HubSpot Operations reveals $9/1K credits with interactive cost calculator
What happened
Between the May 4, 2026 and May 11, 2026 captures of HubSpot's pricing page, Pulse recorded 2 changes: HubSpot Credits unit price now explicitly displayed at $9.00 per 1,000 credits; an interactive pricing calculator was added showing per-agent costs (Customer Agent: 50 credits/conversation resolved; Data Agent: 10 credits/smart properties run); HubSpot AEO now allows purchasing additional prompts anytime beyond the base 25 prompts; the trial description ('Trial includes 25 prompts tracked on 3 answer engines') was replaced with 'Purchase additional prompts anytime.'. Pulse files it as a pricing change (price revealed, feature added) with an upward direction. Pulse's latest capture (Aug 10, 2026) lists Starter at $7, Professional at $720, Enterprise at $2,000, Professional Core Seat Add-on at $45 and HubSpot Credits at $9 per 1,000 credits.
It lands 42 days after HubSpot's previous change, "Hubspot Operations refreshes Pro and Enterprise plan taglines" (Apr 1, 2026). Before that Pulse recorded "Hubspot Operations removes Brand Identity feature from Enterprise plan" (Mar 17, 2026), "Hubspot Operations shifts to omni-channel marketing, demand engine focus" (Mar 10, 2026) and "Hubspot Operations drops feature comparison table for plan guidance" (Week 10, 2026). HubSpot has been tracked since 2025-01-01.
In the same window Zoho, Freshworks, Microsoft, ActiveCampaign and Salesforce also changed their CRM pricing pages. Those moves are listed further down, and the Pulse Agent can compare them side by side.
