Lindy Review 2026

Profile

Lindy sells an assistant that works from chat threads, connects to other tools and runs scheduled routines, according to its homepage (R23, R24).

The ranking does not list Lindy. This review uses the vendor’s homepage and pricing page only.

Strengths named in our sources

• The free tier gives $50 of credits with no card required, and the homepage says the teammate connects to more than 1,500 integrations and supports MCP (R21, R24).
• Actions with outside impact, such as sending an email or updating a ticket, wait for approval, and read-only lookups do not (R23).
• The vendor says it does not bill overage when the pool runs low. It pauses credit actions until the next cycle instead (R22).
• The homepage lists SOC 2 Type II, GDPR, HIPAA and PIPEDA compliance statements (R24).

Drawbacks named in our sources

• Anyone who uses Lindy takes a seat, including a teammate who @mentions it in Slack. New Slack teammates get a seven-day trial before their seat is billed (R22).
• Monthly credits do not roll over to the next cycle (R22).
• The credit cost of a task depends on its size. The pricing page gives ranges of 2–250 credits for everyday asks and 1,000–2,500 credits for big builds (R22).

Pricing as the sources list it

• Free: $50 in one-time credits, valid for seven days, with no card required (R21).
• Team: $49.99 per user per month for 5,000 credits, rising in tiers to $299.99 for 45,000 credits (R21).
• Top-up credits: $10 per 1,000, bought by an admin (R21).
• Enterprise: custom credits and billing, with HIPAA and a signed BAA, SSO and SCIM, and audit logs (R24).

What the vendor says

The homepage describes Lindy as a teammate that does real work across the team, and the FAQ says its memory is kept in plain files a user can open and edit (R23). These are vendor claims.

Who it suits

• Small teams that already run most of their work in Slack and want shared routines with approvals.
• Teams with a seat budget that want an assistant more than a workflow engine.
• Less suited to teams that need a fixed price per workflow or fine-grained code-level control.

What we did not test

We did not connect Lindy to any workspace and did not measure the quality of its answers, its speed or its error rate. The example outputs on its homepage are vendor marketing and are not tested here.

Before you buy

Count the seats before you price the plan. Anyone who @mentions Lindy in Slack takes a seat (R22), so the cost of the Team plan depends on who asks for work. Credit cost per task varies from 2 to 250 credits for everyday asks (R22), so run one of your own typical requests on the free credits first.

How to run your own trial

Build a small piece of the work you plan to ship, and note the setup time, the first usable result and any change you did not ask for. Check how usage is billed before you add more work, because the meter is often the part that surprises a team. Where the sources disagree on price, compare what each plan includes on the vendor page rather than the headline figure.
