What the subscription covers
Plans and pricing is the comparison, changing plan is the move, payment methods is the card, and built with Pithy is what the dashboard itself runs on.
The admin interface. Not access to your data.
Every capability stays fully usable from the CLI and your Worker’s API regardless of what anyone pays, and no control-plane route checks a subscription.
Where it lives
In our database, not yours.
We store our own users and organizations, our own subscriptions, and connection metadata. Your subscription is ours to hold; your data never is.
It is billed by the kit’s own payments capability
The dashboard is a Pithy application, and it composes payments to bill for itself.
That is not a gesture — it makes us the first consumer of our own seams, and every gap we hit is filed as a bug in the kit rather than worked around silently.
So the entitlement model on your account is the same one documented for yours: a product grants an entitlement key, gating code names the key, and one indexed lookup per gated request means a change takes effect immediately rather than eventually.
If you stop paying
Your data is unaffected, because none of it was ever here.
Your Worker keeps running. The CLI keeps working. Every capability stays usable.
The UI gates down — reading stays free forever, and acting on production from a browser is what lapses.
If a payment fails
A subscription in its billing-retry grace period still grants its entitlements. That is what grace is for — a failed card should not lock you out mid-period.
Once grace is exhausted the purchase moves to on-hold, which never grants.
Lapsing without notice is possible, and handled
A subscription can lapse with no notification arriving at all — a store simply stops renewing, and nothing announces it.
Which is why expiry is checked on read rather than trusted from a flag: a row saying active with a date in the past does not grant, and it does not need a write to stop granting.
A lapsed entitlement keeps its date, so a screen can say when it ended rather than only that it has.
