What counts as an active repository?
Any repo the GitHub App actively scans and runs PR checks on. Archived or unselected repos don't count.
Can we change bands mid‑cycle?
Yes. If you cross a band you move up; if you shrink you move down at the next renewal.
Is there a free trial?
You can install in sandbox mode on a small set of repos to see the scan and bootstrap PR before paying.
Do you do annual contracts?
Yes, on Scale, with invoicing. Starter and Growth are month‑to‑month by default.
