· FAQ

Before you pick a tier.

Yes. New communities need to start safely, and we want to be the thing that keeps them from becoming victims of their own success. The free tier covers a population of roughly 100 to 250 with basic Trust & Safety and light health monitoring. The free tier means as much to our core mission as it does to our marketing.

Every paid plan carries a 15-day money-back guarantee, and you can cancel anytime with no hassles and no retention calls within that period. You'll always have access to the free tier features.

The Seismologist tier is ideal for larger organizations that need to monitor multiple communities or have more complex Trust & Safety requirements. It provides additional features and support for managing and analyzing data across different teams and departments, or different communities.

On-prem is an arrangement where our sensors run on hardware that you provide. You continue to have access to the same app, support and benefits; what changes is where and how data is collected. This allows us to conform to strict platform requirements, and offer customized solutions. Contact us to discuss your location and sensor needs.

Anyone looking to build Foreshock into their own product or process. Scientists, social workers, developers, and researchers can benefit from the sharing that tier makes possible. If you're a large company considering Foreshock, this is the place to start.
