North Metric prices for output, not analytics. The dashboard with 30+ metrics is free forever. Pro adds three AI agents that find at least 12.6% of your MRR in 14 days, or your first month is free. Scale adds the remaining seven agents plus portfolio features for teams and operators.

## The 12.6% MRR guarantee
During your 14-day Pro trial, the three Pro agents — Churn Radar, Payment Recovery, and Upgrade Finder — read your Stripe data daily and price every risk and opportunity in dollars. If those findings don't add up to at least 12.6% of your current MRR, the trial extends automatically. If they still haven't surfaced 12.6% after the extension, your first month of Pro is free.

## What counts toward 12.6%
The sum of all Pro agent findings during the trial:
- At-risk customer MRR identified by Churn Radar
- Recoverable failed-payment MRR and expiring-card MRR identified by Payment Recovery
- Expected upgrade MRR identified by Upgrade Finder (candidate plan upside × historical conversion rate)

The total is divided by your MRR at trial start.

## Frequently asked questions
Is the free plan really free forever?
Yes. The dashboard, metrics, sharing, and driver breakdowns have no time limit and no credit card requirement.

Does the Pro trial require a credit card?
No. The 14-day Pro trial requires only your email and a Stripe connection.

What happens at the end of the trial?
You upgrade to Pro at $79/mo, or you auto-downgrade to Free. No automatic charging.

Can I cancel anytime?
Yes. Cancel in one click. Access continues through the end of the current billing month, with no refund for the remaining days.

Can I start the Pro trial later?
Yes. You can start the 14-day Pro trial anytime from inside the app, even after months on Free.

What's the difference between Pro and Scale?
Pro runs three agents (one per revenue domain). Scale runs all ten agents and adds custom metrics, portfolio monitoring, unlimited seats, multi-Stripe support, API access, custom reports, and dedicated support.

What data does North Metric access from Stripe?
Read-only: subscriptions, invoices, charges, customers, and lifecycle events. Never payment methods or bank details.

Should I just build this myself instead?
A full Stripe analytics pipeline takes 15–27 weeks and roughly $182K in year one to build correctly — versus $79/mo for Pro. See /build-vs-buy for the full build-versus-buy breakdown.
