boards on its entry plan and password protected boards above it, and we do not have either.
We have no password, no invite list and no per person access control. What we can do on the higher plan is keep a second board unpublished, and that is not the same thing.
Their trial is ten days of the Pro plan on a new board, and their page says a card is not asked for.
Who does Nolt never charge for?
Anybody who uses the board.
The line at the top of their pricing page is unlimited users, unlimited content and unlimited admins, on all plans, and nothing further down contradicts it. Your voters do not appear on the bill and neither do your colleagues.
That is the same bet we make and it is the right one, and it is worth pointing out because it is not the norm.
Two tools in this category charge you by how many people participate, which means the better your board does the more it costs, and the whole comparison turns on that one design choice rather than on any headline number.
What do two products cost a year?
$828, against $348 for one, so the second board is $480 a year and the third is free.
Essential is $29 a month or $348 billed annually and carries one board. A second product needs a second board, and the next plan up is Pro at $69 a month or $828 annually. That is the whole increase, because Pro carries five boards, so the third, fourth and fifth cost nothing on top.
The arithmetic worth noticing is that the second board costs more than the first one did. A product that starts at $348 a year is $828 the moment you launch anything else.
What does this cost on VoteFirst?
Nine dollars a month, and thirty nine if you want colleagues.
The nine dollar plan is one project and one person, which lines up against Essential at twenty nine. It carries the public board, the roadmap page, the changelog, the widgets and weighted voting.
Thirty nine adds more projects, the API, a custom domain and team members, and it does not count the team.
The honest comparison is that we are cheaper and they have things we do not, including the private and password protected boards and a longer integration list. The alternative page goes through it properly.
Neither of us meters the people who vote. Both of our figures are published and a card is required for the fourteen day trial.
