The beta program

Launched, open to everyone — and still a beta program

Both halves of that sentence are true, so here's what each one means in practice:

• Launched and generally available. Anyone can sign up, free, no code or waitlist. Priced plans are live, checkout is real, and teams run their actual contracts through Pishik every day.
• Still a beta program while we polish. Some features are still maturing, and we ship refinements often — which occasionally means a rough edge. What does not change: your data is handled with the same care as it always will be — the share-link model, the audit trail, and export with no lock-in apply in full, program or no program.

While the program runs, new signups acknowledge the Beta Program Agreement as part of creating an account — a short dedicated step near the end of the signup wizard, one tick and done. That's the whole ceremony; see the agreement below.

The Beta Program Agreement

The Beta Program Agreement is the short legal document that governs the beta program itself. It sits alongside the Terms of Service and Privacy Policy and covers the beta-specific ground: the pre-release nature of maturing features, best-effort support, and how fees work during the program.

While the program is active, accepting it is part of signup — a dedicated acknowledgment step near the end of the wizard, after your account is verified and your company details are in. Existing members aren't asked again on every visit; the acknowledgment is a one-time step. When the program ends, the step retires with it.

Joined during the invite-only beta? Here's how launch works

If your workspace was created during the invite-only era, here's exactly what happened at launch — and what still applies if you haven't chosen yet.

Real notice, a real window

Every beta workspace gets a decision window of at least 30 days — announced in-app and by email to its admins — to pick the plan that fits: Team ($499/month, up to 3 seats), Business ($999/month, up to 10 seats), or Enterprise (contact us). Nothing converts silently, no card is ever charged without you choosing, and every plan carries every feature with unlimited free reviewers.

What happens if you don't choose

If the window closes with no plan selected, the workspace is paused (suspended) — never deleted. Everything stays intact, your data remains exportable for at least 60 days after a pause, and one email to contact@gopishik.com restores access so you can pick your plan. We will never delete a paused workspace's data without reasonable prior notice to its admins.

The honest fine print

The prices in effect when your window opens are the ones offered. The binding wording lives in Section 5 (Fees & billing) of the Beta Program Agreement, and the Terms of Service (§5) govern pricing generally.

A short history of the program

For the record, plainly told:

• July 2026 — private, invite-only beta. Pishik opened to its first teams behind single-use invite codes, with email verification and two-factor authentication in place from day one.
• July 2026 — open launch. Signup opened to everyone, invite codes retired, and priced plans went live with Stripe-hosted checkout.
• The Founding tier that never was. An earlier draft of the transition described a beta-exclusive $75/month "Founding" rate. It was withdrawn before pricing went live — no launch occurred while it was on offer, and no Founding subscriptions were ever sold. We record it here for transparency; it is not part of the transition.

Material changes to the Beta Program Agreement — like every legal document — are announced on the release notes page as they happen.
