# Pricing

Building the schedule is free and stays free. Pay when you want the calendar out of exceptwhen and into the places you actually look.

## What is free

Building one schedule is free and does not expire. The free preview shows one sample turn plus one block from each cited clause.

 Time limit **None** Free limits **1 schedule, 1 feed token** Card required **No**

- Write the plan in the schedule language, including the exceptions.
- Check that every cited clause produces at least one visible block.
- Preview one complete declared cycle when the schedule declares one; otherwise preview one block per cited clause.

A schedule you have written stays yours to open and revise whether or not you ever pay. The full resolved horizon is part of Calendar Export and Live Calendar.

## Calendar Export

Download the finished calendar as an .ics file and import it anywhere. Fix a rule and export again at no extra cost.

 **$29** one time  

## Live Calendar

Publish a subscribable feed. Every device that subscribed, including the other household, picks up a corrected schedule without anyone re-importing a file.

 **$8** per month  **$79** per year

2 months free, $6.58 effective monthly

## Account states

Checkout and webhooks record 6 billing states. A feed that was never subscribed serves a notice instead of events. A subscriber URL for a lapsed account returns the events already published with a notice attached, but it is no longer an active serving feed.

When a subscription is past due or canceled after its paid period, the account can see its schedules and preview stored calendars. It cannot edit, mint feed tokens, change feed settings, publish, serve a feed, or export until access is restored.

 No payment

### Free

The account can author one schedule and preview a sample, with no time limit.

One schedule, one feed token, and a clause-indexed sample preview. The feed serves a notice rather than events.

Paid access

### One-time paid

The account has bought Calendar Export.

The calendar can be exported as a file, including after later edits. Feeds do not publish.

Paid access

### Subscription active

The account has Live Calendar in good standing.

The feed publishes, and exporting the same calendar as a file is included.

Payment issue

### Subscription past due

A renewal payment did not go through.

Already-published .ics feeds keep serving their events with a notice, while .json feeds, new feed tokens, feed setting changes, publishing, schedule edits and exports are refused until payment is fixed.

Access ending

### Subscription canceled

Live Calendar has been canceled.

After the paid period ends, already-published .ics feeds keep serving their events with a notice, while .json feeds, new feed tokens, feed setting changes, publishing, schedule edits and exports are refused until the plan is active again.

Manual grant

### Admin comped

An operator has granted access without checkout.

The same access as a paid subscription.
