Plans and limits
Termdeck charges for the control plane. The model tokens are yours and bill to Anthropic, OpenAI, or xAI under the subscriptions you already have.
Current prices are on the pricing section of the homepage, which is the authority. This page describes what each tier includes.
The two plans
Termdeck has two plans, Starter and Pro. There is no free plan: an account needs one of them to connect a machine or start a turn.

Starter is for one machine and a couple of projects. Pro is for working across several machines and many projects at once: more machines, as many projects and saved logins as you have, your whole usage history, and a bigger terminal grid.
Saved logins are the extra Claude and ChatGPT accounts you keep on a machine to switch between (see Accounts). Starter keeps 2 of each.
The trial
Every new account starts with a 14-day free trial of Starter or Pro. After you sign up and take the short tour (or skip it), Termdeck shows a Start your 14-day free trial screen: pick a plan and enter a card at checkout. Pro is the plan the screen recommends; if you would rather start on Starter, pick it there. Until you do, you cannot connect a machine or start a turn.
When you press a plan's button, the screen says Opening secure checkout… until the payment page loads, which can take a few seconds. Checkout is run by Airwallex, our payment provider, and the checkout page shows the merchant as Vortiq LLC, the company behind Termdeck. That is the right page.
Your card is not charged during the trial. The first charge is on day 15. To pay nothing, cancel before then from Settings, then Account, with Cancel plan.
Each account gets one free trial. Subscribing again after cancelling is charged straight away.
Going over a limit
Nothing is deleted or hidden when you exceed a cap.
- Machines. Agents beyond your plan's machine count are refused at connection time. Since that happens in a terminal nobody is watching, the dashboard names exactly which machines are affected. Remove a machine you no longer use, or move to a plan with more.
- Projects and logins. The ones you already have stay. Adding another past the limit opens an upgrade prompt instead. Remove one to make room, or move to Pro.
- Usage history. On Starter the usage page goes back 7 days. The longer ranges show as locked and open an upgrade prompt.
- Terminals. On Starter a terminal window holds a 2x2 grid. Opening a fifth terminal in a full window opens an upgrade prompt. You can still swap what a pane shows, or open another window.
Changing or cancelling
Manage your plan from Settings, then Account. Under Subscription you see the plan you are on, its status (Active, Free trial, Cancelled or Ended), what it costs, and the date that matters next: when it renews, when the trial ends, or when access ends. Under Plans, Starter and Pro sit side by side with yours marked.
- Subscribe. Press the button on a plan's card to go to checkout.
- Switch plans. On a paid plan, choose Switch to on the other card. A window says what happens to your bill before anything changes. The new plan starts right away and your renewal date stays the same. Moving up adds the difference for the rest of the billing period to your next bill; moving down credits the unused part of the old plan to it. Nothing is charged at the moment you switch. During a free trial, switching just changes which plan the trial is for. Moving to Starter applies its limits straight away (see Going over a limit). A plan that is set to end, or one that came from a code, cannot be switched this way; Switch to then opens an email to us instead.
- Cancel. Choose Cancel plan at the bottom of the Subscription card. You keep the plan until the end of the period you paid for.
When a trial or subscription starts you get a confirmation email, and its Cancel my subscription link cancels without signing in. A second email confirms the cancellation. Payments are not refunded; the refund and cancellation policy has the details and the exceptions.
When a plan ends, by cancelling or by a failed payment, nothing is deleted. Your machines stay registered, your chats stay on your machines, and your rules stay saved. Nothing runs until you subscribe again, and then everything picks up where it was.

Where model costs go
Termdeck never bills you for tokens and never resells model access. Turns run on your machine under your own Claude, ChatGPT, or SuperGrok subscription, and the provider bills you as it always has. The usage page shows what those tokens would have cost at published API rates, which is useful for comparing projects and models against each other and is not an invoice.
