Pro

$9/month, or $90/year (2 months free)

For anyone whose backups actually matter: ransomware detection, bit-rot monitoring, config auditing, and proof for the people who ask for it.

  • Everything in Free
  • Ransomware / anomaly canary — flags mass file rewrites, extension changes, and entropy spikes your backup tool's own exit code won't catch
  • Archive integrity monitor — continuous bit-rot detection for cold/archival data, one flat price no matter how large the archive gets
  • Backup config & retention auditor — catches real footguns in your backend's actual policy before they cost you the one snapshot you needed
  • Insurer-grade verification ledger — a signed, tamper-evident record of every successful verification, exportable for a cyber-insurance underwriter or auditor
  • Organizations with up to 5 clients — group checks by client, share access with teammates
  • 14-day money-back guarantee, cancel anytime from the dashboard

Team

$49/month, or $490/year (2 months free)

For MSPs and consultancies managing more than 5 clients' backups from one account.

  • Everything in Pro
  • Unlimited clients per organization — no per-endpoint fees, ever, however many clients you add
  • For MSPs and consultancies past the point a single Pro account's 5-client ceiling makes sense
  • Same white-label CSV/PDF export, team roles, and email-invite flow, just without the client cap
  • 14-day money-back guarantee, cancel anytime from the dashboard

Pricing questions

What do I actually get with Pro?

Four things the free plan doesn't have: a ransomware/anomaly canary that watches for mass file changes a normal pass/fail ping would miss, an archive integrity monitor for bit-rot on cold data, a config & retention auditor that flags real misconfigurations, and a cryptographically signed verification ledger you can hand to an insurer or auditor. All four run alongside the free plan's unlimited checks and alerts, not instead of them.

Which backends do the Pro features cover today?

Honestly, not all four yet, on purpose — we'd rather ship one backend verified against a real repository than four guessed from documentation. The ransomware canary is live for restic today, with Borg, Kopia, and Duplicati in active development. The config auditor currently covers Kopia policies, since restic and Borg apply retention at prune time with no stored policy to read back — that needs a different design, not yet built. The archive monitor and verification ledger work identically for every backend already.

Monthly or annual — what's the difference besides price?

Nothing else. On either Pro or Team, monthly and annual give you the exact same features — annual is just cheaper (two months free) if you're sticking around. Switch anytime by canceling one and starting the other.

What's the difference between Pro and Team?

Team is Pro plus one thing: no ceiling on how many clients you can manage inside an organization. Pro already includes organizations, up to 5 clients, team member roles, and email invites — Team only matters once you're managing more than 5 clients and need that cap removed. See the MSP/consultant page for the full breakdown.

How does billing actually work?

Through Paddle, our Merchant of Record — they handle payment processing and sales tax/VAT so we never see or store your card details. Cancel anytime from the dashboard's Plan section; you keep Pro until the end of the period you already paid for, then it switches to Free automatically. See the refund policy for the 14-day money-back guarantee.

Is the free plan a trial that will expire?

No. There's no trial clock counting down. The free tier stays genuinely useful for a small setup on its own, indefinitely, whether or not you ever upgrade.

Free stays free. Upgrade to Pro whenever you actually need it.
