Which Plan Should I Choose?
-----------------------------

**Bronze — Just getting started**
  Perfect if you're learning how to build and test strategies. 50 backtests a month is enough to experiment with dozens of ideas.

**Silver — Serious backtesting** *(Most Popular)*
  Adds the AI Chat Assistant (ask questions about your strategy in plain English) and 200 backtests/month. Ideal for active traders refining their edge.

**Gold — Full platform**
  Unlimited backtests, early access to every new feature, and a dedicated onboarding call. Suited for professional traders and quant researchers.

----

Free Trial
----------

New accounts are eligible for a **free trial of Silver** — no credit card required.

.. tip::
   The trial gives you full Silver access. Use it to test the AI Assistant and see if 200 backtests/month fits your workflow before committing.

----

Managing Your Subscription

1. Log in and go to **Account → Billing Dashboard**.
2. Here you can:

   - See your current plan and renewal date.
