Pricing FAQ

Is PolySim really free?
Yes — all 390+ solvers run locally in your browser, free forever. You only pay for Pro features (saves, data import, exports, AI) or cloud compute.
Do I have to subscribe?
No. You can unlock any single solver for $2 or a full multi-solver workflow for $5 — one-time, no subscription. Pro just unlocks everything at once.
What's the difference between Pro and Team?
Pro is for one person. Team adds a shared workspace, pooled compute, admin controls, and seats for a lab, class, or firm.
Do students and educators get a discount?
Local use is free for everyone. Verified students and classrooms get additional discounts — just reach out.
Can I cancel anytime?
Yes. Cancel from your dashboard anytime; access continues to the end of the billing period.
How does this compare to MATLAB or COMSOL?
MATLAB toolboxes and COMSOL modules run into the thousands per year and need installs and licenses. PolySim starts free, runs in any browser, and tops out at flat, transparent plans.
