How to Cancel Any AI Subscription (2026)
Every AI directory on the internet will help you sign up. This is the page for getting back out — exact steps for each billing channel, whether a refund is realistically available, and what happens to the work you already made.
⚠️ The mistake that keeps the charges coming
If you subscribed inside an iPhone or Android app, the vendor never held your billing — Apple or Google did. Cancelling on the vendor’s website, or deleting the app, does nothing to that charge. Check who sent your receipt: if it came from Apple or Google, cancel it in Settings → your name → Subscriptions or in the Play Store, not in the product. This single mismatch accounts for a large share of “I cancelled and I’m still being billed” complaints across every tool below.
Cancellation Guides
Cancel ChatGPT Plus
$20/month (Plus), $200/month (Pro)
Cancel Plus from the web billing portal, or from Apple Settings if you subscribed on an iPhone — the two are separate and cancelling one does not stop the other.
Cancel Midjourney
$10 – $120/month
Cancel from midjourney.com/account or with /subscribe in Discord. Midjourney is unusual in offering a genuine refund if you have barely used your fast hours.
Cancel Grammarly Premium
$12 – $30/month, billed annually or monthly
Cancel from account.grammarly.com under Subscription. Uninstalling the browser extension does not cancel anything, and annual plans renew silently.
Cancel Jasper AI
$39 – $69/seat/month, or annual
Cancel from the in-app billing settings. Annual Jasper plans are the least forgiving in this list — there is no partial-year refund, so cancel means 'do not renew'.
Cancel ElevenLabs
$5 – $330/month by character allowance
Cancel from the subscription page in your account. The thing to check first is what happens to cloned voices and to audio you have already published commercially.
Cancel Descript
$12 – $50/seat/month
Cancel from Settings → Plan & Billing. The critical step is exporting your projects first — Descript projects are not a standard file format you can open elsewhere.
Cancel Otter.ai
Free Basic, $16.99/user/month Pro ($8.33 billed annually), $30/user/month Business
Cancel from workspace billing settings — but only the workspace owner or an admin can do it, and it has to be at least 24 hours before the renewal date or the charge still lands.
Cancel QuillBot Premium
Free tier, $19.95/month, $39.95 per quarter, $99.95/year ($8.33/month)
Cancelling QuillBot means turning off auto-renewal in your account settings. It stops the next charge; it does not claw back the one that already went through.
Cancel Perplexity Pro
Free tier, $20/month or $200/year (Pro), $200/month (Max)
Cancel from Settings → Subscription → Manage Plan. The part that costs people money is the refund window, which is measured in hours, not days.
Cancel Speechify Premium
Free tier, Premium $139/year (billed annually) or $29/month
Speechify is billed through four different channels — Stripe, PayPal, the App Store and Google Play — and the cancel button only exists in the one that took your money. Check app.speechify.com/subscription first to find out which.
Cancel CapCut Pro
Free tier, Pro around $9.99/month (annual plans billed up front)
CapCut's terms give you a full refund within 14 calendar days of starting a subscription — but only if you have not used any Pro feature since subscribing. That clause is the whole game, and it expires quietly.
Cancel Runway (Standard / Pro / Unlimited)
Free tier (125 one-off credits), Standard $12/user/mo, Pro $28/user/mo, Unlimited $76/user/mo
Cancel from the web workspace before the renewal date. The thing to get right first is credits: your monthly plan credits are forfeited at reset, while separately purchased credits stay on the account.
Cancel Suno (Pro / Premier)
Free tier (50 credits/day), Pro around $10/month, Premier around $30/month
Cancel at suno.com/account if you paid by card, or in the App Store / Play Store if you subscribed on your phone — Suno says plainly it often cannot modify mobile subscriptions at all.
Cancel Leonardo AI (Apprentice / Artisan / Maestro)
Free tier (150 fast tokens/day), Apprentice around $12/month, Artisan around $30/month, Maestro around $60/month
Cancel from Settings on the web app before renewal. The part people get wrong is the token economy: subscription tokens expire at the end of the cycle, so cancelling mid-month with a full balance throws away tokens you have already paid for.
Cancel HeyGen (Creator / Team / Enterprise)
Free tier (3 watermarked videos/month), Creator around $29/month, Team around $89/month per seat
Cancel from Settings → Subscription on the web app. The two things to handle first are credits, which do not survive the cycle, and your custom avatar, which is the asset you actually paid to build.
Cancel Copy.ai (Starter / Advanced / GTM)
Free tier (limited monthly credits), Starter around $49/month, Advanced around $249/month
Cancel from Workspace Settings → Billing on the web app. Copy.ai repriced around workflows and seats, so the number on your invoice is often higher than the plan you originally signed up for — check the invoice before assuming.
Cancel Remini (Pro / Weekly)
Free tier (limited daily enhances with ads), Weekly around $9.99, Yearly around $79.99
Almost every Remini subscription is bought inside the iOS or Android app, which means Apple or Google holds it — deleting the app does nothing, and there is no cancel button inside Remini itself that can stop the charge.
A Checklist That Applies to All of Them
- 1
Find out who is actually billing you
Search your email for the last receipt. The sender tells you whether the vendor, Apple, Google, or a reseller holds the subscription — and only that party can stop it.
- 2
Write down the renewal date before you touch anything
It determines whether you are inside a refund window and how long you keep access. Most cancellations take effect at period end, not immediately.
- 3
Export your work first
Transcripts, generated audio, project files, brand voices, saved prompts. Free tiers usually restrict export, so doing this after cancelling is harder than doing it before.
- 4
Remove extra seats before cancelling the plan
Per-seat tools bill on seat count. Cancelling the owner's plan does not always remove teammates, and orphaned seats keep charging.
- 5
Decline the pause and the discount if you want out
Retention flows offer both. A pause is not a cancellation — billing restarts automatically when it ends.
- 6
Verify with the confirmation email
If no email arrives within a few minutes, assume the cancellation did not go through and repeat it. Screenshot the end date either way.
Before You Resubscribe to Anything
Every reader here is cancelling something and asking AI what to use instead.
