How much does monday dev cost once your team needs sprints and GitHub sync?

Summary

Standard connects planning to GitHub

A sprint is a short planning period for development work. Story points are estimates of relative effort, not hours on a timesheet. The dev pricing page puts sprint management with story points on Standard, together with a single roadmap and GitHub integration that synchronizes bugs and features in both directions. Official dev plans.

Basic provides development templates, unlimited items and documents, free viewers and a dashboard based on one board. Its general description mentions Scrum processes, but that wording should not be read as including every sprint feature listed under Standard. For sprint planning, look for the story-point feature itself in the plan list.

Pro is for work spanning several teams

Pro adds a hierarchy of epics, tasks and subtasks, cross-team roadmaps, agile reporting, time tracking and private boards. An epic groups related development work above individual tasks. If several teams contribute to one release, that hierarchy and shared roadmap may justify Pro. If one team mainly needs a sprint board linked to GitHub, Standard is the starting point to test.

Standard provides 250 automation actions and 250 integration actions a month; Pro lists 25,000 of each. A run can consume more than one action, so those are not counts of bugs or commits. Standard dashboards combine up to five boards; Pro combines twenty. Estimate the actions your actual sync recipes use before treating Standard as sufficient.

Eight developers, ten paid seats

monday.com sells paid seats in groups: three initially, then multiples of five. Eight editors therefore buy ten seats. The following uses the Japan annual display checked on 10 October 2026, with tax excluded. Prices depend on billing country.

Scroll sideways to see every column.

Pro adds ¥378,000 − ¥195,000 = ¥183,000 a year. These are the displayed seat-plan amounts; separately purchased usage or apps would be additional. The pricing FAQ says an annual subscription is charged in one upfront installment. If you already pay for another development tool, compare what dev replaces with what it adds before taking on that annual payment.

Check the AI feature you plan to use

The dev pricing page lists AI credits and a sprint summary from Basic, while the dedicated “Using AI in monday dev” help page says Pro and Enterprise with AI enabled by an admin. These pages do not establish one common entitlement for every feature. AI help page.

If an AI feature is your reason to buy, verify that exact feature and credit allowance for your account before subscribing. The work management AI pricing model does not apply to dev. Likewise, a product-level integration list does not establish the plan or paid app needed for every connector.

Choose Standard for a single-team sprint workflow and GitHub sync that fits its action allowance. Choose Pro for cross-team planning, reporting or time records you actually need. A team already satisfied with its current sprint and code-hosting tools should identify the missing workflow before adding dev; the extra subscription alone does not remove duplicate entry.
