Which plan to pickUse the free credits to make two or three decks and judge the output. If you'll keep using it, Plus is the sensible step because it removes the badge and refreshes credits monthly. Only move to Pro if you want the API, custom domains or viewer analytics.Use Free to test it on your own data. If you analyse numbers most weeks, Pro is the plan most users land on because the cheaper tier's message cap runs out fast.
