Relay shifts to usage-based messaging, upgrades AI to Opus 4.8
What happened
Between the May 25, 2026 and Jun 1, 2026 captures of Relay's pricing page, Pulse recorded 2 changes: AI builder credits model updated from Opus 4.7 to Opus 4.8 in the feature comparison table, applying to Professional and Team plans; Pricing page tagline changed from 'All features included in all plans.' to 'Upgrade when you need more usage or collaboration.' — shifting from flat-feature messaging to usage/collaboration upsell. Pulse files it as a product change (feature change, positioning) with a neutral direction. Pulse's latest capture (Jun 20, 2026) lists Professional at $19 and Team at $59.
It lands 6 days after Relay's previous change, "Relay adds AI builder credits and workflow limits to pricing tiers" (May 27, 2026). Before that Pulse recorded "Relay slashes free AI credits 60% and hikes add-on bundle prices" (Apr 3, 2026) and "Relay cuts free AI credits by 60% across Professional and Team plans" (Mar 17, 2026). Relay has been tracked since 2024-11-16.
In the same window Zoom, Google, Ringcentral, Twilio and Microsoft also changed their Finance & Accounting pricing pages. Those moves are listed further down, and the Pulse Agent can compare them side by side.
