Subscription & Credits
The software is free and full-featured; subscriptions buy hosted AI model credits.
Subscription & Credits
CoTrading's business model is straightforward: the software is free and no features are removed or locked. A subscription does not unlock functionality — it buys AI model credits hosted by CoTrading.
What you are paying for
- Not features. Every capability — charts, indicators, AI approval trading, risk controls, live trading, weekly review — is available for free.
- Credits. A subscription provides a monthly allowance of hosted AI model credits, so you can use CoTrading's managed AI without bringing your own model key.
Bring your own key alternative
If you prefer, you can bring your own AI model key (BYO), stored locally, and skip hosted credits entirely. The subscription is a convenience, not a requirement.
Tiers
Monthly plans (annual billing is priced at 10× the monthly rate — roughly two months free):
| Plan | Price / month | What it provides |
|---|---|---|
| Free | $0 | Full software; use your own AI model key. |
| Pro | $20 | Hosted AI credits for regular use. |
| Max | $100 | A larger monthly credit allowance. |
| Ultra | $200 | The largest monthly credit allowance. |
Credits, not capabilities
Higher tiers give you more AI credits, not more features. Pick the tier that matches how much you rely on CoTrading's hosted AI. You can always fall back to your own model key on the Free plan.
