Choosing a Plan

Nativeline uses a “bits” system to measure AI usage. Different plans give you different amounts of bits each month.

Understanding Bits

Bits represent your AI usage budget. They’re consumed per message:
ActionBits per Message
Simple change (color, text)10-15 bits
New feature25-40 bits
New screen30-50 bits
First app generation40-50 bits
For a detailed breakdown, see Plans & Pricing.

Consider Scale ($100+/month). You can choose your exact bit amount based on your needs, and you get priority support.

Managing Your Account

Checking Your Usage

Your remaining bits are displayed in the Nativeline app:
  • Look for the usage indicator in the toolbar
  • A warning appears when you’ve used 80% of your bits
  • Bits reset monthly on your billing date

Upgrading Your Plan

To upgrade:
  1. Click on your profile or Settings
  2. Select Plans or Subscription
  3. Choose a new plan
  4. Confirm your upgrade
Upgrades take effect immediately, and you’ll receive a prorated credit for your current plan.

Downgrading Your Plan

You can also downgrade:
  1. Go to Settings → Plans
  2. Select a lower tier plan
  3. Confirm the change
Your current plan continues until your billing date, then the new tier begins.
