| Which plan to pick | Arcads does not publish prices, so sign up for the trial and check the plan screen before you commit. Starter is enough to test whether the style works for your product; move up only once you have a winning script you want to localise or vary at scale. | Start on Free and let the read-only agent audit one account for a fortnight. Copilot is the sweet spot for most small brands, because the analysis is the valuable part and you can make the edits yourself. Go to Operator once you trust its suggestions enough to approve them from your phone. | Start on Free and use it until the lack of attribution actually costs you a decision. Foundation is the plan most brands need, but it is quoted on your revenue and locks you in for a year, so ask for the full price table before you commit. |
