- Is Explorer really free?
- Yes — free forever, no card, no trial clock. One company, the full four-sentinel methodology, unlimited objectives and actions, unlimited journal, and a small daily AI allowance. It is the whole cascade, not a demo.
- When should I move from Explorer to Advanced?
- When you want the AI at full strength — sentinel fills, executive briefings, the journal advisor — plus Gross Margin and EBITDA tracking, Fathom meeting sync, and the Zonaite team framework. Advanced starts with a 14-day free trial, no card required.
- Is Elite only for fractional CTOs?
- No. Elite is for anyone who needs more than one company, all seven GAAP metrics, historical or future years, or the Teams performance framework. Fractional CTOs are just the most common case.
- Do you charge per company on Elite?
- No. Elite is one flat price for unlimited companies and unlimited team members. Add another engagement at no additional cost.
- How does the AI work?
- Sentinel suggestions, objective name suggestions, executive briefings, and the HQ advisor all run on Claude. No user-provided API keys, no per-call cost to you. Explorer includes a small daily allowance; Advanced and Elite get the full-strength limits.
- How does annual billing work?
- Twenty percent off the monthly rate, billed once a year. You can switch between monthly and annual at any time from your billing page — credit prorates on the next invoice.
- Can I downgrade or cancel?
- Any time. Downgrades take effect at the next billing cycle; cancellations are immediate. Your data stays in the workspace if you re-subscribe within 90 days.
