No subscriptions. On purpose.
A subscription pays us more the more dependent you get — a bad incentive for a tool whose whole job is to make you more capable. So in Cursive you buy questions. Use them when you need them. They never expire. And every month you get 20 free, forever.
If Cursive works, you'll need fewer questions over time, not more. We're okay with that. That's the point.
Beta pricing — every pack is doubled while we're in beta. Buy now, keep the questions forever.

What you're actually paying for
One question = one run of a Cursive tool on your work. The AI reads your page and hands you something to think with — the objection you haven't answered, the source that disagrees, the question under your question. It appears beside your page as a card you can take or ignore. It never writes a word in your document.
Every source it cites is verified against real registries before you see it — no fabricated citations, ever. Writing, drawing, journaling, and exporting your work are free and always will be: your work is yours, and it leaves with you.
