Productboard Spark is included in all Productboard plans. This FAQ explains how credits work and what happens if you need to cancel or request a refund.

Pricing
Full access to current Spark capabilities, including:

Spark is included in all Productboard plans.
The following plans are available (prices shown for annual billing):
Credits are pooled across your entire workspace—they aren't assigned to individual makers. For example, on the Business plan with 3 makers, you get 1,500 credits per month (3 × 500) for your whole team to share.
Credit allowances are designed to support a healthy mix of AI-driven work each month. The higher your plan tier, the more operations you can run. See AI credit information below for typical task costs.
For more on credits, see AI credit information below.
Productboard offers a free trial for 14 days with unlimited credit usage (capped at 1,000 credits per day) on our Business plan.
Once the free trial is finished, you can upgrade or your account will convert into a free account.
Productboard offers a Free plan with ongoing Spark access, no credit card required.
- The Free plan includes 50 AI credits per month, shared across your whole workspace. Credits reset on your monthly billing date.
On the Free plan, once you've used your 50 monthly credits, you'll lose access to AI features until your credits reset at the start of the next month. You'll still have access to your workspace, documents, and notes.
When you upgrade from the Free plan to a paid plan, your new plan's credits become available on your first paid billing date.
If you need more credits before your renewal date, you can purchase credit top-ups. Top-ups are only available on paid plans, trial users must upgrade to a paid plan to purchase additional credits.
Monthly plans
- 50-credit bundles: $5/month per bundle.
- Minimum purchase: 1 bundle (50 credits).
- You select the quantity of bundles you need.
Annual plans
- 600-credit bundles: $60/year per bundle.
- Minimum purchase: 1 bundle (600 credits).
- Credits are distributed monthly in 50-credit increments.
If you purchase credit top-ups mid-period, both the cost and the credits are pro-rated for that initial monthly period. All credits, base and add-on, expire on your monthly subscription renewal date.
Tip: Plan ahead for credit-intensive projects. If you know you'll need extra capacity for a major initiative, purchase top-ups early in your billing cycle.
AI credit information
Credits power all AI interactions in Spark. Any time you use AI in Spark, for example, to generate or edit a document, or to run an analysis, you spend credits.
- Credits are included based on your plan: 50/month on Free, 250/maker/month on Plus, 500/maker/month on Business, and 1,500 base + 800/maker/month on Enterprise. All credits are pooled across the workspace.
On the Free plan, your workspace gets 50 credits per month (for all users).
Once your workspace runs out of credits, you'll still be able to open Spark, see your workspace, documents, and notes, but you won't be able to use the AI features again until credits reset (once per month on paid plans) or you buy more (see Top-ups).
The number of credits a task uses depends on how complex it is. Here are typical ranges:
All credits in your workspace are pooled, they aren't assigned to individual makers. This means any maker in your workspace can use any of the available credits.
For example, if your workspace has 3 makers on a paid plan that grants 250 credits per month, you'll have 750 credits total per month (3 makers × 250 credits) for your team to use collectively.
Tip: Credit pooling makes it easy for your team to collaborate. Makers who focus on research-heavy tasks can use more credits while others use fewer, and it all comes from the same pool.
After you are fully out of credits:
- You will not be able to use the chat agent.
- You will not be able to use any other AI features.
- You keep access to your workspace, documents, and notes.
- Your most recent feedback will stop being processed.
This will persist until your credits reset on your next renewal date or you purchase additional credit top-ups.
You'll see banners inside Spark when your credits are low or depleted, explaining your status and how to buy more. Admins will also receive emails when credits are low or have run out.
If you start a task and your workspace runs out of credits in the middle:
- That task will still finish, even if it takes you slightly over your current credit limit.
- We do not deduct that overage from future months' credits at this time.
For a free trial:
- Credits are reset each day to give a new limit of 1,000 credits.
- All credits expire when the free trial ends.
For paid Spark plans:
- All credits, both the 250 per maker included and any add-on/top-up credits, expire each month on your subscription renewal date.
- On the renewal date, your credit balance is reset for the new month.
For credit top-ups:
- Top-up credits follow the same monthly reset as your base credits.
- They expire on your monthly renewal date, even if you bought them mid-cycle.
If you buy top-ups partway through your billing period:
- Both the price and the number of credits are pro-rated to match the time remaining until your renewal date.
In your Spark workspace, from the Main menu, click Settings Billing to review credit usage charts and remaining balance. This gives you a concrete view of how your typical workflows translate into credits.
Billing
Yes, there is a free plan which includes 50 credits for Spark each month.
Spark is a fundamental part of Productboard and cannot be canceled on its own. If you'd like to cancel your Productboard subscription, please contact support@productboard.com.
If Spark fails and you're charged credits for a task that didn't complete successfully, you can request a credit refund by emailing support@productboard.com.
Existing customers and legacy plans
No. Spark is available in your workspace and your AI credits are applied on September 1, 2026. You don't need to sign a new order form or move to the current pricing version to start using it.
No. September 1 is when credits are applied. Your plan and price stay as they are until your renewal date. The pricing comparison in your notification email shows what your plan and price will be at renewal.
Your allocation depends on the plan you move to at renewal. Your notification email includes a plan comparison along with your credit allocation and price. Credits are pooled across your workspace and reset every month, the same as any other plan.
Open the Main menu and select Settings > Billing. Your allocation, usage, and remaining balance are there once credits are applied on September 1.
Going over your allocation doesn't change your contract on its own. It starts a conversation with your Productboard account owner about moving to the current pricing version ahead of your renewal date, with a larger credit allocation. You won't be invoiced for overage against your existing contract.
If you expect to use more than your allocation, contact your renewal manager or account owner and we'll work out the right plan before you get there.
Pulse capabilities are part of Spark. You don't lose anything, your new price includes them, and the separate Pulse line item goes away at renewal.
The add-on capabilities are part of Spark. You don't lose anything, your new price includes them, and the separate add-on line item goes away at renewal.
Your plan moves to the current pricing version at your next renewal on or after September 1, 2026. The comparison table in your notification email shows how your current plan maps across and what changes.
Email engagement@productboard.com. For questions about your contract, price, or renewal date, contact your renewal manager or account owner directly.
