Step 01
Equivalent is not total
“$6 per month” can mean $71.96 charged today for a year. Both numbers can be true; only one tells you the immediate charge.
Step 02
Media may have a second meter
Images, video, voice and regenerations may consume credits even when chat is described as unlimited. Look for the unit cost and refill price.
Step 03
Promotions need an exit plan
A first-subscription discount says nothing about renewal. Note the next date, renewal total and cancellation route before the trial glow takes over.
The practical next move
A guide becomes useful when it changes a decision. Choose one small test, record what happened, and compare the result with the product’s promise. Do not reward a vague answer with a longer subscription.
