Pyrus report card
Good · out of 4.0 · graded Nov 12, 2026
Best for approvals and routine requests built as forms
Pyrus builds workflows out of forms and approvals, and the free plan gives unlimited users and tasks with 1 GB. Form tasks are capped at 50 on free, Form Pro is $12 a user billed annually, and extra storage is $80 a month per 100 GB. You build most of what you use yourself.
Who Pyrus is for
- Fits if requests like purchases or leave go through a fixed approval route
- Works for a team that wants unlimited free users for plain tasks
Who Pyrus is not for
- Tight if you are staying free: 1 GB and 50 form tasks
- Pricey if you need storage: $80 a month for each extra 100 GB
- Watch out: the $12 price needs annual prepayment, and quarterly is $15
- Watch out: the OCR invoice reader and ERP integration are add-ons priced by project
Why Pyrus gets a 2.6
Five grades, each with its reason. The GPA is their average: an A is 4 points, an F is none.
- CValue for moneyForm Pro is $12 a user a month billed annually, which is inside the middle of project tools. Extra storage is $80 a month per 100 GB, and the OCR invoice reader is priced per project.
- BFree plan and trialFree forever with unlimited users and tasks and 1 GB. The form and workflow builder stops at 50 form tasks.
- CFeaturesForms, approvals, a service desk and accounts payable flows. The 50 form-task cap on free and the add-on OCR and ERP services are the gaps.

Keep Pyrus, or make your own?
Keep it
To replace Pyrus you would be making connections to other products, each kept working as those products change. That is not a weekend's work, with an AI app builder or without one.
It costs $144 a year.
What you could make
- Tasks, forms and help desk: an app builder makes these well.
What you could not
- Connections to other products, each kept working as those products change.
- Apps for macOS, iOS and Android that stay in step with each other.
- It is priced for each person, which means accounts and billing for a team.
What this rests on. Pyrus’s listing: what it does, where it runs, what it plugs into and what it costs. It is a judgement about the kind of software this is. We have not built a replacement for it, and making your own means looking after it too. How we decide, and every tool’s verdict.
