# The 14-day trial

> No card upfront. What changes on day 15. What stays running for your clients either way.

Rivet's trial is **14 days, no credit card required**. You sign up, you get
a working phone line and a working waiting room, and you have two weeks to
decide whether Rivet earns a place in your practice.

## What the trial includes

Every feature in Rivet. The trial is not a stripped-down version of the
product — it's the same product paid customers run. You get:

* Your Canadian phone number (voice + SMS)
* The shared inbox and conversation threads
* Auto-reply to voicemails
* Custom greetings
* The video session room with EMDR, whiteboard, and clinical templates
* Session notes and documentation export
* Push notifications on phone and desktop
* All 71 clinical templates and measures

No feature gating. No "upgrade for X." If a thing exists in Rivet, it works
during the trial.

## What costs nothing during the trial

The trial doesn't bill — that part is obvious — but it also doesn't ask
your clients for anything. Specifically:

* **Your clients are never asked to install anything.** They tap your
  URL, grant camera permission, and they're in the session room. Same
  during the trial as after.
* **Your clients are never told you're "trialling" software.** Nothing in
  the experience surfaces your trial status to anyone but you. As far as
  your client is concerned, you have a normal professional phone line
  and a normal video room from day one.
* **Your auto-reply, your greeting, your URL** all behave exactly as they
  will after the trial ends. Whatever you set up sticks.

## The 5-day warning

When you have 5 or fewer days left in the trial, Rivet shows a friendly
warning modal once per day. It's dismissable — tap "Remind me later" and
it goes away until tomorrow — and exists only to make sure day 15 doesn't
come as a surprise.

The warning shows you the number of days left, a "Subscribe now" button
that takes you to a secure payment page, and a "Remind me later"
dismiss.

## What happens on day 15 if you haven't subscribed

The trial expires at midnight on day 14. On day 15, when you open Rivet,
you see a full-screen overlay that says **"Your trial has ended"** with a
single **Activate my account** button. Until you tap it and pay, the app
itself is gated — you can't open the inbox, you can't run sessions, you
can't change settings.

What you can't see, but matters: **your clients see no change at all.**
Voicemails that come in on day 15 still get transcribed. Auto-replies
still fire to the people who leave voicemails. Texts still queue. The
underlying line stays alive.

This is deliberate. Your clients shouldn't pay the price of your billing
status. The day-15 gate is in the app you use, not the line they hear.

## Activating your account

The **Activate my account** button on the trial-ended screen opens a
secure payment page. Fill in your card; your first month is charged;
your account flips to active within seconds; you refresh the app
and you're back in.

Pricing is **\$65 CAD per practitioner per month**, everything
included. Pay yearly and it's 10% below twelve monthly payments. Cancel
any time from your billing settings.

On native (iPhone, Android), the trial-ended screen has an "Open the web
app" button instead of an inline payment form — App Store and Play Store
rules require web-based payment to go through a web browser. The "Open
the web app" button opens `next.getrivet.ca` in your phone's browser
where the payment page works normally.

## Subscribing before day 15

You can subscribe at any point during the trial — there's a "Subscribe"
link in the billing settings, in the trial warning modal, and in the
post-expiry overlay. Subscribing during the trial doesn't shorten the
trial; you simply don't see the expiry overlay when day 15 comes.

## If you forget to subscribe and your clients start calling

Open Rivet. The trial-ended overlay appears. Tap **Activate my account**,
pay, and you're back in inside two minutes. Every voicemail and text
your clients sent while the app was gated is still there — Rivet doesn't
delete anything when the trial expires, it just gates your access.

The auto-replies that fired during the gated period mean your clients
have already heard back from "you" via the auto-text. You're not losing
anyone; you're just catching up on the inbox once you've reactivated.
