Blog AI has three monthly plans. Each includes a monthly allowance of credits, a number of sites and weekly AI-visibility tracking. You can start, change or cancel a plan from the Billing page at any time; payments are handled by Stripe.

Every plan includes WordPress and Strapi publishing, fact-checked posts, Search Console and Google Analytics for every post, up to 5 years of your Google search history (Google itself keeps 16 months), refresh suggestions and email support. Prices are in US dollars. VAT may be added at checkout, depending on where you are. Plans are billed monthly; you can cancel any time.

Choose a plan

  1. Open Billing. Go to Billing. Without a plan, it says No plan and lists the plans.
  2. Pick a plan. Click the plan's button. If you came from the pricing page, your pick is highlighted.
  3. Pay on Stripe. You're taken to Stripe's secure checkout. Enter your card and billing details. If you have a promotion code, there's a field for it.
  4. Come back to Blog AI. You'll see "Payment received — updating your account…", then "Your plan is active". Your credits arrive as soon as Stripe confirms the payment, usually within seconds.

Blog AI never sees or stores your full card number: Stripe handles it.

Upgrade

Click Upgrade to a bigger plan on the Billing page. Stripe shows what you'll pay now and confirms the change.

  • You pay the difference straight away, for the rest of your current month only.
  • You get the extra credits straight away, in the same proportion. Upgrade halfway through your month and you get about half the difference in credits.
  • More sites and questions are available at once, and any read-only sites become writable again.

Downgrade

Click Switch to a smaller plan. The change is scheduled for the end of your current month: the Billing page shows "Switching to" the new plan on that date, and you keep your current plan until then.

  • You keep the credits you have. The smaller allowance starts at your next renewal.
  • If the smaller plan includes fewer sites, your oldest sites stay writable up to the new limit and the rest become read-only. Nothing is deleted. See Adding your site.

Cancel

  1. Open Billing and click Manage subscription & invoices. This opens Stripe's customer portal.
  2. Cancel the plan there. Stripe asks why; your answer helps us.
  3. Your plan runs to the end of the month you've paid for. The Billing page shows the date it ends, and Resume plan if you change your mind before then.

After it ends:

  • Your credits stay yours. You can still spend them on one site. You just don't get new monthly credits.
  • You keep the free plan: the audit, your Actions list and the performance report.
  • Weekly AI-visibility tracking stops.
  • Sites beyond the free plan's 1 site become read-only.

Cancelling doesn't refund the current month.

Buy credits without changing plan

Under Buy credits on the Billing page, choose a pack: 10, 30 or 50 credits, at $15 per 10 credits. Top-up credits never expire, and work with or without a plan. See Understanding credits.

Invoices, receipts and card details

Manage subscription & invoices opens Stripe's portal, where you can:

  • download every invoice and receipt
  • change your card or payment method
  • add or change your billing address and tax ID (for business customers)
  • switch between plans

Stripe also emails you a receipt for each payment.

If a payment fails

When a renewal payment fails:

  1. Blog AI emails you and the Billing page shows "Your last payment failed" with Update payment method.
  2. Stripe tries again automatically over the following days.
  3. You keep your plan meanwhile: your sites and existing credits work as normal. New monthly credits arrive only once the payment goes through.
  4. Update your card with the button, and the next retry should succeed.

If every retry fails, the plan ends as if cancelled. You can't change plans while a payment is overdue: update your card first.

Common questions

Is there a yearly plan?

Not at the moment. Plans are monthly.

Can I buy extra sites without changing plan?

No. To add sites, move up a plan. If you need more than Agency includes, contact us.

What happens to my Google history if I cancel?

Nothing for 30 days. If you choose a plan again within that time, everything is still there, including history older than the 16 months Google keeps. After 30 days your site keeps the last 3 months, like any free account, and the older history is deleted. Google can't give that older history back, so if it matters to you, download it first: on Performance, pick All history and click Download CSV.

Do I get a refund if I cancel?

Cancelling stops future payments; the current month isn't refunded. If something went wrong, contact us.
