Our take
Pick NotePlan if markdown daily-note users who will pay $99.99/yr — not Things Mac $49.99 unless they want a lighter Today list. Pick Todoist if individuals who will stay on Beginner at $0 (5 personal projects) while they open a first Today list, then Pro at $5/month yearly ($60) when they need 300 projects / calendar layout — not Business $8/user yearly ($96) first unless they need a shared team workspace.
