Subscription Options
Paddle — Yearly
Pay once per year by credit or debit card via Paddle’s secure checkout. Your subscription renews automatically each year. You can update your payment method or cancel at any time through the Paddle customer portal.
Paddle — Lifetime
A single one-time payment grants you PRO access forever — no renewals, no future charges. This is the most cost-effective option if you plan to use Strautomator long-term.
GitHub Sponsors — Monthly
Sponsor the Strautomator project on GitHub with a monthly contribution. PRO access is activated automatically when your sponsorship is recognised. Manage or cancel directly in your GitHub Sponsors settings.
Free Plan
No payment required. Includes up to 3 automations, 2 GearWear configs, 30-day history, and personal records for rides and runs. Upgrade at any time to remove all limits.
