Go1 pricing: Go1 cost per user and Go1 training pricing by plan

Go1 costs $40, $63 or $91 per user a year on its three small-team plans, Essentials Select 10, 25 and 50. The number in the plan name is how many courses you pick from the Premium Essentials library, and you can swap them as often as you like. Go1 shows these rates for a team of 100 employees and says the per-seat cost falls for larger teams. The two full-catalog plans, Premium Essentials and Premium Pro, are quote only: their cards carry a Speak with an expert button and no figure.

The small-team rates are not in the visible HTML of the page. The price cards render a loading placeholder and fill it in from a price table in the page script, which lists USD 40, 63 and 91 per user per year for the three plans (with separate rates in AUD, CAD, EUR and other currencies). We read that table on 25 September 2026. It is also why most pricing directories still say Go1 publishes nothing.

Each Essentials Select card lists "Up to 100 seats included", and the footnote says prices are "shown for teams of 100 employees" and that a Go1 advisor can share discounted rates above 100 licenses. Go1 positions the three plans for organizations under 250 employees with "a focused set of training requirements". Above that, or if you want self-directed learning across many topics, Go1 steers you to a Premium quote.

There is no checkout. Even the small-team plans start with a personalized trial that "typically lasts 7 days", and Go1 explains that you talk to someone first because it sets the trial up around your industry and team.

All three tiers share more than the marketing suggests. Go1 publishes a comparison matrix on its plans page, and we parsed it row by row. SSO and identity tools, LMS and HRIS integrations, 24/7 support, reporting dashboards, interactive quizzes, completion certificates and mobile playback are ticked on every tier, including the $40 plan. That is unusual in this category: Udemy Business and Coursera both keep single sign-on on their Enterprise plans.

Two rows decide most deals. The first is premium content: if you want Coursera, Pluralsight or Skillsoft courses delivered through Go1, only Premium Pro carries them, and the small-team FAQ confirms those providers are excluded from Essentials Select. The second is service. The step from Premium Essentials to Premium Pro is mostly curation hours and a customer success manager, and Go1 footnotes that the CSM is "included for customers with qualifying investment levels", so a small Pro contract may not get one.

Go1 does not print a Premium rate, so the only numbers available come from buyers. Vendr, which collects prices from purchases it has seen, reports a median Go1 contract of $16,000 a year. These are Vendr figures, not Go1 prices, and your quote will differ.

Vendr also reports 10 to 15 percent better rates on two or three-year terms, annual escalators of 3 to 5 percent at renewal, and optional professional services quoted separately at $5,000 to $25,000 or more. Put those three lines in the negotiation, not after it.

One correction to the directories. Vendr describes the content library as "identical across both tiers". Go1's own matrix says otherwise: the premium brands row is ticked only for Premium Pro. If Coursera or Skillsoft content is the reason you are buying, the cheaper Premium quote will not include it.

A useful check on any Premium quote: at 100 users, Essentials Select 50 lists at $91 a seat. A Premium Essentials offer near $80 to $100 a seat buys the whole catalog for about the same money, which is why Go1 reps move mid-size buyers off Select.

Go1 sits among the course libraries, not the LMS platforms, so compare it with other libraries first. Figures below are annual list prices for 100 users where the vendor publishes one, read from each vendor between 21 and 25 September 2026. The CompanyLMS row is there for scale: it is a platform for training you write, not a library.

On list price alone, Go1 Essentials Select is the cheapest way for a 100-person company to put an outside course catalog in front of staff. The catch is the word "select": 25 courses is a curated shelf, not a library, and the rate you see assumes around 100 seats. Below 100 people, ask what the per-seat rate becomes before you compare it with Skillsoft or Udemy.

Go1 answers this itself: "Go1 isn't a traditional LMS. We're a content platform designed to work seamlessly with your current tools." It can stand alone for a company just starting out, through a lightweight platform called Go1 Learn that assigns courses, sends reminders and pulls completion reports. Most customers plug it into an existing LMS or HRIS through one of its 70-plus integrations.

That matters for what you are actually paying for. A Go1 license buys outside courses: harassment prevention, Excel, leadership, OSHA awareness, software tutorials. It does not write the training that is specific to your company, such as your onboarding path, your safety procedures, your product training or your policy sign-offs. Go1 lets you upload SCORM files and build courses in its authoring tools, and custom course development by its design team carries "additional fees".

If the pressure you are under is proving that every employee completed required training on your own material, and knowing whose certification expires next month, the purchase is a training platform with assignment, due dates, reminders and an audit-ready export. Corporate LMS pricing sets out what those platforms cost per learner, and CompanyLMS bills $4 or $7 per active learner a month with no annual lock-in. Plenty of companies buy both: the platform for required training, and a small Go1 Select plan for the general-skills shelf.

The distinction is also the subject of our Go1 vs 360Learning comparison, a content library against a learning platform.

We read four Go1 pages on the same day, and the headline numbers do not agree. None of this is a scandal, but a buyer quoting these figures internally should know which page they came from.

The course count is consistent at 80,000+. The language figure is the one to question: 120+ likely counts every language any course is available in, including subtitles, while 45 describes where Go1 has real content depth. If multilingual training for a US workforce with Spanish-speaking crews is the requirement, ask for the count of Spanish courses in your chosen topics, not the headline.

Also check the Go1 content you see in an HR suite. Paylocity advertises "95,000+ additional trainings" in its LMS, and the footnote on that page reads "Go1 subscription required". The courses are Go1's, and they are a second contract. Our Paylocity LMS alternatives page covers that bundle.

A Go1 quote is built on tier, license count, term and services. Ask for these in writing before you sign:

The single most useful number to bring back from the trial is utilization. If 100 people get Go1 and 30 open a course outside mandatory training, your real cost per engaged learner is more than three times the list rate. Set a target before signing and review it at month three.
