# Pricing

> Two plans: Free and Member (pricing still being determined).

Your own acts in Pond — gathering, arranging, annotating — are free forever: threads, notes, moves, connections, trails, and export never cost anything. Membership pays for Pond's labour: the agentic runs that work your library on your behalf.

### What counts as a Thread build?

A Thread build is when you ask Pond to construct a Thread for you — either from a natural language prompt or by materialising a discovered Thread. Builds are a membership feature. Manually creating an empty Thread and populating it yourself is **free forever on every plan**. See also: [Threads](/threads).

### What is Thread discovery?

Once your library reaches a sufficient size, Pond proactively identifies Threads running through your collections and surfaces them as suggestions. Discovery is a membership feature, running weekly and on demand. See also: [Pond Intelligence](/pond-intelligence).

### What are Fragment suggestions?

When you open an Artefact and ask Pond to **suggest passages**, it reads the whole document and proposes Fragments worth marking — those that connect to your Threads, and others worth holding onto beyond them. That reading is Pond's labour, so it's a membership feature. Marking passages yourself — selecting text by hand, or importing highlights you've already made — is **free forever on every plan**. See also: [Fragments](/fragments).
