Choose your plan inside the app
A run is one full attempt at a problem: the engine plans, solves, checks its own answer and improves it over several rounds until it has one it can defend. Every plan is the desktop app, running on your own machine. You pick a plan and set up billing inside the app after you sign in. The browser version is a free way to try ThinkerWave before you install it. BYOK is unlimited because you pay your model provider directly; the managed plans bundle the models with a monthly run budget so there is no key to manage.
