Affinity
Affinity · CRM & Sales
Relationship intelligence platform (CRM) built for VC, private equity, and investment banking. Positioned as the alternative to Salesforce and Attio for teams whose deals depend on personal networks. Distinctive for auto-mining team members' email + calendar to build the relationship graph — you don't manually log activities. Pricing opaque and enterprise-tier ($4K-$10K+/user/year typical). Popular with VCs, PE firms, and investment banks.
In other words, Affinity (Publisher/Photo/Designer) is worth it for professional designers who resent Adobe's subscription model and want perpetual-license alternatives to Photoshop, Illustrator, and InDesign. One-time purchase covers all three apps for life; universal license works on Mac + Windows + iPad. Learning curve is moderate for Photoshop refugees; a few workflow habits transfer. Limited native integrations (no Slack/Figma-style connectors); imports and exports handle the interoperability. Downside: smaller plugin ecosystem than Adobe, no cloud collaboration, and updates are slower.
Pricing summary
Annual Only
Main metered limit
Priced per user/year, billed annually: Essential $2,000, Scale $2,300, Advanced $2,700. Enterprise is custom. Purpose-built for VC, PE, and investment firms; no free plan. ENRICHED 2026-08-29 (daily refresh): No price movement — Essential re-confirmed at $2,000/user/yr = $166.67/mo (vendr.com, coffee.ai, trustradius). Entry price unchanged. Structural enrichment only: the Scale tier ($2,300/user/yr = $191.67/mo) was missing from Pricing Tiers entirely, and Advanced was stored as 'custom / quote-only' when sources now consistently publish a firm $2,700/user/yr ($225/mo). Both are now tracked with real numbers. Number of Plans 3 -> 4. Baseline snapshots written for Scale and Advanced with Direction = Stable and empty Change Rationale, because no prior snapshot exists for either (tool, tier) pair — these are first-ever baselines, not increases. All tiers are annual-billed only, so Monthly Price is stored as the per-month equivalent of the annual rate, matching how the Entry fields already treat this record. NOTE: Affinity does not publish self-serve pricing; these are list figures captured by third-party trackers, so treat as reference prices. CHECKED 2026-09-17 (daily refresh): NO MOVEMENT on any tier. Essential $2,000/user/yr ($166.67/mo), Scale $2,300 ($191.67/mo), Advanced $2,700 ($225/mo) and Enterprise custom all re-confirmed (vendr.com, coffee.ai, trustradius). All four tiers remain annual-billed only and all four route through 'Contact sales' rather than a self-serve checkout, which is why these stay reference prices. New detail captured: Scale and Advanced include 100K API calls/month with Enterprise unlimited; Essential contracts for teams of 5-15 users typically land $12,000-$35,000 ACV, Advanced for 15-40 users $40,000-$120,000 ACV — useful for the tool page since the per-seat figure alone understates what a firm actually signs. SELF-CITATION EXCLUDED: saaspricehub.io (our own site) appeared in search results for this tool again and was NOT counted toward the 2-source agreement bar, per the circular-source rule first documented on the Tresorit record. The two figures above rest on vendr/coffee.ai/trustradius only.

Need real-time team collaboration or web/mobile? Pick Figma or Canva. Need Photoshop-specific plugins? Adobe Creative Cloud is unavoidable.
