Limits worth knowing in Nebula

  • There is no free plan: every member, the owner included, needs a $25 seat once the 7-day trial ends.
  • No subscription adds credits each month. Tasks by Nebula's own agents and cloud-device time draw on Nebula Credits you top up.
  • A subscription bought through the App Store or Google Play covers one seat; adding teammates means moving billing to a card on the web.
  • The docs point users to the desktop, mobile and command-line apps rather than a browser version, and say the Windows installer is not yet code-signed.
