FAQ

Why lithium teams subscribe

The questions we hear most from people who work on lithium projects every day.

What is the Market Intelligence Access fee?
It is a one-time payment that opens the full project database to your account, charged once when you subscribe on a monthly plan. Building and normalising that database — technical reports, filings and disclosures turned into comparable figures — is the expensive part of what we do, and the fee covers it up front instead of hiding it in a higher monthly rate. Annual plans do not pay it at all — the yearly price is flat, which is why it works out cheaper than twelve months plus the fee.
What does "price locked for 24 months" mean?
The rate you sign up at is the rate you pay for the next 24 months, as long as your subscription stays active. When that period ends you move to the price in force at that time, permanently discounted by 30% for having been an early subscriber — and we write to you 60 days before, never after. The lock follows the subscription, not the account: cancel and come back later and you rejoin at the price in force that day.
What happens when the founding seats run out?
Nothing to anyone who already subscribed — their price is locked. New subscribers move to the next pricing tier, which is a higher rate. The counter on this page is the real number of memberships granted, read from our database; it is not a timer that resets when you reload. A seat is not released when someone cancels: it counts memberships granted, not memberships currently active.
What exactly do I get for free?
More than most platforms give away: the global map with a selection of projects, the basic news section, the complete Learning hub, and full Market Data — lithium price charts and the stock dashboard for the main producers. No card, no trial clock. The Free plan is meant to be genuinely useful, not a locked demo.
What does Pro add?
One thing, and it is the important one: the complete project database on the map. Free shows a selection; Pro shows every lithium project we track — brine and hard-rock, from early exploration to production — with no watermark and no hidden markers. If your work involves comparing or screening projects, this is the plan.
And what does Premium add?
The analysis layer on top of the data: the Analytics page for brine chemistry and benchmarking, engineering calculation tools, a project explorer with advanced filters and full project sheets (CAPEX, OPEX, NPV, life of mine), and data export so the figures go straight into your own models. Premium is for people who need to reach a conclusion, not just look at a map.
Some Premium features say "Coming soon". What am I paying for today?
We label them honestly on purpose. Today Premium gives you everything in Pro plus the Analytics page. The engineering tools, the project explorer and data export are on the roadmap and are included at no extra cost the moment they ship — your price does not change. If your decision depends on a feature that is not live yet, write to us before subscribing.
Monthly or annual — what is the difference?
The annual plan is a single flat payment with no Market Intelligence Access fee, which is what makes it cheaper. Monthly plans can be cancelled at any time; annual plans run for the twelve months you paid for.
Can I get a refund?
Yes. 14-day money-back guarantee, no questions asked. Write to us within 14 days of your purchase and we refund everything you paid — the subscription and the Market Intelligence Access fee. You do not need to explain why. Payments are processed by Paddle, our merchant of record, so the money goes back to the card you used. The full text is on our Refund Policy page.
I could find this information myself. Why pay for it?
You can — and that is exactly the problem. The data lives scattered across technical reports, press releases, investor decks and government filings, in different units and different languages. Rebuilding that picture takes days of work every time. LithiumOPS keeps it normalised, comparable and one click away, so your time goes into analysis instead of data hunting.
Where does the data come from and how often is it updated?
Every figure is compiled from public sources — technical reports, company disclosures, regulatory filings and official statistics — and reviewed before it reaches the map. Free plans see quarterly refreshes, Pro receives monthly updates, and Premium subscribers get priority refreshes as projects advance.
I only work in one country. Is a global platform worth it?
Especially then. Costs, grades and process choices only mean something when you compare them against what the rest of the world is doing. Benchmarking your project against every comparable operation worldwide is the fastest way to know whether your numbers hold up.
Can I use the data in my own reports and presentations?
Yes. Pro allows use in internal and client-facing work with attribution to LithiumOPS. Premium includes commercial use plus data export, so you can drop the figures straight into your models and decks.
Which plan should I start with?
Start on Free — it already covers Learning, news and market data. Move to Pro the day you need the full project map, and to Premium when you need the analysis layer: analytics, engineering tools and detailed project economics.
Can I change or cancel my plan?
Yes. You can upgrade, downgrade or cancel at any time from your account page. If you cancel, you keep full access until the end of the period you already paid for.
Do you offer team or enterprise access?
Team seats, custom datasets and API access are on the roadmap. If your organisation needs several users or a specific data cut, get in touch and we will work out the right setup.

Still deciding? Start on the free map and upgrade the day you need the full database.
