Add-ons (any paid plan)
Need a single feature without jumping the next tier? Add it on:
- Remove Dante branding ($50 / month). Hides the "Powered by Dante" badge in the widget. Available on Starter and Advanced. Bundled into Pro at no extra cost.
- Human Handover ($50 / month). Live takeover from your team inbox the moment the AI agent can't help. Available on Starter and Advanced. Bundled into Pro.
- Extra AI agent ($20 / month each). Add agents for separate use cases (one for support, one for sales). Each agent gets its own widget key, knowledge index, and inbox.
- Extra credits ($20 / 1,000 credits). Top up when traffic spikes mid-month. No expiry.
Advanced plus both $50 add-ons equals $220 a month. Pro at $400 includes both add-ons natively plus the full white-label bundle. If you'd buy both add-ons every month, Pro is often the better deal.
How to upgrade
Click your account avatar (top right) and choose Plans. Pick a tier and a billing interval (monthly or yearly), then click the plan's button to open Stripe checkout. Your new plan and its credits go live once the payment confirms.
On a Free workspace there is also an Upgrade button pinned at the bottom of the left sidebar, on both your dashboard and any agent. It is available any time you are outside the first-agent setup wizard, so you can jump to the Plans page in one click whenever you are ready, right inside the app without opening a new browser tab. The button is hidden only while you are actively setting up your first AI agent, and paid plans see a Manage subscription link there instead.
Wherever you see an upgrade prompt inside the product (a feature that needs a higher tier, a credit warning, a top-up button), it brings you to this Plans page first so you can review every tier and price before anything is charged. Nothing starts checkout except the button on the plan or add-on you choose. Clicking anywhere else on a plan card simply highlights it and moves focus to its button. Credit top-up prompts open the Extra credits add-on window on the same page, where you confirm the quantity before checkout.
The plans screen after your first AI agent replies
When you finish the first-agent setup wizard and choose what to do next, Dante AI shows a full-screen plans view before taking you there. It lists the three paid tiers with the same Monthly and Yearly switch as the Plans page, so you can compare them at the moment your agent starts working. Choosing a tier opens Stripe checkout directly.
This screen never locks you in. Close it with the X in the top right, the Or continue for free link at the bottom, or the Escape key. Those three work on every screen size. On a wide desktop window, where the panel does not fill the whole width, clicking the empty space beside it closes the screen too. However you close it, you land on the screen you were originally heading to, so you keep your place and stay on Free.
Changed your mind mid-checkout?
No problem. If you use the Back button on the Stripe checkout page, you return to the Plans page with your selection saved. A banner offers to resume checkout for the same plan and billing interval in one click, or you can review what's included before deciding. Nothing is charged unless you complete the payment step on Stripe.
How to downgrade or cancel
Same page. Downgrades take effect at the end of the current billing period and you keep paid features until then. Cancelling moves you to Free on next renewal. No data is deleted.
Common pricing questions
The pricing page now answers the most common pricing questions in one place: whether there is a free plan, how credits work, which AI models each tier unlocks, using your own OpenAI API key, and how billing and cancellation work. It opens on monthly prices, and the Monthly and Yearly switch at the top swaps every plan to its annual rate, so you can compare both before you sign up. Whichever you pick carries through to checkout. For the deeper credit mechanics, see Understanding credits.
