What’s the difference between a free and paid account?
An Optimal Workshop account on the free plan lets you explore all 5 Optimal Workshop tools: Treejack, Chalkmark, Reframer, Questions and OptimalSort. You can sign up for a free Optimal Workshop account on our registration page.
We have designed the free plan so that you can evaluate all of the functions of the Optimal Workshop tools.
We have 3 paid plan options – Starter, Pro and Team.
The Starter plan is well-suited to running smaller studies with fewer tasks and a smaller sample size.
The Pro and Team plans give you access to all functionality within the platform. While the Pro plan is for individual users, the Team plan gives you the ability to collaborate with your colleagues on studies, in addition to increased security functionality.
We have designed the free account so that you can evaluate all of the functions of the Optimal Workshop applications. The free account is best-suited to running studies with minimal tasks and a small sample size.
You can compare the feature differences on each plan in our Help Centre.
Do you have a non-profit profile?
We offer a 50% discount on annual suite subscriptions to non-governmental organizations (NGOs) and education providers (EDUs). If you think you qualify, send an email to support@optimalworkshop.com.

How do I convince my boss?
We created a powerful free plan for just this reason. You can run small (but big enough to be useful) usability studies and try our world-leading analysis features on real projects. Bring your boss along on this small research study or easily share the results to show ROI.
You can also download a one page PDF summary of our tools and plans here.

Optimal Workshop makes it so easy to do user research, there’s no excuse to make uninformed design decisions.
I can test wireframes without being physically present in a room with participants. It expands my testing and actually gives me more accurate results, while I continue to do my other work!
