Pricing
Searches are free. Pro is the watch.
Every live search costs real money (the otter reads the booking sites for your dates, never yesterday's prices), so the free tiers are paced rather than cut. Pro pays for the part that runs every day without you.

On every plan: picks are ranked by your criteria, never by commission; every number carries the time it was read; the otter never books or cancels anything itself. Some booking links earn us a commission at no cost to you, which is what pays for the free searches.
The 30 free days: a card goes on file, Stripe emails you before the first charge, and the account page cancels in one click. An address gets the free days once.
