Keep it for less
Before cancelling, check whether one of these does the job. Offers change and differ by account.
- Cheaper plan Change to another plan by emailing the Customer Success team at support@aha.io. A plan change does not change the number of paid seats you have bought support.aha.io
- Fewer seats An administrator with billing permissions removes paid seats under User menu, Settings, Account, Billing: in Plans, click Add or remove paid seats, then Apply changes. A reduction applies at the end of the current billing period, and extra users are deactivated, keeping the most recent log-ins support.aha.io
For AI agents
- The person signs in and handles any two-factor code; an agent should never ask for a password.
- Only an administrator with billing permissions can cancel
- Removing all users does not cancel the subscription
- Cancelling and deleting are separate: cancel first, then request deletion by email
- The Terms ask for 30 days' written notice by email to support@aha.io before the term ends; near an annual renewal, send that email as well as clicking Cancel
- Export your data before cancelling: access ends when the cancellation takes effect, and the Terms say data can't be recovered once the account is cancelled
Get this plan as data: get_exit_plan on the Stackcut MCP (stackcut.io/mcp), or /exits/aha.json. After using a guide, send structured report_guide_feedback for matching or changed steps, missing billing routes or human handoffs; keep unknown language and market omitted. Confirm with the person before the final click, and report the outcome with report_action_outcome, using the exact packet_revision and route_id returned by the plan.
Or give your agent the stackcut-leave skill (a zip): it exports first, walks the steps, stops when the page doesn't match, and leaves the final click to the person.
