Coveo pricing: Coveo cost, Coveo search pricing and every plan price Coveo has published

Coveo quotes every deal in 2026, so the only exact answer is a quote. The last public prices were $600 a month for Base and $1,320 a month for Pro, paid annually in advance on a 3-year term, which is $7,200 and $15,840 a year. Enterprise was always volume-based and never had a list price.

Those figures are a floor, not a forecast. Base was designed for "a single site, product catalog, or intranet" with 100,000 queries a month and two cloud connectors. Most companies pricing Coveo for employee search today want more sources than that, and they will be quoted on the Workplace line, which Coveo now sells by the seat. Budget the old Pro figure as the smallest serious contract and expect the quote to be higher once connectors, index size and generative answering are added.

In two steps. Pro's $1,320 figure was on the page on October 5, 2024 and gone by December 19, 2024. Base kept its $600 figure until at least May 26, 2025, and the August 4, 2025 capture shows no dollar amount on any plan.

By September 2026 the plan grid itself is gone. The live page describes one platform, "entitlement-based pricing" for Service and Websites, "seat-based plans" for Workplace, and a separate Commerce package. Any article that still lists Base, Pro and Enterprise with prices is quoting a page that has not existed for more than a year.

Coveo sells units of query capacity for customer-facing search and seats for employee search. Its pricing page says "each pricing unit includes 100k queries per month", and its FAQ says price scales mainly with queries and indexed items, on annual or three-year subscriptions.

The AWS Marketplace listing confirms the mechanics: two dimensions, Enterprise and Pro, each defined as "100K Query per month (QPM)", sold on a 36-month contract, with the dollar amount set privately. To grow, you add units. Coveo's older FAQ said it would not cut you off when you exceed your queries or indexed items and would instead review usage with your customer manager, which in practice means the overage conversation happens at renewal.

Coveo counts a query as any Search API request that retrieves results: submitting a search, applying a filter, choosing a facet, sorting, or moving to another results page. Query suggestions do not count, and search-as-you-type is available but can multiply your query volume.

This matters more than it looks. A user who searches once, clicks two facets and sorts the results has used four queries. If your intranet serves 1,000 employees who each run ten searches a day with a couple of refinements, you can pass 100,000 queries in a single week. Ask Coveo to model your real traffic, with facets and paging included, before you accept a unit count.

Only for employee search. Coveo's pricing page says it offers "seat-based plans for Workplace", while Service, Websites and Commerce are priced in units of queries. It does not publish the seat price.

The seat also shapes your index. Coveo's entitlements documentation allocates Coveo for Intranet 2,500 indexed items per user on Enterprise (up to 60 million), against a fixed 500,000 items on Pro, and an item includes an email. So below 200 users, the Pro allocation is actually larger than Enterprise's, and a mailbox-heavy company can hit the ceiling long before its headcount does.

Yes. Coveo's free trial page offers "full access for 14 days" with "no credit card required", launched from a desktop device. The old Base plan carried a "Try for free" button until mid-2025.

Fourteen days is enough to index a test source and check relevance, but not enough to measure query volume against a unit count or to test the connectors you would actually buy. Coveo's Pro entitlement lets you "Pick 3" cloud connectors, and its documentation states that the SAP, Salesforce, ServiceNow and Shopify native connectors "are excluded and must be purchased separately". Confirm which connectors your contract includes before the trial ends.

No. Coveo's own FAQ says generative features such as Relevance Generative Answering "are available as add-ons", and its pricing page meters them separately as Generative Queries per Month, on top of your base query units.

That is a meaningful difference from tools that include AI answers in the seat. If the reason you are buying is to let staff ask questions and get cited answers, cost the generative units as a line of their own. The Passage Retrieval API, which feeds Coveo content into your own AI agents, is a third meter, counted in Passage Queries per Month.

At the last list prices, Base cost $21,600 over three years and Pro $47,520, paid a year at a time in advance. Coveo's pricing FAQ stated that all prices were "on a 3-year contract term", and its AWS listing is a 36-month contract.

Read the last two rows honestly. At 100 users, InSearch costs more per year than Coveo Pro's old list price, because Coveo priced capacity rather than people. What changes the comparison is everything around the figure: three connectors on Pro, the excluded SAP, Salesforce, ServiceNow and Shopify connectors, generative answers as an add-on, and three years paid in advance.

Coveo is worth it when search is part of your product or your support operation: customer-facing site search, a self-service portal, case deflection, commerce. It has been doing that since 2005, it is a Leader in the 2026 Gartner Magic Quadrant for search, and it offers document-level security on both Pro and Enterprise.

It is a heavier purchase for a company that only wants employees to find things across Drive, Slack, Notion, Jira and SharePoint. That buyer faces a quote, a three-year term and several meters for a job that does not need them. InSearch is built for that narrower job: one search box across your work apps, cited answers, each app's permissions checked on every query, and a price on the page. Teams start at three seats, and you can connect your first source today.
