PRICING_AND_TIERS.md — alaivOS Canonical Pricing, Tiers & Feature Gates

Last updated: April 13, 2026 (Omega v2.7) Status: AUTHORITATIVE single source of truth. All other pricing/tier documents are historical. Supersedes: every prior pricing/tier file listed at the bottom.


1. PRICING (LOCKED)

1.1 Subscription Tiers (USD)

Tier Monthly Annual (pay 10, get 12) Annual/mo display Tagline
Starter Free Your Starting Point
Spark $3.99 $39.90/yr $3.33 The Foundation
Core $7.99 $79.90/yr $6.65 The Sweet Spot
Pro $14.99 $149.90/yr $12.49 Power User
Elite $23.99 $239.88/yr $19.99 The Full Experience

Annual model: Pay 10, get 12. No other annual discount exists. Core annual/mo display: $6.65 (truncated, not $6.66). Other tiers rounded per table above — do not change Spark's $3.33. Read pricing from: lib/config/pricing.dart — never hardcode elsewhere.

1.2 AppTier Enum (code)

7 values: starter(0), proTrial(1), spark(2), core(3), pro(4), elite(5), eliteTrial(6). FeatureGate remaps trials: proTrial → pro, eliteTrial → elite.

1.3 What Each Tier Promises

  • Starter (Free): Essential OS — manual planner, all 14 modules, no AI, text-only (no voice). Data stays on phone forever. Zero-Data-Harvesting. Interactive map + voice nav + motorcycle time FREE.
  • Spark ($3.99): Laiv starts thinking — on-device AI (Qwen 3.5 0.8B + 2B when RAM allows), 15 DDG lookups/day, Laiv Voice Standard, historic traffic patterns, family location sharing, Laiv Checkup every 6 months.
  • Core ($7.99): Laiv connects the dots — on-device up to Qwen 3.5 4B, 30 DDG/day, cross-module Morning Pulse, live traffic estimates, smart departure push alerts, Checkup every 3 months.
  • Pro ($14.99): Laiv works overnight — full local power + Night Shift, 50 DDG/day, voice commands, traffic coloring, navigate deep link, multi-stop optimization, Checkup every 2 months.
  • Elite ($23.99): Laiv never sleeps — everything in Pro + adaptive scheduling, AI health insights, deep cross-module correlations, unlimited DDG, Ghost base included (50D/20I), 1 bank connection included, Checkup every month.

2. LAIV CHECKUP (v1.0, baked into tiers — NOT credit-gated)

Overnight 3-domain analysis (Wellbeing / Planning / Financial) via Ghost relay. Dual anonymization: device strip → Gemma 4 E4B → Anthropic Batch API. Cost ~$0.012/checkup.

2.1 Cadence by Tier

Tier Checkup cadence
Starter None
Spark Every 6 months
Core Every 3 months
Pro Every 2 months
Elite Every 1 month

2.2 Trial Checkups (FREE regardless of tier)

Day Checkup Scope
Day 0 (post-onboarding) Baseline Planning-only
Day 14 (mid-trial) Mid-trial All 3 domains
Day 28 (trial end) Full All 3 domains

Between checkups: teaser hints surface pattern signals without full analysis. Capsule generation from aggregate patterns is v1.1+.


3. AI MODEL ARCHITECTURE (post V2.6/V2.7)

3.1 On-device = Qwen 3.5 only. Ghost = Gemma 4 E4B only.

Tier label CDN file Model Download Loaded RAM Min free RAM
on-device-xs laiv-xs.gguf Qwen 3.5 0.8B Q4_K_M 989 MB 2.1 GB 2.5 GB
on-device-s laiv-s.gguf Qwen 3.5 2B Q4_K_M 2.55 GB 4.1 GB 4.5 GB
on-device-m laiv-m.gguf Qwen 3.5 4B Q4_K_M 3.16 GB 5.8 GB 6.2 GB
on-device-l laiv-l.gguf Gemma 4 E2B Q4_K_M 6.67 GB 7.7 GB 8.0 GB (tablets)
on-device-xl laiv-xl.gguf Gemma 4 E4B Q4_K_M 8.95 GB 10 GB 10.5 GB (tablets)
ghost-std laiv-ghost.gguf Gemma 4 E4B Q4_K_M 8.95 GB 10 GB — (server)

Filenames are tier labels, not model names (swappable via manifest.json). AMI dynamically load/unloads ONE model at a time, never two; app backgrounded = model unloaded. No always-resident model. Cloud Gemini is DEAD — AiProvider enum has 2 values only: local, ghost.

Contradictions resolved

  1. Banking add-on price: $2.99 bundled (historical) vs $1.49 (sprint4 addendum) vs $0.99 (primary canonical) → $0.99/mo per bank wins (primary + Elite includes 1).
  2. 9B on-device: old matrices list Ultra 9B as Pro/Elite on-device → REMOVED from on-device. 9B is Ghost-only (and even Ghost moved off 9B to Gemma 4 E4B).
  3. Cloud AI column in old matrix: listed Cloud Gemini standard/Pro → DELETED. AiProvider = {local, ghost}.
  4. RevenueCat entitlements: old file had core/pro/premium and ghost_deferred/ghost_realtime → replaced by spark/core/pro/elite + credit-model Ghost products.
  5. Core annual/mo display: $6.66 (computed) vs $6.65 (J's decision) → $6.65 (truncated).
  6. Feature gate count: 107 (v2.3) → 115 (start v2.5) → 119 (end v2.5) → 120+ (end v2.7 after Checkup + AQ gates).
  7. Trial length: 21 days locked (14 Pro + 7 Elite). Extensions to 28 days only via referral.
  8. Tier differentiation "Premium" at $24.99: renamed to Elite $23.99 (Feb 25 doc obsolete).
  9. TTS naming: "Standard/Clear/Natural" (Sprint 4 addendum) → "Standard/HD/Custom" (canonical §4.11). Clear (WaveNet) and Natural (ElevenLabs) add-ons DEAD.
  10. Checkup gating: proposed credit-gated in earlier drafts → TIER-BAKED in V2.7. Credits remain Ghost-only gate.

This document is the ONLY authoritative reference for all alaivOS pricing, tiers, feature gates, modules/modes, Ghost credit model, add-ons, Group Plans, regional pricing, RevenueCat configuration, and trial/billing infrastructure. Any other document that contradicts this one is historical.
