Questions

Before you pay anything.

Is MacStats Pro a subscription?

No. Pro is a one-time payment for your major version. There is no recurring fee, and the free tier does not expire.

How many AI explanations do I get?

Up to 500 per month on every Pro plan. That limit is generous for normal use: it is there to stop abuse, not to meter ordinary curiosity. Monitoring itself is unlimited and does not use the allowance.

How many Macs does a licence cover?

Pro Personal covers 2 Macs. Family covers up to 5. The free tier has no licence at all, so you can run it on as many Macs as you like.

What happens when a new major version is released?

You keep the version you bought, and it keeps working. Updates within that major version are included.

Can I get a refund?

Yes. There is a 14-day money-back guarantee. If MacStats does not help you understand your Mac better, email support and we will refund you.
