## Free trial

Every new Clearcue organization starts with a **14-day free trial**. The trial gives you access to the core platform so you can evaluate Clearcue before committing to a paid plan.

**What's included in the trial:**

* 200 research credits
* Access to signal tracking, lists, audiences, and filters
* Unlimited team members

**What's not available during the trial:**

* CSV export
* Webhook and CRM integrations

A countdown of your remaining trial days appears in the sidebar. When the trial ends, you need to upgrade to a paid plan to continue using Clearcue.

## Available plans
