Alma Pro is the right tier for active users who want the best reasoning available across every conversation, plus video and music generation, without juggling separate subscriptions. One account, one monthly budget, every capability.
Starter ($14/mo) is for steady, low-volume use with Haiku and Sonnet only. Pro ($29/mo) unlocks Opus reasoning, video and music in addition. Max ($99/mo) adds the full developer surface (REST API, VSCode extension, MCP server, JavaScript SDK, BYOK) and the largest monthly allowance. Pro is the right pick when you want premium reasoning and creative tools but do not need programmatic API access.
If you reach your monthly allowance, you can buy a one-time top-up that only activates after the monthly pool is empty. Top-up balance carries over for 12 months and applies on any plan. Idle top-ups never consume themselves. Packs: $10 → $10, $30 → $33, $60 → $70, $100 → $120 balance.
Annual subscription discounts the price to two months free per year. For Pro that is $290/year vs $348 month-to-month. Refund policy is in Refund Policy; no prorated refund for cancellations mid-year (per industry standard for digital services).
