Built on the same engine as the full AI second brain app.

Short answer: mymind costs $7.99 a month or $79 a year on Student of Life, and $12.99 a month or $129 a year on Mastermind, which adds video uploads up to 500MB. The Bookmarker plan is $4.99 a month and drops the AI features. mymind stores and finds what you save, but it does not answer questions from your own documents.

Consultant reviewing a shelf of saved reference material before choosing a tool

mymind pricing is easy to read and easy to misjudge. The yearly figures are small, so the plan feels like a rounding error. The better question is whether you are paying for the right job. mymind is a visual memory for things you collect: images, bookmarks, quotes, notes. If your real need is asking questions across your own reports, contracts and notes, you may be paying for a tool that was built for a different task. This page lays out each plan, the cost over three years, and where a different kind of tool fits.

mymind pricing by plan

PlanMonthlyYearlyWhat stands out
The Bookmarker$4.99Not listedNo card limit, no AI features
Student of Life$7.99$79Unlimited cards with AI features
Mastermind$12.99$129Everything above plus video uploads up to 500MB each

These are the figures on mymind's own pricing page. The yearly plans show a struck-through total next to the sale price, and the page advertises a saving of about 20 percent against paying monthly. Working it out, $79 against twelve months of $7.99 saves roughly 18 percent, and $129 against twelve months of $12.99 saves about 17 percent. A fourth tier called Newton, at $299 a year, appears on the page but is marked as not available yet, so do not budget around it.

I did not find a free plan or a trial period stated on the page. Some review sites list an older free tier limited to a small number of cards. Treat those as out of date and check the pricing page before you sign up.

What mymind costs over three years

PlanOne yearThree years
The Bookmarker (monthly)$59.88$179.64
Student of Life (yearly)$79$237
Student of Life (monthly)$95.88$287.64
Mastermind (yearly)$129$387
Mastermind (monthly)$155.88$467.64

Billing yearly is the obvious saving, about $17 a year on Student of Life and $27 on Mastermind. Mastermind only pays off if you upload video. If your collection is images, links and text, Student of Life covers it.

Which mymind plan to buy

  • The Bookmarker if you want a clean place to keep links and do not need search by meaning or automatic tagging.
  • Student of Life if you collect images, articles and notes and want the AI to find them for you. This is the plan most people mean when they say mymind.
  • Mastermind if you save screen recordings or video references and need the larger upload size.

What mymind does not do

mymind finds what you saved. It does not read a 200-page report you uploaded and answer a client's question from page 143. It is not built to take your contracts, proposals and meeting notes and reply in your own wording. That is the gap people hit when they outgrow a collection tool and start looking for something that works on documents.

If the work you bill for is written down in files, a document-grounded tool is the better buy. MentalClone as a mymind alternative reads your uploaded files and answers from them with sources, so you can ask a question and get the paragraph that backs it. Starter is $288 a year with unlimited documents and messages, which is more than mymind's yearly plans and a different category of product. The comparison is fair only if you know which job you are hiring for.

People who save a lot of web pages in mymind sometimes want those pages as clean text for their own analysis. A web scraping API that turns any website into clean data for language models handles that step, and the output can be uploaded as documents to a tool that answers from them.

Costs the mymind price does not show

The subscription is the whole bill for mymind itself, which is a point in its favor. There are no per-seat add-ons on the personal plans and no usage meter. The cost that is easy to miss is switching. Once a few thousand cards live in one tool, moving them costs an afternoon, and you will only do it if the new tool earns it. That is why it pays to decide the job first. If the pile you need to question is client work, a transcript archive or years of your own writing, add the time you spend rereading it by hand. An hour a week at a consulting rate costs far more per year than any plan on this page.

The opposite mistake also happens. People buy a document assistant when all they wanted was a tidy place for inspiration images. Match the tool to the job and the price difference stops mattering.

mymind pricing questions

How much is mymind per month?

mymind costs $7.99 a month on Student of Life and $12.99 a month on Mastermind. The Bookmarker is $4.99 a month without AI features. Yearly billing brings Student of Life to $79 and Mastermind to $129 a year.

Is mymind free?

The pricing page lists no free plan and states no trial. Third-party sites mention an older free tier with a card limit, but it is not on the current page. Check mymind's own pricing page for what is offered when you sign up.

What is the difference between Student of Life and Mastermind?

Both give unlimited cards with AI features. Mastermind costs $12.99 a month or $129 a year and adds video uploads up to 500MB each. If you do not save video, Student of Life at $79 a year does the same work.

Does mymind have a student discount?

The plan name suggests it, but the pricing page does not state a student discount. The $79 yearly price is a general rate. Ask mymind support directly before assuming a reduced price applies to you.

Can mymind answer questions about my documents?

Not in the way a document assistant does. mymind searches and organizes what you save. For answers drawn from your own reports and contracts with sources, you need a tool that reads the files, such as MentalClone.
