Editorial take
Why it stands out
monday.com should be framed as a configurable AI work platform, not just as a colorful task board tool.

Tool profile
AI work platform for projects, workflows, CRM, service, and team execution, with broad modular products built on the monday.com Work OS.
Work management
monday.com belongs in the database because it has become one of the clearest examples of a broad, modular work platform rather than a single narrow SaaS product. The checked official homepage now explicitly positions monday.com as an AI work platform, while the checked pricing page shows that it still sells through concrete product and plan structure rather than only vague AI branding. That combination makes it highly relevant for serious buyers comparing modern work systems.
It also deserves inclusion because the public pricing is strong. For monday work management, the checked official pricing page currently shows Free at $0 for up to 2 seats, Basic at $9 per seat per month billed annually, Standard at $12 per seat per month billed annually, Pro at $19 per seat per month billed annually, and Enterprise as custom pricing. The checked FAQs also note a 14-day Pro trial and an 18% yearly discount. That level of clarity makes monday.com much easier to evaluate than many adjacent enterprise work platforms.
