Billing & plans
CloudyBot sells predictable plans with hard monthly caps — when you hit a limit, the service pauses until reset or upgrade, not silent overages. Live numbers: pricing page. Metering detail: limits & caps.
Plan tiers (self-serve)
Runtime tiers are Free, Growth, Pro, and Max. Each unlocks more AI credits, browser minutes, Specialists, cron jobs, and features (manual model picker on Pro+, workflow recipes on Growth+, SEO audit pipeline on Max). Enterprise is contact-only — not a self-serve checkout tier.
Older Stripe or database slugs like starter, base, or agency normalize to Growth or Max automatically; your dashboard shows the current name.
Checkout and payment
- Stripe handles card entry, invoices, and tax where applicable. CloudyBot does not store your full card number.
- Choose monthly or annual billing at checkout (annual pricing is shown on pricing).
- Upgrades from the dashboard or pricing page typically unlock higher caps immediately after payment succeeds.
- Downgrades and cancellation follow the terms shown in Stripe at checkout — use the customer portal for timing on your next invoice.
Manage subscription
In the dashboard: Settings → Manage subscription opens the Stripe customer portal. There you can update payment methods, download receipts, switch plans where offered, or cancel renewal.
Billing questions: billing@cloudaxis.ai (include your account email). Self-service paths are listed on contact.
Usage resets vs subscription renewal
- Free — AI credits and related meters reset each calendar month.
- Paid — usage counters reset on your Stripe billing period (tied to
invoice.paid/ subscription rollover). - Reset sets
usedback to 0 and restores the full allowance — unused credits do not roll over.
One-time products
The SEO Audit Pack (seo-audit-pack) is a separate one-time purchase — three full audit runs within seven days — not a monthly subscription. Pro and Max subscribers also receive included audit runs per billing period; see pricing for counts.
Referrals and bonus credits
Referral links (/?ref= eight-character code) attribute signups to your account. When rewards are enabled, successful referrals grant bonus task credits to the overflow wallet — the same pool used after monthly AI credits are exhausted or for credit-pack top-ups. Dashboard: Settings → Account → Invite friends.
Common questions
Where do I change plans?
Use Settings → Manage subscription in the dashboard, or start checkout from pricing. Upgrades usually apply immediately; downgrades follow Stripe portal rules.
Is billing handled securely?
Yes. Card payments run through Stripe. CloudyBot stores subscription metadata, not your full card number.
What if checkout is blocked?
Some environments enable a beta gate that blocks self-serve checkout — request access from the dashboard prompt or contact support.
Do founding-member or promo rates stack?
Promotional pricing is shown at checkout when eligible. See founding members for current offers; terms at purchase apply.
