Mintlify ends free 6-month Pro offer for early-stage startups
What happened
Between the Oct 2, 2026 and Oct 3, 2026 captures of Mintlify's pricing page, Pulse recorded one change: Removed startup program offer: 6 months of Mintlify Pro free for eligible startups (founded <2 years, raised <$2M, never paid). Pulse files it as a pricing change (discount removed) with a neutral direction. Pulse's latest capture (Oct 19, 2026) lists Pro at $450.
It lands 2 days after Mintlify's previous change, "Mintlify offers startups 6 months of Pro free, no card needed" (Oct 1, 2026). Before that Pulse recorded "Mintlify adds Narration row to Publishing table for Pro, Enterprise plans" (Sep 26, 2026), "Mintlify adds WebMCP row to feature comparison, hides it on Starter" (Sep 22, 2026) and "Mintlify Agents table reveals credit costs, Writing agent unlimited" (Sep 14, 2026). Mintlify has been tracked since 2024-10-21.
In the same window Postman, Notion and Slite also changed their Software Development & Testing pricing pages. Those moves are listed further down, and the Pulse Agent can compare them side by side.
