PLANS & BILLING

Plans, trials, and what happens after

4 min read · Updated Jul 2026 · Applies to all plans

CoverQueue is self-serve: sign up, use it, and subscribe when you're ready, no sales call. Every org starts with the full experience on a trial, and even the free tier keeps your archive readable forever.

The 14-day trial

A new organization starts on a 14-day, full-featured trial: the complete Team experience, with no card required. A quiet banner shows the days remaining and links to the Plans screen. The trial is managed inside the app, not through a card, so nothing charges when it ends.

Free lets a solo manager feel the full log-plus-coverage-plus-search loop indefinitely; share links and volume are the paywalls. Prices and limits are launch hypotheses tuned over time. See the pricing page for a side-by-side comparison.

What happens after the trial

When the trial ends, pick a plan from Settings → Plans & Billing, or do nothing and drop to Free. Either way:

  • Nothing is deleted. Your archive stays readable, searchable, and exportable regardless of tier.
  • Over-limit creation is gated with an inline upgrade prompt naming the limit, never a dead-end error.
Tip

Manage everything (upgrades, downgrades, cancellation, cards, and invoices) through the Stripe customer portal, reachable from Plans & Billing. No card data touches CoverQueue.

Heads up

If a payment fails, you get a 14-day grace period (with an in-app banner for the owner) before the org drops to Free behavior. Read access is preserved throughout.

Common questions

Do I lose data if I downgrade? No. Downgrading never ransoms your data; full export is on every tier. See Export everything.

Is there an annual discount? Yes. Annual billing is two months off.

Can I delete my org entirely? Yes, with a confirmation; deletion runs on a 30-day grace period before data is permanently removed.
