« Our free plan is permanent and costs nothing. »
« A load plan travels: sales quotes it, logistics validates it, the forklift driver executes it. We don't charge for every pair of eyes. Viewers are free, always. »
« None of our tiers triggers a mandatory sales call. »
« Every price is on this page. Including the big ones. »
« Full 3D and manual editing are in every plan, including the free one. »
« A plan you sent to your client stays viewable forever. »
« You can export all your plans, even after you stop paying. »
Yes. Upgrades are immediate and prorated for the remaining period. Downgrades take effect at the next renewal. Everything happens from your account — no call, no justification.
Two clicks, from the Account page. No notice period, no retention form, no mandatory call. Your plan stays active until the end of the period you already paid for, then switches to Discovery.
Nothing dies. Your plans stay viewable, your share links stay online forever, and you can export all of your plans as CSV and PDF, even after cancelling. No data is ever held hostage.
Yes. It is not a trial: 3 load simulations per month, the full 3D view and manual editing, with no time limit and no credit card. And opening a shared plan never requires an account or a licence.
All prices are shown excluding VAT. The applicable VAT depends on your country; EU businesses with a valid intra-community VAT number are billed under the reverse-charge mechanism. The exact amount is shown before payment.
Credit and debit cards (Visa, Mastercard, American Express) via Stripe. Annual Business and Enterprise plans can also be paid by bank transfer, on invoice. Every payment comes with a downloadable invoice.
Loading a container occasionally without subscribing: €4.99 for 72 hours of full Pro access, limited to 2 purchases per entity. From your third load in a year, the annual Pro plan at €79.99 becomes the better deal.
