Questions, answered
Is it free?
Yes. The free plan gives you AI help every day, and Pro gives you about 10,000 AI actions a month. You sign in with Google or a code we email you, so your work follows you to every device.
Will it sound like AI?
It's short and clear, with your dates and the right contact up front. It shares only the reason you pick and nothing more personal.
