Plans and Activation

The upgrade panel follows the task you are currently doing.

Task-Specific Plans

Click the upgrade button inside the current workspace to see the plans relevant to that job:

OCR: a new device includes a one-time 60-minute OCR export allowance. OCR plans unlock unlimited OCR exports. Speech recognition is included as an extra, without cloud AI credits.
Transcribe: speech recognition itself is free and unlimited. Choose a local plan for clean exports, or Pro when you need AI features such as smart segmentation or title generation.
Translate: built-in AI translation engines require Pro and consume credits. Bring an existing SRT or create source subtitles first.

The app shows the current price, duration, renewal terms, and included credits before purchase.

How to Activate

Open the upgrade panel In the app, click the upgrade button in the top bar. Its label and plan emphasis follow the current workspace.
Get an activation code If you don't have one yet, pick a plan in the panel to purchase. Already have a code? Click the "Have a license key? Enter it here" link at the bottom of the panel.
Enter the activation code Paste your activation code into the input field (two formats are supported; see below).
Activate Click the "Activate" button. Once verified, the benefits included with that license are enabled immediately.

Tip After activation, the status area shows either "Pro activated" or "Local Pass active", depending on the license. A Local Pass does not unlock cloud AI credits, so the Pro option remains available.

Activation Code Formats

GeekLink supports two activation code formats:

Standard format: GEEK-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX (letters and numbers)
Lemon Squeezy UUID format: xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx

Both formats can be pasted directly into the activation input field.

FAQ

How many devices can I use my activation code on?

A GeekLink license can be active on one device at a time.

What if I switch to a new computer?

A device move must be started from the currently bound computer. Self-service moves require more than 60 days of membership remaining, deduct 7 days of membership, and are limited to once per calendar month. Lifetime licenses may also be moved once per month, with no membership-time deduction. Monthly plans and 5-day Local Passes do not meet the 60-day requirement.

If eligible, open the activation / Pro panel on the old computer and click Deactivate this device. Then install GeekLink Subtitle Factory on the new computer and enter the same activation code.

If the old computer is lost or won't boot so you can't deactivate it yourself, contact with your activation code and we'll help unbind it.

What if activation fails?

Please follow these troubleshooting steps:

Check that your internet connection is working (activation requires online verification)
Verify that the activation code is entered correctly, paying attention to case and format (we recommend copy-pasting)
Confirm that the activation code has not exceeded its device limit

If activation still fails, please contact with your activation code and a screenshot of the error message, and we will assist you promptly.
