Terms of Service
Last updated: March 6, 2026
These Terms of Service (“Terms”) govern your access to and use of Synaptic (“the Service”), a Visual Studio Code extension developed and operated by GoLab (“we”, “us”, “our”). By using the Service, you agree to be bound by these Terms.
1. Service Description
Synaptic is a Visual Studio Code extension that integrates artificial intelligence assistants to help developers with software engineering tasks. The Service connects to third-party AI providers to process prompts and return AI-generated responses within the VS Code editor.
2. Account Registration
To use Synaptic, you must sign in using a supported authentication provider (Google or GitHub). By signing in, you authorize us to access your basic profile information (name, email address, and profile photo) for account creation and identification purposes.
You are responsible for maintaining the security of your account and for all activities that occur under your account.
3. Subscription Plans and Pricing
Synaptic offers the following subscription plans:
| Plan | Monthly Cycles | Price (USD) |
|---|---|---|
| Free | 25 | $0 |
| Pro | 400 | $20/month |
| Full | Unlimited | $100/month |
- A “cycle” represents one complete AI-assisted interaction (prompt and response).
- All plans include access to the same features; only the number of monthly cycles differs.
- Cycle quotas reset on the first day of each calendar month.
- Unused cycles do not carry over to the next month.
- Prices are in US Dollars (USD) and may be subject to applicable taxes depending on your jurisdiction.
We reserve the right to modify pricing with 30 days’ prior notice to active subscribers.
4. Payment and Billing

- Paid subscriptions are billed monthly on a recurring basis.
- Billing begins at the time of subscription.
- You may cancel your subscription at any time through the Lemon Squeezy Customer Portal. Cancellation takes effect at the end of the current billing period.
