Trial periods are an effective lever in product-led and sales-led GTM motions. Orb's capabilities for managing trials just got a big upgrade.

We've added a new API endpoint, Update Trial, that allows you to change or extend the end date of subscription's trial. By default, Orb will only shift the trial end date, leaving the rest of the subscription unchanged. You can also specify an option to shift the rest of the subscription by the same duration.

With this new endpoint, it's possible to retroactively extend a trial after it has already ended—if you need to give a prospect a few extra trial days to convert, Orb makes this operation easy.

When creating a new subscription or scheduling a plan change, you're able to override the trial duration.

Managing trials in the dashboard is as easy and powerful as via the API. In the subscription card, use the "Update trial" action to make adjustments to the trial period.
