One plan. Priced in bytes.
Zinn is an Experimental kanban CLI for you and your agents.
It is MIT licensed, so there is no monetary charge. You don't have to create an account, or find a seat for you and your team to sit on. You still pay, the way you pay for all free software: in download, disk, memory, time, output, electricity and your internet bill. This page is the bill.

Frequently asked questions
Can I cancel anytime?
Yes.
npm uninstall -g @zinn-dev/cliUninstalling leaves your data in place, in the Zinn directory.
Is there a free trial?
You are free to try, and encouraged to keep using it.
Do you offer annual billing?
Billing happens when you update, and you choose when.
npm i -g @zinn-dev/cli@latestWhat are the overage charges?
Commands cost more as a project grows. Listing 10,000 tasks takes 3.70 seconds and 188 MB. The calculator above has the other sizes.
Do you offer refunds?
You can uninstall and your lost disk bytes come back. Memory already comes back every time a command exits. The electricity does not come back.
Does it cost anything when I am not using it?
No. Zinn runs only when you call it. No background process, no memory, no writes.
Enterprise
Same plan. Same bytes.
