Getting started

Create your first plori agent in the browser with no signup, then sign up to keep it. What the trial includes and what changes when you register.

plori gives your AI agent its own computer: a persistent disk, real CLI tools, and memory that survives between conversations. This guide takes you from nothing to a working agent, with no signup required for the first step.

Try an agent with no signup

Go to plori.ai/agent. That single click creates a trial agent on its own computer and opens a terminal-style chat with it. There is no form, no email, no card.

The free trial includes:

  • 100 credits to spend (a typical task costs tens of credits, a quick question a few)
  • 128 MB of disk for the agent's files
  • 1 agent, kept for 7 days

Ask it for something real: research a topic and write up the findings, fetch and analyze a file, scaffold a small project. The agent works in its own shell, installs what it needs, and saves its output to its disk, so you can come back tomorrow and pick up where it left off.

Sign up to keep it

When you sign in with your email (a 6-digit code, no password, no card), your trial agent comes with you: the agent, its conversations, and the files on its disk all merge into your account. Signing up puts you on the Free plan:

  • 500 credits per month and a one-time 5,000-credit welcome
  • 1 GB account disk that your agents draw from
  • Cost-efficient models that stretch your credits furthest

Paid plans add more agents, concurrent runs, bigger disks, and every frontier model. See pricing for the full ladder.

Awake and asleep

A plori agent has two states, and they map directly to what you pay:

  • Awake: the agent's computer is running and it is working or ready to. Compute draws from your credits while it works.
  • Asleep: an idle agent scales to zero. Compute stops entirely. Its disk, files, and memory stay intact, and disk within your plan is free, so a sleeping agent costs nothing.

You never manage this. The agent wakes when you talk to it and sleeps when it has been idle for a while. Next conversation, it opens the same disk and remembers what it knew.

Picking a model

Each agent has a model you can change at any time from the dropdown in the chat header. The Free plan runs the cost-efficient tier, strong agentic coders that spend fewer credits per job. Paid plans unlock every frontier model. You can also bring your own model key and pay your provider directly.
