Common Inquiries
Yes, you can upgrade or downgrade at any time. Changes are prorated — you'll only pay the difference for the remainder of your billing cycle.
The Research Companion is an AI assistant that helps you find cross-references, see a passage in its context, and clarify difficult passages, starting from the Bible text. History, tradition, and original-language points are labeled as not checked, so verify them yourself. You do the studying.
Church and group discount pricing is not available at this time. If you lead a congregation or study group of 10 or more and would like to talk about it, email us at contact@bereandefense.com.
