Pricing
Real work starts at the price of a coffee.
The Studio and the Sketch canvas are free forever — every engine, every template, your own AI key. Open every workstation plus unlimited figures and PDF export for $7 / month on Starter. Add hosted AI and small-team live sessions for $14 / month on Plus, or take the cap off collaboration — unlimited sessions, voice, shared team libraries — for $29 / month on Ultra. Yearly rates; month-to-month is available on every plan. Enterprise adds SSO, audit and dedicated tenancy.
Start free with your own API key — unmetered, forever. Hosted AI on Plus is 200 points a month: a real number, not an asterisked “unlimited”.

Pricing FAQ
12 honest answers.
Why is Free so limited?
Free is two complete tools: the Studio in full — every engine, the whole template catalogue, unlimited AI with your own Anthropic or OpenAI key — and the Sketch canvas (pens, shapes, frames, arrows, a starter wireframe set). What it doesn't include: the other six workstations, Sketch's pro kit (the full wireframe library, presentation mode, version history), hosted AI, PDF and TikZ export, cloud sync, or collaboration. Real tools free forever — the platform is what Starter buys.
Why are there two prices on every tier?
The lower number is the yearly rate (paid once a year), the higher one is month-to-month. Yearly is $7/mo Starter, $14/mo Plus, $29/mo Ultra; monthly is $10, $25 and $49. Same product either way — paying monthly buys flexibility, and that's what it costs. Switch cadence or tier at any time, prorated.
What does Starter buy me?
Everything that runs on your device, with no limits — unlimited figures, PDF and TikZ export, cloud sync, version history. Two catches: no hosted AI (bring your own Anthropic or OpenAI key, free to obtain, you pay them per call) and no collaboration. Starter is a single-player plan by design.
What does Plus add over Starter?
Two things. 200 AI points a month of hosted AI with no key needed (1 point per standard call; multi-step runs cost more), and the features that depend on them — Architect mode, the Lab AI co-pilot, the auto-fix render loop, Diagram Intelligence. Plus also unlocks collaboration for a small team: live co-editing sessions with up to 3 people, live cursors and canvas comments. Points are a hard allowance, not unlimited — top-up packs ($5 / 100 pts, $20 / 500 pts) never expire.
What are AI points?
Plus includes 200 AI points a month and Ultra 1000 — one point per AI call, a hard allowance we publish instead of an asterisked "unlimited". Need more? Top-up packs start at $5 and never expire. Free and Starter skip hosted AI entirely: bring your own API key and AI stays unmetered on every tier.
What is Ultra for?
Teams. Ultra takes the cap off real-time collaboration: unlimited people in a live session, voice and screenshare in every studio, workspace component libraries shared across your whole team, and team spaces with presence. It also lifts hosted AI to 1,000 points a month. If you collaborate daily, Ultra is the plan; if you work alone, Plus is almost certainly enough.
Is Evidence (the research-graph studio) included?
Yes — on every tier. Evidence turns a corpus into a citation-grounded evidence graph: GRADE certainty, contradiction/gap detection, leave-one-out robustness, causal/temporal analysis, PRISMA screening, BibTeX/RIS/CSV/JSON export, and a grounded 'Ask' research assistant. The AI steps (extraction, Ask) run on the same hosted-AI allowance as the rest of Glyph — or your own key, unlimited. Saving living projects that re-synthesize over time uses cloud sync, so it's on Starter and up.
Is collaboration actually live, or coming soon?
Live, in all 8 studios: share a link and everyone who opens it edits the same document, with named cursors, comments anchored to the canvas (or a source line, or a diagram element), and voice on Ultra. Two honest limits — text-based studios (BPMN XML, Lab source, Studio code) hand one person the pen at a time rather than pretending two people can type into one blob, and voice is peer-to-peer with no relay server, so very restrictive networks may not connect. Real-time needs Supabase configured; without it the studios simply stay single-player.
When does Enterprise launch?
Enterprise is contact-driven today — we'll scope, sign a DPA, and add you to the launch cohort. Dedicated tenancy + SAML/SCIM go live with the backend.
Can I switch tiers?
Anytime, prorated. Drop to Free at any point and your saved work stays put.
Can I export and own my data?
Always. Every diagram exports to PNG, SVG, PDF, TikZ, and its native source as JSON. Permalinks are hash-encoded so they don't depend on our servers either.
Training on user diagrams?
Never. AI calls are a thin proxy to the provider; your diagrams are not used to train models and are not stored beyond the request.
