Response fields

Field	Type	Description
plans	object	Map of available plans with pricing and features
currentPlan	string	User’s current plan. One of free, solo, collective, label, network, underground, starter, pro, or scale. Users who subscribed via the Stripe checkout flow have plans like solo, collective, label, or network.

byokEnabled	boolean	Whether BYOK mode is active

The currentPlan value is set by the Stripe webhook when a checkout completes. Plans created through the primary checkout flow (/api/stripe/checkout) use solo, collective, label, or network. The billing dashboard displays these with their plan names: solo appears as “Solo”, collective as “Collective”, and label as “Label”.

Stripe checkout

GET /api/stripe/checkout

Redirects to a Stripe checkout session for subscribing to a plan. This endpoint uses the solo, collective, label, and network plan names with GBP pricing. Admin users (configured via ADMIN_EMAILS) bypass Stripe and are redirected directly to the onboarding page.

The Stripe checkout plans (solo, collective, label, network) use different identifiers and GBP pricing from the billing API plans (starter, pro, scale with USD pricing). The checkout plans are the primary subscription path for agent provisioning. The billing dashboard displays checkout plan IDs with their plan names: solo as “Solo”, collective as “Collective”, and label as “Label”.

Query parameters

Parameter	Type	Required	Description
plan	string	Yes	Plan to subscribe to: solo, collective, label, or network

Checkout plan pricing

Plan	Price (GBP)
solo	£29/mo
collective	£69/mo
label	£149/mo
network	£499/mo

Response

On success, redirects (303) to the Stripe checkout URL. On error, redirects to the pricing page with an error query parameter.

Redirect	Description
Stripe checkout URL	Successful session creation
/pricing?error=invalid_plan	Unrecognized plan name
/pricing?error=stripe_not_configured	Stripe secret key not set
/pricing?error=checkout_failed	Stripe API error
/onboard?plan=...&paid=1&admin=1	Admin bypass (no payment required)

Subscription deploy

POST /api/subscriptions/deploy

Records a subscription-to-plan mapping so the next agent deployment uses the correct resource tier. This endpoint is called by the Stripe webhook after a checkout completes.

This is a backend-only endpoint that requires bearer token (API key) authentication.

Request body

Field	Type	Required	Description
tier	string	Yes	Plan tier. One of: solo, collective, label, network, underground, starter, pro, scale, enterprise, white_glove
customerId	string	Conditional	Customer identifier. Either customerId or stripeCustomerId must be provided.
