Question 1

Is the free plan really free?

Accepted Answer

Yes — no credit card required to sign up. The free plan gives you 5 articles per month, with 1 project, 1 CMS connection, and AI images. If you want more articles, content clusters, deep research, webhooks, and unlimited projects, you can upgrade at any time.

Question 2

How does the free trial work?

Accepted Answer

When you sign up, you get a 3-day free trial with full access to the Launch plan — no credit card required. After your trial ends, you can choose to subscribe to any paid plan or continue on the free plan. You won't be charged automatically.

Question 3

How much do I save with annual billing?

Accepted Answer

Annual billing saves you  25% compared to monthly : Launch: $19/month → $14/month annually (save $57/year) Growth: $49/month → $37/month annually (save $147/year) Pro: $99/month → $74/month annually (save $297/year) Scale: $249/month → $187/month annually (save $747/year)

Question 4

Can I cancel or downgrade my plan anytime?

Accepted Answer

Yes, you can cancel or downgrade your subscription anytime with no penalties or fees. After cancelling, you'll maintain full access until the end of your current billing period. Your content, clusters, and settings are preserved — you can always upgrade again later. Downgrades take effect at the start of your next billing cycle, so you never lose access you've paid for.

Question 5

Do you offer refunds?

Accepted Answer

Because every new account includes a free trial of a paid plan with no credit card required, we do not offer refunds once a subscription has been charged. We encourage you to use the trial period to make sure Machined is the right fit before subscribing. If you have any issues, please reach out to us at   support@machined.ai   and we'll do our best to help.
