Hi there, I'm sorry your rain jacket hasn't arrived yet. Standard delivery usually takes 3 to 5 business days, so your order is running late, and I understand how frustrating that is. Could you reply with your order number? I'll check the tracking details with our carrier and let you know exactly where your package is and when to expect it. If your order ends up more than 7 business days past its expected delivery date, you'll get free express shipping on your next order. Thanks for your patience, and I'll get back to you as soon as I have an update. Sam, Northwind support

Claude Opus 5.5 and GPT-6 Sol on every plan
Whether the one-time free trial reaches each model, then each paid plan's messages on it.
| Plan | Price | Claude Opus 5.5 | GPT-6 Sol |
|---|---|---|---|
| Free | $0 | Not in the trial | Not in the trial |
| Plus | $10 a month | Up to 31 a month | Up to 62 a month |

| Studio | $200 a month | Up to 1,000 a month | Up to 2,000 a month |
Prices don't include tax, which is added where it applies and shown before you pay. A paid plan's month is one allowance shared by every model, so each monthly count is the most you get if all of it goes to that model. It renews each billing period; everyday models refill daily at 00:00 UTC. Long chats count more per reply. How pricing works.
Every limit is published. Paid plans also have a monthly fair-use limit on AI cost: Plus $3.75, Pro $7.50, Max $20, Ultra $42, Studio $85. Using every message on your plan at typical sizes stays under it; very large messages and heavy research use it faster. Every limit, explained.
