The plan costs $20 per month and provides unlimited access to Dia\u2019s AI-powered chat and skills features.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The introduction of a paid tier means free users will now face usage limits on AI features. While The Browser Company hasn\u2019t specified exact limits, CEO Josh Miller told The New York Times in July that the browser will remain free for those who use AI features \u201ca few times a week.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"wp-element-caption__text\">Image Credits: Screenshot by TechCrunch<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Miller also indicated that the startup plans to offer multiple subscription tiers, ranging from $5 per month to hundreds of dollars monthly. The current $20 plan appears to be one of several options based on different feature sets.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Earlier this week, users on Reddit and Threads noticed that The Browser Company had quietly made the Pro plan available online. However, the company quickly removed the page. Now the subscription option has been restored and can be accessed through Dia\u2019s settings page.<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"wp-element-caption__text\">Screenshot<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Browser Company, which previously made the Arc browser, has raised $128 million from investors, including Pace Capital, Next Play Ventures, and notable tech execs like LinkedIn\u2019s Jeff Weiner, Medium\u2019s Ev Williams, Figma\u2019s Dylan Field, Notion\u2019s Akshay Kothari, and GitHub\u2019s Jason Warner. This Pro plan represents the company\u2019s first revenue-generating subscription service.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The startup faces growing competition when it comes to AI-enhanced browsers. Perplexity\u2019s Comet browser is gaining steam, Opera is also prepping its Neon browser, and incumbents like Google and Microsoft are also integrating their AI assistants into their browsers.<\/p>\n<p>Techcrunch event<\/p>\n<p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"inline-cta__location\">San Francisco<\/span><br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"inline-cta__separator\">|<\/span><br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"inline-cta__date\">October 27-29, 2025<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Browser Company has launched a Pro subscription plan for Dia, its new web browser that heavily integrates AI features.
