# Choose a plan

![Screenshot: choose-plan](../_images/screenshots/choose-plan.svg)


The plans page (`/plans`) shows the available tiers with **Simple &
Transparent Pricing** — pick monthly or annual billing, and adjust users and
storage to see the price update live before you commit.

## What you can do here

- **Pick a paid plan** — select users, storage, and billing cycle, then
  continue to checkout with that configuration.
- **Start a free trial/demo** — available plans marked as trial-eligible
  offer a "start demo" action that skips payment entirely and drops you
  straight into your dashboard with a temporary instance.

## What happens when you pick a plan

Selecting a plan calls `POST /api/subscription/select-plan` with your chosen
plan, user count, storage, workers, and billing cycle, then carries that
selection forward to registration or checkout depending on whether you're
already logged in.

:::{admonition} Known issue
:class: warning

In the current build, selecting a paid plan navigates to
`/subscription/checkout` on the frontend, but that route isn't registered
in the app's router (only `/subscription/confirm` is, backed by
`SubscriptionConfirm.js`) — this looks like a live bug in the plan-selection
flow rather than a docs gap. Worth confirming/fixing before relying on this
page for a real checkout walkthrough.
:::

Starting a demo instead calls `POST /api/subscription/demo` and takes you
straight to `/dashboard`.
