Billing & Subscriptions
Paid plans are billed on a monthly or annual basis. Subscription fees are charged in advance for the corresponding billing period. Unless you cancel before the end of your current period, your subscription may automatically renew at the then-applicable rate.
- Free: no charge, no billing cycle
- Pro: billed monthly, or annually at the discounted rate shown on our Pricing page
- Enterprise: billed according to your custom quote and agreement
- Monthly plans renew every month; annual plans renew every year
- Renewal reminders are sent to your registered email before the renewal date
- You may cancel automatic renewal at any time from your account or by contacting support
Free Trial & Upgrades
Some plans may be offered with a free trial period, such as our 7-day Pro trial. If you do not cancel before the trial ends, you will be billed at the applicable plan rate. Upgrades to a higher plan take effect immediately and are prorated against any remaining balance on your current plan where applicable.
- 7-day Pro trial (no credit card required to start)
- Trial upgrades require no upfront payment
- You will not be charged unless you continue after the trial period
