CARAPACE Pro: $4.99/month or $39.99/year, 7 days free. Billed by Apple through your App Store account; cancel any time in Settings → Subscriptions. The free tier is not a trial and does not expire.
Introductory-trial eligibility is determined by Apple, and Pro renews into the paid subscription unless cancelled. A device tier bought before CARAPACE Pro existed keeps Home unlocked at no charge: use Restore Purchases in the app. Prices are in US dollars; local App Store pricing applies. Your agents’ AI and any voice-provider charges are separate.
Our Terms keep pairing free and unlimited (§5) and commit to keeping the installer free to download and run permanently, a promise that no later update of the Terms can take back (§10).
