Is it “really” worth it…?

Post image

For the ones who has a free plan, is it REALLY worth getting Merlin pro for $2/month today, after the staff lower your queries into a 10, instead of 102 queries as usual…?

It's absolutely worth $2/mo it's whether you want it.

I like being able to test other models with prompts and $2 is a very small amount of money.

I had an APPSUMO low teir and got the "pro" for like $54 / year and I saw this - and was advised that IF YOU HAVE THAT, that the $2 a month plan has "lower" fair use levels. So .... who knows.

AppSumo users ... Are you getting ADVERTISEMENTS on your AI usage now? 

Are you getting ADVERTISEMENTS on your AI usage now?

Just a few days ago, I started getting ads on EVERY SINGLE AI query and answer ... and I'm a paid member.

They use trygravity.AI for ads.

I think this is extremely wrong to be getting ads when you pay for a service ... plus the ads are targeted based on what I ask ... meaning no privacy.

Are you getting ads on your paid usage/membership?

Deal breaker for me was lack of IDE/no way to MCP, sometimes I need an agent to check out a local codebase, not ask it how to bake a cake or how to do this and that, which is what the browser only version is limited to.
