With automatic top-ups on, the 200-credit pack is bought for you when your balance drops under 100 credits. You can switch that off in Settings.

What is a credit?

Credits meter the work your agents do. Every plan comes with credits each month, and what a piece of work costs depends on how much it involves.

What uses credits

The work your agents do, never the prompt behind it. Scheduled tasks, repeating checks and app triggers you set up use credits each time they run, and the app shows the cost before you set one up. You see the cost of every run in Activity.

What doesn't

The platform's own upkeep, like keeping your agents' memory tidy, is free. Connecting apps and channels costs nothing extra on any plan.

When you run out

Automatic top-ups are on unless you turn them off: under 100 credits, the card on file is charged $25 for 200 more and the work carries on. With them off, your agents pause at zero until you add credits or your plan renews. We tell you at 50%, 80% and 100% of your monthly credits.

Questions about pricing

How does the free trial work, and when am I charged?

Starter is free for 3 days, with 300 credits to use and up to 3 agents, for you alone. You add a card at sign-up and nothing is charged that day. We remind you by email, and with a text from your agent if you've linked a phone, 24 hours and 3 hours before the trial ends. If you don't cancel, Starter renews at $29 a month when the trial ends.

How do I cancel?

Open Cicada, go to Settings, then Billing, and choose Manage billing. Cancel before the trial ends and you're never charged. Your workspace, agents and memory stay if you cancel.

What happens when my credits run out?

Automatic top-ups are on unless you turn them off: when your balance drops under 100 credits, the card on file is charged $25 for 200 more and the work carries on. You can switch them off in Settings. With them off, your agents pause at zero until you add credits or your plan renews. Either way, we tell you at 50%, 80% and 100% of your monthly credits.

Do unused credits roll over?

On Growth and Business, yes: unused plan credits carry into the next month. On Starter, the month's 300 credits reset when the plan renews (on a yearly Starter plan, when the year renews). Credits from packs and automatic top-ups never expire on any plan, and your plan's credits are used first. Everyone in your workspace shares the same credits.

How does yearly billing work?

A year costs ten times the monthly price, so two months are free: Starter $290, Growth $990 and Business $2,490 a year. You get twelve months of the plan's credits when the year is paid. Choose yearly in Settings, then Billing.

Can I change plans later?

Yes, any time, in Settings, then Billing. Moving up takes effect at once: you pay the difference for the rest of the month and get the matching share of the new plan's credits. Moving down takes effect when the current month (or year) ends. Every plan has the same apps, channels and controls; moving up adds credits, agents, people, meeting notes on Business and how much can run on its own.

Who counts as a person on my plan?

Anyone you add to your workspace, each with their own agents. Starter is for you alone, Growth takes up to 10 people and Business has no limit. No plan charges per person: everyone shares the plan's credits, and a team that outgrows its plan moves up. People in your group chats, and people your agents message for you, aren't members of your workspace and don't count.

Which plans have meeting notes?

Business. Your agent joins your Zoom, Google Meet, Teams or Webex calls, records them and sends you the notes. On Starter and Growth, send your agent a recording and it writes the notes from that.

What are credit packs?

Extra credits you can buy any time, on any plan: 200 for $25, 1,000 for $100, 3,000 for $270. For 10,000 credits or more, email support@cicadalabs.io for a custom price. Pack credits never expire, on any plan. With automatic top-ups on, the 200-credit pack is bought for you when you run low.

What does Enterprise include?

Everything in Business, with credits and agents sized to your team, and help setting up your workforce. Email support@cicadalabs.io to talk it through.
