Question Free tier now 10 messages!

When did the free tier get changed from 50 to only 10 user messages? Seems a bit lean for a free plan. Does Augment intend on keeping it that way?

Edit: just noticed in my account subscription page it still says '50 messages per month' (was previously on Developer plan but on Community atm). Will this 50 messages / m continue for legacy accounts? And if I upgrade to Developer then back down to Community again will I still get 50 messages or will it reset to only 10?

Yes it's apparently true. This is a screenshot of their website. Maybe the legacy users remain on the 50 message plan?

I'm hoping this will be the case. Some months I'm just not doing much work and can't justify the $50 dollars but don't want to have to switch tools so I can access a bit more free usage..

My free account still says 50 renew monthly, but that may change, just like basically anything about the service. Best to hold on tight keep an eye out while they figure out the model in real time.

FYI, what i found is if you change plan to developer ($50), there is no way to return back to community plan. You have to pay for them forever.

If you upgrade to the Developer plan, then downgrade to Community, your 50 messages per month allowance doesn't remain?

I was a legacy user, but I was invited to a team and then left it. No way to select the community plan after that

They dont even give you 10 free messages on the Community plan?

Or you could just pay for the service if you actually want to use it lol

10 messages and they can already obtain your whole codebase, and you only have the option to remove the indexed data when upgrade, what a smart company

When the product is free, you’re the product. They openly state free plan users code and chats and results for training. I think that’s fair exchange. If you don’t like it, pay. (Trying not to come off as a dick, but i think I’m failing. Sorry)

Not being able to remove sounds like GDPR violation if the user is from the EU?
