Account setup

To get started using AI Hub, you can create or join an existing organization.

• Creating an organization lets you explore the AI Hub Commercial tier with a free trial. The Commercial tier is designed to meet your organization’s needs, whether you’re a small business or looking for production-ready solutions.

• Joining an organization lets you explore the AI Hub Commercial or Enterprise tier, depending on which tier your organization subscribes to. Both tiers offer advanced business functionality and team collaboration features.

For a comparison of available AI Hub plans and their supported features, see Instabase pricing. If you’re interested in getting started with the AI Hub Enterprise tier, contact Instabase for a demo.

Creating an organization

Creating an organization initiates a one-time trial of an AI Hub Commercial subscription. The person who starts the trial becomes the organization admin and is responsible for managing the organization and trial.

AI Hub Commercial trials include all features available with an AI Hub Commercial subscription, including shared workspaces, collaboration features, and organization-managed billing. Your trial lasts 14 days and includes $75 (USD) worth of usage. Throughout the trial, you can monitor your usage.

At any point during or after your trial, you can convert to a paid subscription.

When your trial ends, you can continue to view existing data, such as conversation history or automation app run results in your organization. However, you can’t perform any tasks that require consumption units unless you continue your subscription.
