License and AI terms
Purchase and updates
Keep using your version forever. Want newer features after the first year? Add another year of updates whenever you like. There’s no auto-renewal, and you never pay for years you skipped.
Your license does not expire, but compatibility with every future macOS or the lifetime of third-party services cannot be guaranteed. Supported macOS versions are listed with each release.
Trial and release availability
Mantle is in private preview. Pricing is announced before launch. A 14-day trial is available with an eligible release. Your trial starts when you activate it in Mantle, not when you download or sign in. No credit card or automatic charge.
Current customer releases require macOS 14 or later on a Mac with Apple silicon (M1 or newer). Intel and Windows versions are planned. Check the requirements listed with each release.
Included allowance and optional AI
Local search, First Pass, transcription, and photo editing do not spend AI credits. When enabled, Ask Mantle includes 1,000 completed queries per UTC calendar month; unused queries do not roll over. Optional cloud photo/video processing and consented additional queries use a separate Mantle AI balance and may cost extra.
Paid additional Assistant requests require separate opt-in. Adding funds is not consent to overage. Optional photo/video analysis has its own approval and estimated cost; an estimate is not a guaranteed final charge.
