Questions

Billing and usage

Choose monthly billing or pay for a full year upfront at a lower effective monthly rate. AI, review, and dictation allowances still reset each month.
AI work, editorial reviews, and voice dictation each have a monthly allowance. Your workspace shows a separate meter for each and warns you as a limit approaches. Reaching one allowance pauses that limited AI action until reset or upgrade; writing, editing, reading, and exporting your documents remain available.
Yes, you can upgrade or downgrade at any time. When upgrading, you'll be charged the prorated difference. When downgrading, you'll receive credit toward future billing.
Your paid features remain available through the end of your billing period. After that, your account stays active: you can keep reading and editing existing projects and access projects shared with you, but paid AI features turn off. Projects you own may be deleted after 90 days. Resubscribe anytime to restore paid features.
