Joplin Pricing, Plans & Alternatives (2026)

Overview

Joplin is an open-source note-taking application that stores notes in Markdown and organises them in notebooks. The project funds development through Joplin Cloud subscriptions, and its plans page refers to the open-source applications that those subscriptions support^[18]. Users can sync through Joplin Cloud or another sync target of their choosing, which is the main reason it appeals to people who want an Evernote-style notebook structure without a single vendor holding the data.

Joplin Cloud is priced in euros. Basic costs €2.99 a month (€2.40 a month on yearly billing) with 2 GB of storage and a 10 MB attachment limit; Pro costs €5.99 a month with 30 GB and 200 MB attachments; Pro 100 GB costs €9.99; Teams costs €7.99 per user per month with a two-user minimum^[18]. Pro adds notebook sharing, email-to-note and a customisable publishing banner, and all cloud plans include publishing notes to the web and sync across unlimited devices. A self-hosted Joplin Server Business licence is priced from €40 per user per year^[18]. Paid plans have a 14-day trial.

Joplin’s limitations are an interface that is more utilitarian than Bear or Craft, and cloud prices quoted only in euros. Its AI features are marked as beta on the plans page^[18].
