Billing questions, answered
Is there a free plan?
Yes. The Starter plan is free forever and includes 3 boards, a 5-person workspace and 50 ArchitectAI credits per month. No credit card required.
How does ArchitectAI usage work?
Each plan includes a monthly pool of AI credits. Generation, reviews and document creation consume credits; simple edits and collaboration are always free. You can top up or upgrade at any time.
Can we self-host or use a private cloud?
Enterprise customers can deploy HLDForge in a private cloud or fully self-hosted environment, with the same collaboration and AI features, plus data residency options.
What happens to our data if we cancel?
Your boards remain exportable in open formats (JSON, PNG, SVG, PDF) for 30 days after cancellation. You can export everything before or after you leave.
