I cancelled my paid plan months ago and they have continued to charge me every month.

On 1/28/25 I saw a bank charge for $432 from Copy.AI. Since I had cancelled I assumed this would be an easy fix. It wasn't.

2

Team Plan Premium

Team pricing is significantly higher than individual plans, with users reporting costs double that of competing platforms like ChatGPT for equivalent functionality.

Copy AI price is double what others are charging, and when we compare the copy we get, it is much better quality writing at half the price with Chat GPT vs Copy Ai. Unfortunately, I contacted them 15 days too late and I am stuck in a 1-year contract at $1600+ with Copy AI for my team.

No Post-Trial Refunds

critical support

Extremely restrictive 5-day refund policy means customers locked into annual contracts have no recourse even if the service stops working or doesn't meet needs.

Copy AI's refund policy is crazy! You get 5 days refund time and after that, no matter what length you have paid for, even if you have 11.5 months left, you are stuck.

Example: True Cost for 25 Users

License (25 × $29 × 12) $8,700/yr
Automatic Renewal Charges +$432-$1,600
Team Plan Premium +$1,600+
No Post-Trial Refunds +100% of annual contract
Estimated Year 1 Total ~$625
That's roughly 0.1× the advertised license price. The median Copy.ai contract is $25,000/yr across 7 Vendr purchases.
