FAQ

What exactly happens after I pay?

Complete checkout → go to /activate with the same email → receive your dg_ API key → register watches via API or MCP. See Product for endpoints.

Why is Team $99 instead of Pro?

Team adds 4× watches, 6× faster checks, 2×+ retention, and 10× export capacity. Read the Team breakdown for scenario math and Pro vs Team comparison.

Can I self-host instead?

Yes — the diff engine and MCP client are MIT-licensed on GitHub. Hosted adds continuous cron, history, webhooks, and billing-backed API keys.

Annual billing?

Pay yearly and save 20% — Pro from $31/mo billed annually ($374/yr), Team from $79/mo ($950/yr). Founding members lock in the discounted annual rate too. Use the billing toggle above the plans before checkout.

Founding member pricing?

First 50 Pro customers lock in $29/mo forever (list $39). Team is not discounted at launch.
