Pricing
Email MCP pricing on one page. Free on any mailbox, for as long as you like. Pro is £2.92 a month per mailbox, paid annually at £34.99 + VAT. Team Access, for people who each need their own connection to a mailbox you own, is bought once for the account. Those are the same figures on every page of this site and the same figures in the control panel.
Which page is yours
There are 2 things to buy and they are bought differently. Pro is bought per mailbox. Team Access is bought once, for the account. Most people need only the first.
For one person
£2.92 a month Pro, per mailbox, paid annually at £34.99 + VAT. Free on any mailbox.
For teams
£10.00 a month Team 3, per account, paid annually at £119.99 + VAT. The 2 larger tiers are on the page.
New: routines
A routine is a scheduled task in your own Claude or ChatGPT that works your mailbox at the time you chose: a morning brief, replies drafted, the emails nobody answered. There is nothing extra to buy. Each run spends calls from the mailbox's daily allowance, like anything else you ask, and its card on the Routines tab says how many.
A free mailbox, one day One Morning brief run
Up to 5 of 5
A Pro mailbox, one day One Morning brief run
Up to 5 of 1,000
A Pro mailbox: a week of every routine All 5 for a week, against a week's 7,000
Up to 172 of 7,000
A Morning brief makes at most 5 calls a run, and a free mailbox has 5 a day. It works, and it is the way to try one before you pay for Pro.
Every routine on its starting schedule, all week, comes to at most 172 calls, out of the 7,000 a Pro mailbox has in a week, for £2.92 a month, paid annually at £34.99 + VAT.
Scheduled tasks are your AI app's own. In Claude they need a paid Claude plan; on ChatGPT's free plan a task runs once a day, within a time window such as morning, rather than at an exact time.
Row by row
What each plan includes, in the same words the control panel uses. Free and Pro are bought per mailbox; Team Access is bought once, for the account, on top of them.
| Plan | Free | Pro | Team Access |
|---|---|---|---|
| Price | £0, no card | £2.92 a month per mailbox, paid annually at £34.99 + VAT | Team 3 £119.99 + VAT a year; Team 5 £199.99 + VAT a year; Team 10 £399.99 + VAT a year, per account |
| Bought per | Mailbox | Mailbox | Account, once, on top of Pro per mailbox |
| MCP calls a day | 5 per mailbox, in any rolling 24 hours | Up to 1,000 per mailbox, in any rolling 24 hours | 1,000 for the owner plus 1,000 for each person entitled on it. A shared mailbox has to be on Pro; one whose Pro lapses drops to 5 between everybody on it |
| Mail, calendar and address book tools | Every tool | Every tool | Every tool, plus the 6 claim and approval tools on every mailbox of the account |
| Email routines | Every routine. A Morning brief run, at most 5 calls, fits the 5 a day | Every routine. All 5 on their starting schedules come to at most 172 calls a week | On a shared mailbox too: its owner adds them, they run in the owner's own AI, and their calls come from the mailbox's allowance |
| People with their own connection | No: one person | No: one person | Yes: 3, 5 or 10, each with their own connector URL |
| Permission level per connection | Yes, on every connection made by signing in | Yes, on every connection made by signing in | Yes, and a level per person, chosen by the owner |
| Daily cap per person | No: the mailbox has one daily allowance | No: the mailbox has one daily allowance | Yes, set by the owner per person, and changed without reconnecting |
| Activity record names who called | One person, so no | One person, so no | Yes: every call carries the person who made it |
| Owner alerts | The new-device and calendar alerts | The new-device and calendar alerts | Those, plus a Monday digest per person and an email the first time a shared person writes to a domain the account has not written to since Team Access began |
| Renewal | None: it does not expire | Annual, cancel any time, runs to the end of the paid year | Annual, cancel any time; upgrade or downgrade immediately, within the same year |
Metering
One MCP call is one use of one tool. So asking Claude to find a thread and reply to it isn't one call. It's a search, a read and a send. That's worth knowing before you judge whether 5 a day is enough for you.
A calendar call is counted exactly like a mail call, out of the same allowance. There's no separate calendar quota to buy, and no calendar call that's free. Checking when 4 people are free, booking the meeting and sending the invitations is 3 calls, just as finding a thread and replying to it is 3.
The allowance belongs to the mailbox. It's counted over a rolling 24 hours, not emptied at midnight. On a shared mailbox, every person's calls come out of that one allowance. That's why it grows with the people on it, and why the owner can cap any one person lower than the whole.
For a worked example on a real backlog, the triage method counts what a full inbox pass actually costs. It's the honest way to judge whether the free tier is enough for you.
One limit, one number, one unit
5 calls per mailbox per day on free, up to 1,000 on Pro. The control panel shows the same figures in the same unit. If you ever see this site and the panel disagree about a number, that is a bug and we would like to hear about it at support@mailbox-mcp.com.
Your rights
Stop the renewal at any time, from the control panel, on any mailbox or on a Team tier. What you've paid for runs to its end, and nothing is deleted in either case.
Pro carries on to the end of the period you've paid for. Then that mailbox is on the free tier, and it stays connected.
Then the people on it are parked: every call of theirs is refused until a tier is bought again.
Their levels, caps and connector URLs are kept. So buying a tier again restores them, without re-inviting anyone.
If you're a consumer in the UK buying online, that's your statutory right. Our refunds and cancellation policy sets out the full terms, including how the right works once you've started using the service, and what a refund of a Team tier does to the people on it.
Questions
If you're the only person whose AI uses the mailboxes, however many there are, personal or business, the page for one person is yours. Every mailbox is free with 5 calls a day, and Pro is bought per mailbox. If a colleague or an assistant needs their own connection to a mailbox you own, with their own permission level and daily cap, that's Team Access. It's bought once for the account, on top of Pro, in 3 tiers.
By card, through Stripe, as one annual payment for each thing you buy: a year of Pro on a mailbox, or a year of a Team tier on the account. Card details are entered on Stripe and are never held by us. There is no monthly payment option; the monthly figures on this site are the annual charge divided by 12, rounded up to the penny, and the annual charge is what is taken.
No. Every price on this site is net, and each one is shown with "+ VAT" beside it. VAT is added at the checkout at the rate that applies to you, which is 20% for United Kingdom customers, and the total is shown before you confirm.
Neither. They're metered exactly like the mail tools, from the same daily allowance on the same mailbox, and there's nothing extra to buy. Checking when 4 people are free, booking the meeting and sending the invitations is 3 calls, just as finding a thread and replying to it is 3. A mailbox gets the calendar tools once a calendar is connected to it, whatever its plan, so they're on the free tier as well as on Pro.
Neither. Routines are on every plan, free included, and each step a run takes is one call from that mailbox's daily allowance. A Morning brief makes at most 5 calls a run: the free plan's 5 a day are enough to try one, and Pro's 1,000 are plenty for one every morning. Your AI app keeps the schedule. Claude needs a paid plan for that, and ChatGPT's free plan runs a task once a day, within a time window.
No. Every Pro mailbox costs the same, the 3 Team tiers are priced as stated and nothing else, and there is no minimum, no setup fee and no per-head rate to negotiate. We would rather publish one price list that is true for everybody than a headline figure with "from" in front of it. If your organisation needs something outside the list, email support@mailbox-mcp.com and ask; the answer is written down rather than quoted.
Yes. Our refunds and cancellation policy sets out the full terms, including your statutory right to cancel within 14 days as a UK consumer buying online, what happens to a Pro mailbox when its renewal is stopped, and what a refund of a Team tier does to the people on it.
No card, no trial clock, and every tool available from the first minute.
