Premium license price increase (2026) and AI queries
The cost of a premium license increased on 1 January 2026, and this was the
first price increase in two years.

But this price increase is more
than offset by the fact that users now get 100 AI queries each month as part of
the premium license. When the
AI features were first announced in 2025, it cost $5.00 for 150-170 AI
queries -- depending on which Large Language Models (LLMs) were used.
If a user does 100 AI queries per
month, that would be about $3.50 (if we were still charging for individual
queries). For a one year license, that would be about $42.00 for these AI
queries. But the cost of a premium license has only increased by $5.00 for that
same period, which is much less expensive.
So overall, for someone who is using the new AI features even just occasionally,
it is much less expensive to have these as part of the price of a
premium license.
