Pricing
Two plans. The free one is permanent and needs no card — it is not a trial that expires and turns your workspace off. Pro is $29 a month, flat, with no per-symbol fees, no data add-ons, and no annual contract.
Market data on every plan is real CBOE data, delayed 15 minutes. We say that plainly because it is the first thing a trader should check about any tool, and because a delayed number you can trust is worth more than a real-time one you cannot.

What Pro is not
Being clear about the ceiling is more useful than another feature bullet, and it is the same reason the comparison page lists what other tools do better.
- —It is not real-time data. Every plan is on the same 15-minute delayed CBOE feed. Pro unlocks modules, never a faster tape.
- —It is not order flow. There is no dark-pool print feed and no flow alerting. If that is your process, Unusual Whales does it properly and we say so.
- —It is not a broker. You cannot route an order from here, and OptionScope is not a registered broker-dealer or investment advisor.
- —It is not signals. Nothing here tells you what to buy. It tells you what a contract is worth and what it does when the stock moves.
Pricing questions
How much does OptionScope cost?
OptionScope has a permanent free tier that costs nothing and does not require a card, and a Pro tier at $29 per month. The free tier includes the full option chain, the Greeks Lab, the Black-Scholes fair value engine with IV rank and percentile, and three starter scans. Pro adds the gamma flip heatmap, the expected move overlay, the Edge tools, the Momentum scanner, the 0DTE Modeler, the Position Analyzer and the full scan library.
Is the free plan a trial?
No. The free tier is permanent, not a countdown. It does not expire, it does not ask for a card, and the modules it includes stay included. It exists because judging whether a contract is cheap or expensive is the part of options that beginners most need help with, and putting that behind a paywall would be the wrong call.
Can I cancel Pro at any time?
Yes. Pro is billed monthly through Stripe and you can cancel from the billing portal in your account at any time, without contacting support. Cancelling stops the next charge and Pro stays active until the end of the period you have already paid for, after which the account reverts to the free tier with your watchlist intact.
Do I need to pay to get real market data?
No. Every plan, including the free one, runs on the same real CBOE market data delayed by 15 minutes. There is no cheaper or degraded data tier. Paying for Pro unlocks additional analysis modules, not a faster or better feed.
Is there an annual plan?
Not currently. Pro is monthly only at $29 per month. Rather than advertise a discounted annual price that checkout cannot actually charge, this page lists only what you can buy today.
How does the price compare to other options tools?
Pro sits below the common $50 to $100 per month range for options analytics platforms, and the feature set is deliberately narrower — it is built around judging a single contract and managing a position you already hold, rather than scanning the whole market or streaming order flow. The comparison page sets out where competing tools are genuinely stronger.
Try it before you decide
The free tier is the honest way to evaluate this — no card, no countdown. Open a chain, price a contract, and see whether the fair value read tells you something you did not already know.
