## Is More AI free?

The desktop app is free to download and run. Cloud execution, supported sync and cross-device access are offered by subscription, though enabled beta features are currently free. The subscription does not include tokens: BYOK is billed by your provider; a signed-in account may separately receive a limited free pooled allowance.

## Do I need an account?

An account is optional for local desktop work with your own key or model. It is required for supported cloud execution and sync, web or mobile access, and any pooled model allowance granted to the account.

## Where is my data stored?

Desktop work has a local copy. While you are signed out it does not sync; after sign-in, enabled sync categories upload the supported data they cover. Cloud execution is controlled separately.

## Which providers are supported?

OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, Mistral, OpenRouter and other compatible APIs — including local, OpenAI-compatible endpoints.

## How is this different from Claude Desktop?

More AI starts with a free, local-first desktop app and your own API key, so you choose the models and control token spend. The optional subscription pays for cloud execution, supported sync and cross-device access; during the beta, those enabled cloud features are temporarily free.
