Which plan to pickStart 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.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.Pay monthly for one month before you commit to a year, because refunds are only possible within three days and only if you haven't used credits. Business suits most brands: 3,000 credits arrive at once, so you can spend them when you launch products.
