Zero CRM (zero.inc) pricing, verified
Zero (zero.inc) published its pricing page on September 15, 2026, alongside self-serve signup and a $10.3M seed round. Pro lists at $77 per seat per month on annual billing, discounted to $60 for the first 12 months as a launch price; monthly billing is $96 after three months at $60. Each seat includes 500 credits per month, five times the 100 its llms.txt had stated before launch. Scale is custom with a ten-seat minimum and adds SSO, custom integrations, and a white-glove migration. Per-operation credit costs are now published, which is the part that was missing before.

How Zero meters AI
Zero meters AI in credits. Each seat includes 500 credits a month, and the per-operation costs are now published: a verified email is 1 credit, a phone number 10, and an agent operation 0.1 to 5 depending on complexity. Top-ups sell at $0.06 per credit in 1,000-credit packs or $0.05 in 3,000-credit packs.
That matters more for Zero than for most vendors: an autonomous system spends credits on actions it takes without you. At 10 credits a phone number, a seat doing real prospecting clears 500 credits quickly, so ask what a typical seat consumes in a month and what the overage looks like at scale.
Details worth knowing
What makes the call worth preparing for: Zero's product position is full autonomy - a zero-click CRM with no approval step, by design. Pricing an autonomous system means pricing the actions it takes without you, so the metering question matters more here than anywhere else in the category.
Questions worth asking on the demo: How many credits does a typical active seat burn in a month, and what does a top-up cost? Which operations cost the most? What is the minimum commitment and term? And what controls exist over what the system does autonomously - since with no approval step, the answer shapes both the risk and the bill.
Numbers you may see elsewhere
Several software listing sites showed prices for Zero before Zero said anything. We traced those figures on July 30: none matched what zero.inc now states, so treat third-party Zero prices as template artifacts. The only vendor-stated numbers are the ones in zero.inc/llms.txt, quoted above, until the pricing page arrives.
Zero publishes its own comparison page against Ahoy, updated September 12, 2026. It is fair on the facts we checked and quotes our prices correctly. Read both pages.
How this compares with Ahoy
Zero and Ahoy anchor opposite ends of the autonomy spectrum: Zero removes the human approval step by design, while Ahoy's AI prepares everything and waits for one-tap human approval - with AI included in the seat, unmetered.

Frequently asked questions
How much does Zero CRM cost?
Pro is $77 per seat per month on annual billing, with a launch price of $60 for the first 12 months; monthly billing is $60 for three months and $96 after that. Each seat includes 500 credits. Scale is custom with a ten-seat minimum. Verified on zero.inc/pricing, September 17, 2026.
Does Zero have a free plan or trial?
A 14-day trial with no credit card required, and self-serve signup, both live since September 15, 2026. There is no permanently free plan.
Is Zero's AI credit-metered?
Yes. Each seat includes 500 credits a month. A verified email costs 1 credit, a phone number 10, and an agent operation 0.1 to 5 by complexity. Top-ups are $0.06 per credit in 1,000-credit packs or $0.05 in 3,000-credit packs.
Why do some sites show prices for Zero?
Listing and review platforms render template pricing fields whether or not a vendor publishes numbers. We traced the figures quoted for Zero and they appear nowhere on zero.inc - they are template artifacts, not the vendor's pricing.
What should I ask on a Zero demo call?
The structure (per seat, per workspace, or usage-based), whether AI work is metered and what happens at the limit, the minimum term, and what controls exist over autonomous actions - Zero has no approval step by design, so that answer shapes both risk and cost.
