Plans & Limits

Agile Flights has three plan tiers - Free, Team, and Enterprise. Each tier determines how many teams, active flights, members, and integrations your organisation can use. Limits are enforced at both the database and UI layers, so you'll always know where you stand before hitting a wall.

Plan Tiers

Every organisation starts on the Free plan. You can upgrade at any time from your billing settings. Here's what each tier includes:

What Counts as an Active Flight

Only flights in active or emergency status count toward your plan's active flight limit. Flights in takeoff, landed, or archived status do not count. This means you can plan as many upcoming flights as you want and keep your full flight history without worrying about limits - only the flights currently in the air matter.

In practical terms: if you're on the Free plan with a limit of 5 active flights per team, you can have 3 active flights and 2 in emergency and you'll be at your limit. Land one of those flights and you're free to launch another.

What Happens When You Reach a Limit

Agile Flights shows you where you stand before you hit a wall. The dashboard header displays an "X/Y in flight" badge next to the New Flight button. This badge changes colour as you approach your limit:

• Default (grey) - you're well within your limit.
• Amber - you've used 80% or more of your active flight slots. Time to think about landing some flights or upgrading.
• Red - you've hit your limit. The New Flight button is disabled and you won't be able to activate new flights until you land or archive existing ones.

When you're at your flight limit, the New Flight button on the dashboard is disabled. An "Upgrade" link appears next to it, pointing to your billing settings where you can switch to a higher tier.

Team creation works the same way. If your organisation has reached its team limit, the "Create New Team" option in the team switcher is disabled and an upgrade link is shown instead.

These limits are also enforced at the database level. Even if the UI were bypassed, the database triggers would block the operation and return an error. This ensures limits are always respected regardless of how the request originates.

The Advisory Banner

When any team has 8 or more active flights - regardless of plan tier - the dashboard shows an advisory banner recommending that you consider splitting work across teams. This isn't a hard limit. It's a nudge based on the principle that too many concurrent flights dilute team focus.

The advisory banner is dismissable. Click the X and it stays hidden for the rest of your browser session. It will reappear if you open a new session and still have 8 or more active flights. The intent is to keep the signal visible without being annoying - dismiss it once and get back to work.

How to Upgrade

To change your plan, go to your organisation's billing settings. Organisation owners can access this from the settings menu. Select the plan that fits your team's needs and the new limits take effect immediately.

If you're not sure which plan is right, the rule of thumb is simple: if you need more than one team or more than 5 concurrent flights, go with Team. If you need unlimited flights and team members, or Enterprise-only features like domain verification and SSO enforcement, go with Enterprise. You can always start with Free and upgrade when you hit a limit - there's no penalty for starting small.
