# The Lite Plan is Sunsetting

99% of our clients won't be affected by this. If you are not on the Lite plan, feel free to click away.

For those that are, read on.

We tried. ﻿About a year ago we added the Lite Plan to the platform, a very low-cost plan built around H1, AS1, and VM1. It was a nice idea but never really caught on.

A few of folks are still using it, but keeping a plan alive for a handful of accounts isn't sustainable, so we've made the call to retire it. **As of the 1st of September this year, the Lite Plan is going away.**

If you're currently on the Lite Plan, you'll need to consider what's next, whether that's moving to [another plan](https://betterbuilding.io/plans) or migrating back to the world of the spreadsheet! ﻿You don't need to worry about your project information. We'll retain all of it, and you'll keep full access, with or without a paid plan.

One thing you don't need to worry about: your project information isn't going anywhere. We'll retain all of it, and you'll keep full access, regardless of what plan you move to.

We'll follow up with more details on next steps before the August deadline. If you've got questions in the meantime, just reach out.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.betterbuilding.io/sign-up-and-plans/news-and-updates/2026/the-lite-plan-is-sunsetting.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
