Coasting downhill

Annual pricing is shown first. Monthly billing remains available.
Understand the real cost
A monthly price tag is not always the whole price.
Token-priced AI is difficult to forecast because the meter measures text and context, not completed work. A low subscription badge may cover chat while API, premium, or specialized usage follows a separate meter. That matters most when you begin using AI for serious work.
A flat stretch
An email, plan, or report
Ordinary business work carries more context and output. Usage is steady, but the meter is still moving.
Climbing a grade
A long specification or file set
Reading, comparing, reasoning across, and reporting on large documents can consume dramatically more tokens—even though it is still one business task.
GearHead prices the work in units people can understand.
Included chat stays in the plan
GearHead does not place a token counter, session cap, or weekly message meter on included-model chat—including the speed and thinking choices eligible for your plan. Regular plan tools remain subject to their stated allowances and normal fair-use boundaries.
Premium models use weighted exchanges
Use account-eligible premium models inside the same GearHead thread. Each has a published registry weight, and a successful exchange counts by that fixed weight—not by the raw length of its prompt and answer—so the same model does not silently become more expensive because the task was complex.
Heavy tools show their own allowance
Document Reviews, media generation, Routines, Market Intelligence, and Phone Agent capacity use visible included allowances, page bands, packs, or monthly tiers instead of an invisible token invoice.
Context-window limits, configured model weights, tool allowances, storage, safety controls, fair use, and upstream provider availability still apply. The exact current allowance and price is shown before purchase and in Billing.
À la carte add-ons
Add only what your business actually needs.
Pro and Teams include useful monthly allowances for selected capabilities. Phone Agent and Pro premium-model access begin as optional add-ons; upgrade only the areas where you need more capacity.

What premium AI can cost during an ordinary workday
Four real jobs—not an unexplained token example.
Realistic starting point: each job begins inside a working thread that already contains about 25,000 tokens. About 20,000 of those tokens can be reused. That is an established conversation—not a blank chat and not an enormous project thread.
Review a 5-page proposal with diagrams
Read the text and visuals, check the logic, flag concerns, and return a useful review.
About 20K new input + 20K reused thread context + 10K reasoning/output.

Lower figures assume the reusable thread context is still cached; higher figures assume that prefix must be written back to cache at the start. The estimates include high/Max reasoning, normal repeated context, and the stated searches; the research inputs are totals across several search and reading passes, not one giant prompt. These are raw API estimates, not a promise of the exact overage invoice a hosted subscription will produce. Regional processing, unusually dense files, larger threads, retries, or additional tool passes can cost more. Rates verified 2026-09-11.

Competitor prices and limits checked September 11, 2026 against the linked provider pages. Products are not identical, and provider prices, limits, models, and terms can change. GearHead's no-cap statements describe GearHead-imposed count or session caps on eligible included use; normal fair-use, safety, storage, file-size, context-window, and upstream availability boundaries still apply. Premium models, Phone Agent, media, and selected metered tools use the published finite allowances shown on this page. Product names and trademarks belong to their respective owners.
Pricing FAQ
Honest answers to real questions.
What's the difference between GearHead Personal and Pro?
GearHead Personal ($15 standard) provides multiple AI providers, all eight personas, full customization, memory, and practical everyday tools for one person. GearHead Pro ($29) adds professional operations: clients, projects, specialty tools, integrations, and business workflows.
Why choose GearHead Personal instead of one AI subscription?
ChatGPT, Claude, and Gemini are strong general AI products. GearHead's value is that one account gives you models from several providers, persistent GearHead memory, eight working personas, complete visual and personality customization, and preassembled everyday tools without making you build the assistant yourself.
What does “no chat caps on included models” mean?
GearHead does not impose a session, weekly, or monthly message counter or meter included-model use by tokens. The model's registered context window still limits how much can fit in one request, and normal fair-use, safety, abuse-prevention, and upstream provider-availability controls still apply. Premium-model usage is separate and counted as finite weighted messages, not tokens.
How does the Friends & Family referral work?
Active Personal, Pro, and Teams users receive a personal invite link. The new customer gets one user or seat-month at the plan they choose. After their first successful paid invoice, the referring account earns the lower of its own monthly user/seat value and the new customer's. Teams rewards cover one seat, not the whole company, and annual signups still use one monthly value.
Why is there a 2-seat minimum on Teams?
The Teams plan unlocks shared memory, role-based permissions, and team coaching features that only make sense with multiple people. If you're working solo, Pro is the right fit. It is not a downgrade, it is a different tool. When you bring on partners or staff, that's when Teams pays for itself.
Which add-ons have included monthly allowances?
Pro and Teams include plan-specific allowances for Market Intelligence, Routines, Document Reviews, and image/video generation. Teams also includes 200 weighted premium-model messages per account. Pro premium-model access and Phone Agent service are optional from the start. The exact allowance and upgrade price is shown above and in Billing.
Can I switch plans later?
Yes, anytime. Upgrade, downgrade, add seats, change add-ons. Changes are prorated, and there are no annual commitments unless you choose annual billing for the discount.
Is there a free trial?
When trials are available, the signup page will offer one directly. A new Personal customer using a Friends & Family invite receives 30 days free with a payment method on file; Pro receives one base user-month and Teams receives one base seat-month at Checkout. You can also request a demo before choosing a business plan.
What payment methods do you accept?
All major credit cards, ACH, and annual invoicing for Teams customers. We use Stripe for processing. No bitcoin, no crypto, no PayPal (yet).
Do you offer non-profit or education discounts?
Yes. Non-profits with 501(c)(3) status, educational institutions, and verified students get reduced pricing. Contact us with your details.
What about enterprise or custom builds?
For companies that need their own white-labeled AI build, fully custom agents, your own data sources, your own playbooks. We license the underlying platform as the GearHead Framework. We build it with you. You own the result.
