Start with free delayed signals.

Yes. The delayed signal sampler is free forever; no personal AI key is required. You get up to 3 signals per day across 2 sampler signal types from the currently enabled catalog, with full reasoning, 15-minute delayed delivery, 7-day signal history, and a 5-ticker watchlist. No credit card required, no expiration. Upgrade after login for Tradewink-hosted models and planner services.

BYOK (Bring Your Own Key) is optional. It lets supported AI workflows use your own provider API key instead of the platform key. It is not required to receive the free signal sampler. You pay OpenRouter directly for model usage at their rates, giving you full cost control and provider choice. BYOK is available on every plan, including Free. Upgrade to paid tiers for Tradewink-hosted OpenRouter models and planner workflows.

Starter is $19/mo (Tradewink-hosted models + real-time delivery), Pro is $79/mo (deeper planner analysis + API access), and Elite is $149/mo (higher-capacity research planning + dedicated support). All paid plans include hosted OpenRouter model access so you do not need your own key, but BYOK remains available if you prefer to use it.

Yes. Starter includes a 7-day free trial. A card is required to begin, and you can cancel before day 7 to avoid the first charge. The trial includes Tradewink-hosted model access, real-time delivery, and planner workflows. You can test signal quality with your real watchlist. Public subscriptions are paper-only; separately approved private beta accounts may submit live broker orders.

Yes. You can downgrade or cancel from the billing page in your dashboard anytime. Billing stops after your current cycle, and hosted model access is removed when the paid period ends. You can continue using the free delayed signal sampler. BYOK remains optional.

Start on Free to build a watchlist and evaluate signal reasoning; no personal AI key is required. Upgrade to Starter ($19/mo) for Tradewink-hosted models and real-time delivery; Pro ($79/mo) adds API access and unlimited history; Elite ($149/mo) adds higher-capacity research planning and dedicated support. Public subscriptions are paper-only; separately approved private beta accounts may submit live broker orders.

See how we compare AI trading apps at /blog and the detailed 2026 roundup at /compare/ai-trading-bot-comparison. Tradewink is built for explainable signals and paper trading — start with the /learn/stock-market-simulator-guide. Scanners such as Trade Ideas surface candidates; execution bridges such as TradersPost place orders from external signals. Public subscriptions are paper-only; separately approved private beta accounts may submit live broker orders.

No setup or onboarding fee is required for any plan. The free sampler has no monthly charge. If you enable optional BYOK for supported workflows, provider limits and usage charges apply. Paid plans ($19/$79/$149) cover Tradewink-hosted OpenRouter models and planner services; any real trade you choose to place at your own broker, outside Tradewink, carries that broker’s costs.

Starter ($19/mo) includes Tradewink-hosted OpenRouter model access (no key required), real-time delivery across all currently enabled signal types, email + webhook alerts, 90-day history, and AI-assisted research planning for supported tasks. Includes a 7-day free trial. Public subscriptions are paper-only; separately approved private beta accounts may submit live broker orders.

Upgrade for real-time delivery instead of 15-minute delays, more signal types and history, email and webhook alerts, or supported research planning. Pro adds API access and unlimited history; Elite adds higher-capacity research and dedicated support. You can keep using BYOK on paid tiers if you prefer.

No. Every plan is billed monthly today — there is no annual price, no annual discount, and no multi-month commitment, so you can cancel any month without an early-termination cost. If you need annual invoicing or several seats, email support@tradewink.com and we will look at it case by case; we would rather tell you that up front than list a plan we do not actually sell.

There is no automatic money-back guarantee. What exists is a refund request: from the billing page in your dashboard you can cancel, request a refund, or both. That opens a support ticket that a human reviews, and Stripe processes the refund if it is approved. Cancelling on its own stops future billing at the end of the current cycle.

Our own research measured out-of-sample directional accuracy on daily bars at roughly 50-52% — near chance — and found that confidence gating fails out-of-sample. That is why every entry signal ships with an entry, stop, and target instead of a bare prediction (exit alerts, which close an earlier signal, carry no stop or target): the product is disciplined risk management, not clairvoyance. We publish the full numbers, their provenance, and the strategies we killed on evidence at tradewink.com/ai-limitations/methodology.
