Use when someone asks what QuantConnect costs or which purchase they need: plan tiers and seats (Free, Quant Researcher, Team, Trading Firm, Institution), the recommended packs, backtesting / research / live trading / agent node prices, support seats, Object Store capacity, QCC credit, monthly vs annual billing, adding or removing nodes mid-cycle, and dataset purchases: what is free in the cloud, Cloud Access subscriptions to alternative data, and downloading data for local LEAN with `lean data download` (by ticker in QCC or in bulk, prerequisites such as the Security Masters, cost estimates). Triggers: "how much is", "price of", "cheapest plan for", "do I need to buy data to backtest", "cost to download a year of SPY minute data". Skip for refunds, invoices, cancellations and account changes, which support handles.

CesarjoquinSkillpaywalls
When the user wants to create or optimize in-app paywalls, upgrade screens, upsell modals, or feature gates. Also use when the user mentions "paywall," "upgrade screen," "upgrade modal," "upsell," "feature gate," "convert free to paid," "freemium conversion," "trial expiration screen," "limit reached screen," "plan upgrade prompt," "in-app pricing," "free users won't upgrade," "trial to paid conversion," or "how do I get users to pay." Use this for any in-product moment where you're asking users to upgrade. Distinct from public pricing pages (see cro) — this focuses on in-product upgrade moments where the user has already experienced value. For pricing decisions, see pricing.

coreyhaines31Skillmarketing-council
When the user wants multiple expert perspectives on a marketing question — a simulated board of advisors staffed by legendary marketers (Seth Godin, David Ogilvy, Eugene Schwartz, April Dunford, Rory Sutherland, Alex Hormozi, Byron Sharp, and more). Also use when the user mentions 'marketing council,' 'board of advisors,' 'advisory board,' 'what would Seth Godin say,' 'what would Ogilvy think,' 'channel Hormozi,' 'get multiple perspectives,' 'debate this,' 'have the council review,' 'marketing mentors,' or asks how a famous marketer would approach their problem. The council gives each advisor's take through their documented frameworks, surfaces where they disagree, and synthesizes a recommendation. For executing the winning direction, hand off to positioning, offers, copywriting, ads, or the relevant skill.

How matches are found. Word for word: the exact same text. Edited: shares passages with this file (“99% same” means 99% of its five-word phrases also appear here; 10% or more counts). Their own version: similar meaning, or, weakest, the same name. We can’t tell which project had it first. Projects are counted among the 200 most-starred candidates, and mentions are links to the repository we found, up to 50 per site, so both counts are a floor.

Pricing
Answer with the real list price, for the right tier, plus the one rule that makes the number make sense.
| File | Holds |
| references/plan-prices.md | Every seat, pack, node, support seat, storage plan and module; data packages sold at checkout, priced for all four tiers. Generated from quantconnect.com/pricing. |
| references/price-book.md | Every dataset's SKUs (Cloud Access, bulk packages) and the per-file QCC prices lean data download charges, priced for all four tiers. Generated from the API. |
| references/plans.md | How a bill is built, what each tier includes, nodes, QCC, support seats, Object Store, discounts. |
| references/datasets.md | Free vs Cloud Access vs Download, prerequisites, what one file covers, how to estimate a download, bulk totals. |
| references/docs.md | Pages to link. |
Answer
- Know the tier. Data packages cost more on higher tiers, node caps and features differ, and a Free organization must upgrade before it can buy anything. Use the tier the person has; when it is unknown, quote the Quant Researcher price and say it is the lowest tier's, or show all tiers when the difference matters.
- The number, its unit and its terms: "$14 a month, or $144 a year billed annually", "5 QCC ($0.05) per file", "$11,760 for the first year of history, then $600 a year for updates".
- Cloud first. Market data is free in the cloud on every tier. Someone about to pay for data to backtest in the cloud does not need to; say so before any download price.
- Show the arithmetic of an estimate in one line (files x QCC per file), with a range where data types are optional (trade only to all types), the prerequisite subscriptions and the ongoing cost. The CLI prints the exact cost before it charges.
- The cheapest way to do X is the smallest set of lines that does it. Live trading through an external brokerage: Quant Researcher seat $10 + L-MICRO $24 = $34 a month.
- Dataset purchases are not refundable: say so when someone is about to buy data.
- Link the page with more detail from
docs.md; a complete answer needs none. - The generated files carry a
Generateddate. When it is old, or the person quotes a different price, check quantconnect.com/pricing or the dataset's pricing tab.
Don't
- Promise a discount, coupon, trial, refund, credit or custom price. Point to support.
- Answer tax or VAT questions, or interpret the data licence beyond its documented terms.
- Say support seats or QCC pay for AI usage. Neither does.
- Offer a way to get cloud data out of the platform. A Download licence is the only route to local data.
