Frequently asked questions
What happens after the 7-day free trial?+
Your selected paid plan starts automatically after the 7-day free trial, and your payment method is charged. Cancel before the trial ends to avoid the charge. Your trial end date, plan price, billing period and usage allowance are shown during sign-up.
Can I switch plans later?+
Yes. You can upgrade or downgrade as your store count, workflow volume, and team needs change.
What counts as a Business group?+
A Business group is an operating environment within your workspace, used to organize the relevant business context and connections. Business group limits and store connection limits are separate; compare both rows for your selected tier.
Do you offer annual billing?+
Yes. Choose Monthly or Yearly to see the corresponding prices. Yearly prices are rounded monthly equivalents; the total charged for the year is shown separately. Your selected billing period also applies to the feature comparison table.
What payment methods do you accept?+
We accept major credit cards. Larger plans can also coordinate payment terms with sales.
Is my data secure?+
Bustly uses encrypted connections, role-based access, read-only defaults where supported, and an audit trail for operator actions.
What AI models does Bustly use?+
Bustly routes work across frontier models from OpenAI, Anthropic, xAI, and Google based on the task.
How do credit top-ups work?+
One-time purchases in USD. Purchased credits are valid for one year from purchase.
Use a representative task to check actual credit consumption. Task size, tools, retries and content generation can change usage; estimated task counts are not a delivery guarantee.

How the working relationship differs
What matters to you
Traditional agency
Bustly AI Brain for Commerce
What happens when work grows?
Work outside the contract may need a new quote, more hours or a new schedule. Some ad fees grow with media spend.
Reuse proven workflows and add tasks. Additional work is billed through your plan and usage.
Briefing and chasing progress
Agree requirements, revisions and schedules with your contact. Internal coordination and review still take time.
Brief tasks directly. Requirements, results and open decisions stay together, reducing scattered handoffs.
What actually got done?
Reports, shared documents and account records show progress, with detail depending on the engagement.
Inspect the source, specific changes, completed results and unresolved items for each task.
Who makes important decisions?
Work follows the access and approval process agreed by both parties.
You set access and operating scope, and keep important decisions with your team.
What happens when a contact changes?
Continuity depends on documentation, asset ownership and the handover process.
Confirmed brand rules, past decisions and reusable workflows remain in the workspace for later tasks.
This compares working arrangements. Specialist agencies can also offer transparent records, client-owned accounts and thorough handovers. Check the terms of each engagement.
Where to start with Bustly
Try product listings, ad checks and authorized changes, email preparation or business reviews. Establish what Bustly can handle while retaining specialist agencies for brand strategy, complex creative work and other expertise.

Difference in hours requiredh / month
Original arrangement: total cost equivalent
With Bustly: total cost equivalent
Cost-equivalent difference
Time capacity is not cash saved, and avoided planned spending is an estimate. Count planned staff cost through hours × loaded hourly cost; do not add the same salary again under agency fees. Treat savings as realized only when payroll or external spend actually decreases. Include one-off setup costs in your decision.
Original arrangement = original hours × hourly cost + original agency fees. With Bustly = work/review hours × hourly cost + retained agency fees + Bustly cost.
Ad spend and third-party software fees that stay the same on both sides are not savings. If they differ, include that difference separately alongside this estimate.
Work scope and responsibilities
START WITH THE WORK
Define the work first. Then choose your plan.
Start with one job you would do yourself, hire for or hand to an agency. Agree on its scope and how you will check completion, then measure the usage on a representative task.
01
SHOPIFY
Get a batch of new products live.
Bustly handles
Prepare listing content, create or update the agreed products, and publish within the permissions you grant.
You provide & decide
Product facts, images, prices and variants; brand requirements and approval to publish.
Check the result
Open the Shopify records and storefront pages. Check the agreed products, content and publication status; see anything still waiting on information.
02
SHOPIFY + GOOGLE ADS
Handle ads pointing to out-of-stock products.
Bustly handles
Check stock against matching ads, propose changes and apply supported changes within your confirmed scope.
You provide & decide
Connected accounts, reliable product-to-ad matches and permission for the specific changes.
Check the result
Check each ad’s resulting platform status. See what changed, what stayed live and any unmatched items that still need review.
The next run starts with what already worked.
Keep a proven workflow and the business rules behind it. Reuse them for the next batch or check, with the current data and permissions verified again.
What the plan pays for
Plans provide access, seats, connections and credits. They do not promise a fixed number of completed jobs. Use one representative task to measure usage and your review time before estimating ongoing cost.
See what Bustly can do for your business.
Start with a defined task and a clear finish line.
