What HoneyBook is good at
We would rather you picked the right tool than picked ours. Here is the honest case for theirs.
Where HoneyBook wins
- Setup is genuinely quick — a couple of hours rather than a couple of weekends.
- Proposals and contracts look polished out of the box.
- AI features are included on every plan at no extra charge.
- Available in Canada with localised currency.
What each one costs
| Plan | Internoodle | HoneyBook |

| Mid | $99 CAD/mo | $59 USD/mo, $49 annual |

HoneyBook raised prices across all plans in February 2025 — the entry tier went from $19 to $36. Older comparison articles still quote the pre-increase numbers. Our prices are Canadian dollars; HoneyBook publishes in USD. Verified August 2026.

So which one should you pick?
Choose HoneyBook if…
- You want the fastest possible setup and you do your books somewhere else.
- Your work is highly proposal-led and the presentation matters more than the ledger.
- You are happy running a separate accounting subscription alongside.
Choose Internoodle if…
- You would rather not pay for HoneyBook and an accounting product. Their Premium plus a mid-tier accounting subscription lands near $236 CAD a month; our Premium is $99 CAD.
- You file GST/HST and want the books to handle it natively.
- You want email campaigns, texts and social scheduling included rather than bought separately.
- You care where your client data physically lives.
