How much do AI subscriptions cost per month?

The common subscriptions stack up fast: ChatGPT Plus $20, Claude Pro $20, Google AI Pro $19.99, Midjourney Standard $30, Perplexity Pro $20, GitHub Copilot Pro $10 — a typical five-service stack is $99.99/month or $1,199.88/year. Most people underestimate because each charge is small and lands on different days. The calculator below prices your actual selection, switches tiers (Pro 200 vs Plus changes everything), and converts monthly into yearly so the 'am I really using this?' conversation has numbers.

Common uses

  • Totaling every AI subscription into one honest monthly number
  • Seeing the yearly cost that a $20 here, $30 there stacks into
  • Deciding which tier to downgrade before renewal day
  • Splitting personal vs work AI spend for expensing

The renewal-day audit that saves real money

Every subscription charges on its own day, which is exactly why the total stays invisible. Once a quarter: total your stack (this calculator), open your bank statement, and match them. Kill anything you didn't open in 30 days — the Midjourney Standard you forgot is $360/year. Downgrade (don't cancel) when you still use it monthly: ChatGPT Plus→Go saves $144/year with the same core model access.
