| Which plan to pick | 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 build your welcome and abandoned cart flows before you pay anything. Move to Email when you cross 250 contacts, and only add SMS once email is working, because text messages cost extra per send. | Starter is the only published price and it covers unlimited seats and accounts, so most brands under $50,000 a month in spend start and stay there. If you are not spending at least $20,000 a month on ads, $999 is a big slice of your budget and the native ad reports will do for now. |
