FAQ

Monthly or annual — what's the difference?

Billing is monthly by default, and you can cancel anytime — annual exists purely for the 20% discount. Every annual price above is one upfront yearly payment, not twelve monthly charges.

Is validation really free, on every plan?

Yes — validating an invoice is always free and unmetered, on every tier, forever, with no signup required. The quotas above cover only generate, convert and render.

When do the paid plans actually open?

Free Sandbox is live right now — get a key and start today. Starter, Basic, Pro, Ultra and the Document Tools plans open when CrateAPI launches; the waitlist below gets a 20% launch discount.
