Compare plans in detail

Plans use research credits (new sources processed) and craft credits (successful Craft Article runs) per usage period—Stripe billing cycle when subscribed; signup-anchored cycle on Free. Deleting an article or source does not refund credits. Free adds a stricter product cap: one AI craft per article, then research locks until upgrade. Credit amounts ship with enforcement and may be tuned—see docs/plan-gating.md.
