Question 1

Is the Free tier really free forever?

Accepted Answer

Yes. WindOp will always have a free tier with full desktop control, 300+ AI models, file editing, terminal access, and multi-agent teams. You just need your own OpenRouter API key.

Question 2

What does 'Managed API keys' mean?

Accepted Answer

Instead of creating an OpenRouter account and managing your own API key, WindOp Pro handles all the API routing for you. No setup, no key management, no rate limit headaches.

Question 3

What happens to my data with Cloud Sync?

Accepted Answer

All conversations are encrypted end-to-end before leaving your machine. We can't read your data. Cloud sync is optional — the free tier stores everything locally.

Question 4

Can I self-host WindOp?

Accepted Answer

WindOp runs entirely on your local machine — no cloud processing required. Pro and Team tiers add managed infrastructure for convenience, but the core app is always free.

Question 5

When will Pro and Team tiers launch?

Accepted Answer

We're targeting Q3 2026 for Pro and Q4 2026 for Team. The free tier has zero telemetry — you bring your own API key, so your data never touches our servers. Pro and Team tiers use telemetry because you sign into WindOp's managed service — we monitor service health and usage to keep cloud features running smoothly. Join our Discord for early access and to help shape the features.

Question 6

How does WindOp compare to Cursor or Copilot pricing?

Accepted Answer

Cursor costs $20/mo and only controls a code editor. Copilot costs $10/mo and only does code completion. WindOp's free tier gives you full desktop control — more capability at zero cost.

Question 7

What's included in the yearly plan?

Accepted Answer

Yearly billing gives you 2 months free compared to monthly — you pay for 10 months and get 12. Your subscription must remain active to keep cloud sync, managed API keys, and other managed features backed up and running.
