  HoneyBook sells three subscription membership tiers - Starter, Essentials,
  and Premium - billed per company, plus a per-transaction payment processing
  fee on top. There is no API-specific plan or tier: HoneyBook has no public
  developer API, so no plan grants API access. Pricing below is from
  HoneyBook's public pricing page; annual billing is discounted versus
  monthly.
notes: >-
  Feature limits (lead forms, scheduler session types, team seats) are
  reconstructed from HoneyBook's public pricing and help center pages as of
  the review date; verify current figures directly with HoneyBook before
  relying on them, as SaaS pricing pages change frequently.

    Entry tier for a solo service business. Unlimited clients, projects,

    scheduler beyond a single live session type, and HoneyBook's "Powered by
    HoneyBook" branding remains on emails, forms, and the client portal.
