Conversation
Aaron ratified a free-for-three-months push; the public pricing copy still promised 30 days in six places and would have contradicted the offer the moment it went live. Rewrote every user-facing trial-length claim on /pricing/: the page description (feeds the meta + og description), the trial banner, the four plan-card lines, and the closing CTA. Also updated the style comment describing the framing so it doesn't lie to the next reader. Deliberately untouched: the dated blog posts (historical record — the July 7 post's "one month free" was true when published) and terms.njk's two "30 days" (termination-notice and price-change-notice windows — a different 30 entirely).

⛔ HOLD MERGE until the cloud 90-day trial change is deployed
This PR makes the site promise three months free. Merging it before the cloud-side 90-day trial change is live means the site advertises something the product doesn't yet do. Land the cloud change first, verify it on prod, then merge this.
Why
Aaron ratified a free-for-three-months push. The public pricing copy still promised 30 days in six places and would have contradicted the offer the moment it went live.
What changed —
pricing.njkonlydescriptionfrontmatter)Line 4 is the one with reach beyond the page — it feeds both
<meta name="description">and<meta property="og:description">, so the 30-day claim was riding in link previews too.Voice notes: plain and warm, no marketing puff — "Three months free, no card" over "3-month FREE trial!". CSS class names (
.trial-banner,.plan-trial) are untouched; "during the trial" on lines 152/251 still reads true and needed no churn.Swept and deliberately left alone
terms.njk:36— "at least 30 days to export your data" after account termination. A data-export window, not a trial.terms.njk:41— "we'll tell you at least 30 days before" a price change. Price-change notice, not a trial.blog/2026-07-07-parachute-cloud-is-open.md(subtitle, description, step 1) — "One month free, no credit card." Dated post; it was true when published. Historical record, left as-is.design/*.md— internal design notes (14-day trial sketches, 30-day PITR/soft-delete, grace-period constants). Not user-facing.business-plan.html— unlisted, noindex, no trial-length claim (only "trial → paid conversion rate" as a metric).archive/**— frozen snapshots, excluded from the 11ty build by design.Everything else on the site was checked and carries no trial-length claim at all: the homepage
landing-preview.htmlpricing block ("Free · open source" / "From $1/mo", no duration) and its meta/og descriptions,pitch.njk's pricing slide,/start(install.njk),vault.njk,agents.njk,modules.njk,docs.njk,roadmap.njk,since-launch.njk,multi-user.njk,git-backup.njk,scripting.njk,privacy.njk,surfaces.md, all sixguides/*.md,_includes/base.njk(nav + footer CTAs), andsubscribe/thanks.njk. Their "free" mentions are all about self-host-free-forever, GitHub's free tier, or free GitHub Pages hosting.Verification
bun run build— clean, no errors, 59 files written (v3.1.2). Rendered_site/pricing/index.htmlconfirmed: 4 × "Three months free, no card", the banner, the CTA line, and bothdescription+og:descriptioncarrying the new copy. Zero "30 day"/"30-day" left anywhere in the built output outside_site/terms/(the two intentional non-trial windows),blog/,design/, andarchive/.No version bump: this repo is a
private: truestatic site, nothing publishes to npm.Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 noreply@anthropic.com
