Daily market commentary · 8 October 2026

AI-agent pricing was broadly steady, with one sharp cut

On 2026-10-08, the market index was 100.52, down 0.02 over 1 day, up 0.04 over 7 days, and up 0.18 over 30 days, based on 10877 like-for-like pairs.

The most notable move was consultant.dev’s consultantpro plan, which fell from €16.66 / month to €4.99 / month, a 70% reduction. The change is much larger than the other listed movements, which included increases at agentisend.com, agentphyll.com, intercom.com, 100hires.com, and greminders.com, alongside a reduction in agentisend.com’s pro plan from $22 to $16 per month. The focus market has 20 vendors and is at density percentile 23. Its price path is clear, but the supplied data does not provide the prices or changes for the 3 market neighbours charted, so a direct comparison with those neighbours is not available. For buyers, this is a substantial change in the advertised monthly entry point, rather than a small adjustment to an existing price.

The 30-day tier picture shows the strongest movement in Individual, up 0.57, followed by Enterprise, up 0.44. Team / SME rose 0.14, while Pro increased 0.07. This indicates that the longer-term movement is uneven across buyer segments, with Individual and Enterprise pricing changing more than Pro. Over 7 days, Enterprise was up 0.08, while Individual and Team / SME were each up 0.05 and Pro was up 0.02. On 1 day, Pro was down 0.07, while Individual, Team / SME, and Enterprise were unchanged at 0.

There were 12 repricings in the supplied set. Agentisend.com showed both lower base pricing and higher overage pricing: its scale plan rose from $59 to $72 per month, while scaleoverage rose from $0.23 per 1,000 extra emails to $0.60 and prooverage rose from $0.45 to $0.72. Starteroverage moved from $0.55 to $0.75 per 1,000 extra emails. Those changes make usage-based costs important to review alongside headline subscription prices. The consultant.dev cut is worth watching because its size stands apart from the broader, modest market movement.
