Gist membership
Eligible new members get 21 days free; billing starts only after they add a payment method.
Eligible new members get their first 21 days free. No card is required.
Members Gist without limits across every supported content type — articles,
papers, PDFs, YouTube, Google Docs, X/Twitter, and anything you paste into
/try.
This is a one-time trial, not a permanent free tier. You are eligible if your account has never started a Gist subscription. That includes beta-era accounts with no subscription history. Any former subscriber pays when subscribing again, even if the earlier subscription was canceled or never completed.
Subscribe
Open /join and pick $9 monthly or $99 annually. If you are eligible,
Stripe starts the 21-day trial immediately without asking for a payment method.
Both plans include full member access during the trial.
Add a payment method in the Stripe portal before the trial ends to continue on the plan you selected. Billing starts after day 21. If you do not add one, Stripe cancels the subscription at the end of day 21 and member access ends.
Change or cancel
Same place — /join or the account shell at /app. During a
trial, use the Stripe portal to add a payment method or cancel. After billing
starts, switching between monthly and annual prorates automatically.
Billing and refunds
Invoices and payment-method changes live in the Stripe portal linked from
/join. For refunds, or anything billing-related that the portal does not
cover, see Manage your subscription.
