What Pickaxe does
Lets you build no-code AI agents trained on your documents, then host, brand and sell them to others through Studios with Stripe billing.
Pickaxe is a no-code platform for building, deploying and monetizing custom AI tools. You design an agent in a visual editor, then train it on documents, websites and even videos through a knowledge base. Agents can be grouped into a Studio, a standalone web app where you host and sell them, choose between Public and Invite-Only access, use a custom domain and collect subscription payments through Stripe.
Agents can also be embedded on sites built with Wix, Squarespace, Webflow, Notion, Kajabi or Wordpress. Actions connect agents to outside software, and the vendor says it has pre-built Actions for popular tools. White-labeling is listed on Gold, and Pro adds Slack and WhatsApp deployments. The Agent and Workspace API is handled differently by plan: Gold pays 1¢ per request, while Pro includes it.
The pricing page shows three paid plans. Gold costs $37 per month billed monthly or $29 per month billed yearly. Pro costs $147 per month billed monthly or $116 per month billed yearly. Business starts at $597 per month with a minimum 6-month commitment; the page shows only this one price and does not say whether it applies to monthly or yearly billing. Usage is paid from credits, where one credit equals $1 of usage cost. Gold includes $15 per month in free credits and Pro includes $50 per month, and activity by your end users counts against those credits. Gold allows up to 3 Workspaces, while Pro lists unlimited Workspaces. No free plan is shown on the pricing page.

Our take
Pickaxe fits people who want to package their know-how as branded, paid AI tools without writing code. The Studio model, custom domains and Stripe billing cover the selling side. The trade-offs are cost and metering: every plan on the pricing page is paid, your end users consume your credits, and Gold is capped at 3 Workspaces and up to 1 collaborator per Workspace. API calls on Gold cost 1¢ per request, whereas Pro includes API access. Teams that need Slack or WhatsApp deployments have to look at Pro, and Business carries a 6-month commitment with no stated billing period. Check the credit model against your expected usage before committing.
