Plans
In their own words
Hive
Hive brings projects, tasks, approvals, billing, and related team work into one platform. Teams can plan with project views, dashboards, goals, live reporting, templates, custom fields, and portfolios, then collaborate through Notes, action cards with comments and attachments, and forms for internal or external teammates. Its listed AI tools draft email replies, convert meeting transcripts into action items, build projects, proof content, and create dashboard widgets. Hive lists more than 1,000 integrations, including Google Drive, Zoom, Microsoft Teams, Jira, Slack, and QuickBooks. The Free plan is described for light project management and includes unlimited tasks and collaborative Notes, 200MB of storage, and up to 10 workspace members. Starter is an entry-level plan with up to 10 members and 10 projects. Free is free forever; Starter costs $5.00 per user per month and Teams costs $12.00 per user per month. Hive says workspace content stays private to the organization and describes network security controls and hourly backups. It requires an internet connection, so offline access is unavailable.
Optimizilla
Optimizilla is a web image-compression tool for JPEG, PNG, WebP, GIF, and SVG files. It processes images in the browser, supports batch work, and lets users adjust quality and preview the result before saving. The compressor uses format-specific handling: JPEG quality is inferred from quantization tables with a default target of 80; PNG files become PNG8 with up to 256 colors while preserving transparency; and animated GIF optimization reduces the palette while retaining frames. Compressed images have EXIF, GPS, and camera metadata removed. The site says files are not uploaded to its servers. Its free plan is free, with no registration, daily limit, or watermark, and is described as allowing unlimited compression. The pricing page also lists a 25 MB maximum file size and batches of up to 50 files for Free. Pro costs $9 a month and includes unlimited file size and batch uploads, among other tools. Enterprise pricing is custom and not listed; its plan includes custom integrations, without naming partners.
