What changes when you go Pro
Starter is great for solo, focused work. Pro is built for the moment your projects get serious — or when you're juggling several at once.
~12× the daily token budget
Pro headroomOn Pro: 5M Tendril tokens per day — about $250/day of agent compute. Effectively unlimited for any solo workflow. A heavy 8-hour day rarely tops $50–80 of compute, so Pro's daily ceiling is the kind of number you don't think about.
On Starter: 400k tokens per day (~$20). Comfortable for a single project at a time. If you're juggling several projects in one session, the cap can pause work mid-flow.
25× the monthly token budget
Pro headroomOn Pro: 100M tokens per month — about $5,000 of compute. Around 1,500–2,500 pipeline runs. More than any single dev hits in practice; this is the cap that keeps the tier honest against multi-user account-sharing, not against you.
On Starter: 4M tokens per month (~$200). About 60–100 pipeline runs. Plenty for casual + serious solo use; if you're running Tendril daily on multiple projects, you'll feel it tighten by month-end.
Run several big projects in the same week
Pro headroomOn Pro: A fresh Complex pipeline run on a real feature is roughly $3 of compute. At Pro daily you can fire off 30 of those without thinking about it. A heavy iteration day across 3 projects barely dents the cap.
On Starter: The same workflow tops the daily cap around the 6th–8th run. You can selectively resume after midnight UTC, but the rhythm pauses.
$19/mo locked for life (founding seats)
Time-limitedOn founding Pro: First 200 Pro subscribers stay at $19/mo forever, even after we move standard Pro to $29/mo. Cancel anytime; resubscribing later still charges the founding rate.
After founding sells out: Standard Pro is $29/mo. Same caps, same features.
Same Tendril, just more room to run
Tier honestyPro is the same Tendril you've been using on Starter, with 5× the daily token cap and 10× the monthly. Upgrading is about when you hit the cap, not what you can do.
If you've hit Starter's daily or monthly cap and the resume-after-reset rhythm is breaking your flow, that's the signal to upgrade. Otherwise stay where you are.
