Before you begin
Identify the exact capability blocking real work before choosing a plan.
Confirm that the upgrade supports a defined project milestone, collaborator, deployment, or production requirement.
Match the plan to the milestone
You reached a paid capability while working on your project.
That is a useful signal. You are no longer testing whether the idea is possible. You are trying to complete a real business action.
The recommended next plan is the plan that includes the required capability because it adds:
the first required capability
the second required capability
the third required capability
Your current project, prompts, and progress stay intact. Upgrading continues the work you already started.
Before you choose, make sure the plan matches the reason you are upgrading. For example
More credits should support an active build, not an unfocused loop.
GitHub or code export should support ownership and deployment.
Data upload should connect the app to real knowledge.
Evals and monitoring should support an AI workflow people will rely on.
Team access should support actual collaborators.
You reached this recommendation because of what you tried to do, not because a calendar says it is time to buy.
Common mistakes
Upgrading because of time in the trial rather than a real capability need.
Buying more credits while repeatedly rebuilding an unfocused project.
Choosing a plan without confirming deployment, data, collaboration, or monitoring requirements.
Frequently asked questions
Will upgrading remove my existing work?
The intended upgrade path continues the existing project, prompts, and progress. Confirm the current product behavior and plan details before publishing this statement externally.
How should I decide between plans?
Map the plan to the exact capability required for the next milestone, such as more active build usage, data, GitHub, deployment, evaluation, or collaboration.
