Subscription
The Subscription page is where you select and manage your ai12z plan, choose your AI model, and estimate usage with the Plan Calculator.
The Pay As You Go plan is for trial and development only. Any bot running on the Pay As You Go plan will display a watermark at the bottom indicating it is in development mode. You must upgrade to a paid subscription before going live with a production site.
Your Current Plan & AI Model
At the top of the Subscription page you'll see two controls:
- Your Current Plan — Displays the plan you are currently on
- AI Model — A dropdown to select which AI model powers your agents
Choosing an AI Model
ai12z supports a wide range of models including:
- GPT-4.1, GPT-4.1-mini, GPT-4.1-nano
- GPT-4o, GPT-4o-mini
- GPT-5, GPT-5-mini, GPT-5-nano
- Gemini 2.5 Pro, Gemini 2.5 Flash, Gemini 2.5 Flash Lite, Gemini 3 Pro
- Claude Opus 4, Claude Opus 4.5, Claude Sonnet 4, Claude Sonnet 4.5
- Amazon Nova Micro, Nova Lite, Nova Pro, Nova Premier
- Llama 4 Maverick, Llama 4 Scout
Our most popular and recommended model is GPT-4.1-mini. It delivers an excellent balance of response quality, speed, and cost efficiency for most use cases. If you are unsure which model to choose, start here.
Changing to a more expensive model will affect your token consumption. If you are on a subscription plan, the remaining balance from your current billing period is applied toward the upgraded cost.

ai12z offers several plan tiers to fit teams of all sizes. You can scroll through available plans on the Subscription page.

Plan Calculator
Not sure which plan is right for you? Click the calculator link at the top of the Subscription page to open the ai12z Plan Picker.
The calculator estimates your monthly AI query volume based on your actual traffic and usage patterns, then recommends the smallest plan that fits.
How to Use the Calculator
1. Enter your annual user sessions
Enter your total annual user sessions. You can find this number in Google Analytics or your site analytics platform under Sessions or Users per year.
2. Select your site type
The site type sets a default questions-per-session estimate based on typical usage patterns for that type of site:
| Site Type | Default q/session |
|---|---|
| B2C Ecommerce / Retail | 0.25 |
| Support / Docs / Portal | Higher |
| And more... | Varies |
3. Select your AI usage level
- Light — AI is used occasionally
- Moderate — AI assists but is not the primary experience
- Heavy — AI is central to the experience
4. Select Business Features (if applicable)
Enabling any of the following features requires the Business plan or higher:
- Personalization
- Directives
- HIPAA
- SSO
- Custom integrations
- Persona intent
5. Adjust Headroom (buffer)
The headroom slider adds a safety margin above your estimated usage to handle unexpected spikes, data inaccuracies, or growth between plan reviews. Recommended: 15–25% (default: 20%).
6. Adjust Seasonality factor
If your traffic peaks during certain times of year (holidays, tax season, back-to-school, etc.), increase this value to account for peak months. If traffic is steady year-round, keep it at 1.0x.
Reading the Recommendation
The right panel shows:
- Estimated AI questions / month — Your projected monthly query volume
- Recommended plan — The smallest plan that covers your projected usage
- Plan limit — The query cap for that plan
- Projected usage — Your estimate vs. plan limit (shown as a progress bar)
Click Use this Plan to go directly to that plan on the Subscription page, or Close to return without selecting.
Tip: If you use
aiSearchorinterceptheavily (type-ahead or "show more" features), select a site type with higher intent (Support / Docs / Portal) or bump usage to Heavy to avoid underestimating your query volume.
Purchase Subscription
After selecting a plan, you are taken to the purchase screen to confirm your subscription and complete payment.
Plan Details
At the top of the screen, a summary shows the plan you are purchasing:
- Plan Name — The selected plan (e.g., Starter, Growth)
- Model — The AI model associated with this subscription (e.g., gpt-4.1-mini)
- Price — The full annual price for the plan
Billing Address
Enter your billing information:
- Full name — Name as it appears on your payment method
- Country or region — Defaults to United States; select your country from the dropdown
- Address — Your billing street address
Prorated Credit Applied
If you have an existing balance or remaining credit from a previous plan, ai12z automatically applies it as a discount on your new subscription. A highlighted notice will show:
"We are applying your remaining credit of $X.XX as a discount."
The final amount due reflects your plan price minus any applied credit. You are only charged the difference.
Payment Method
Choose how you'd like to pay:
- Card — Enter your card number, expiration date (MM/YY), and security code (CVC). Visa, Mastercard, American Express, and Discover are accepted.
- Google Pay — Select the Google Pay tab to pay using your saved Google Pay method.
Completing the Purchase
Once your billing address and payment details are filled in, click Upgrade & Pay to complete the subscription. The button displays the final amount due plus applicable tax.
By subscribing, you authorize ai12z, Inc. to charge your payment method according to the plan terms until you cancel.
After payment, your new plan is active immediately and your agents will operate under the updated query limits and model selection.
Upgrading your Plan or Modal
You can upgrade to a larger plan or a more powerful AI model at any time.
- Prorated credit — When you upgrade, the remaining balance from your current billing period is calculated and applied toward the cost of the new plan. You are only charged the difference.
- Model upgrades — Switching to a more expensive AI model follows the same proration logic — your remaining balance is applied to the new cost.
To upgrade, select the desired plan on the Subscription page and click Select Plan.
Partner: Managing Subscriptions Across Organizations
As a partner, the Subscription page includes an Organization selector that lets you manage plans for each of your sub-organizations independently.
Use the Organization dropdown to select which organization you want to view or assign a subscription to. The AI Model dropdown sets the model for that organization's subscription.
Funding Options for Sub-Organizations
| Scenario | How it works |
|---|---|
| Parent funds sub-org development | Keep the parent organization on Pay As You Go. Sub-organizations share the parent's trial credit while prototyping or in development. No separate payment method is needed. |
| Sub-org billed separately | Apply a Pay As You Go balance or paid subscription directly to a sub-organization using a different credit card. This is useful when a client or sub-org manages their own billing. |
| Sub-org on a paid subscription | Select the sub-organization from the dropdown, choose a plan, and complete the purchase. The subscription is assigned to that sub-organization and only applies to their usage. |
Sub-organizations cannot access Payment or Invoices — all billing is managed from the parent organization account.
