Yes. Your account data is stored on encrypted databases powered by Turso, an edge-distributed database with encryption at rest. Authentication is handled by Clerk, an industry-leading auth provider with SOC 2 Type II certification. Payments are processed by Stripe — we never see or store your credit card number. We do not sell your data to third parties.
No. We never ask for your Albion Online game credentials and have no ability to access your game account. AlbionForge only uses publicly available APIs provided by Sandbox Interactive and the Albion Online Data Project. Your AlbionForge account is completely separate from your game account.
Market prices come from the Albion Online Data Project, a community-run initiative. Players who run the data collection client automatically submit market data as they browse the in-game auction house. We aggregate this data across all 7 royal cities plus Caerleon and Brecilien, refreshing every 5 minutes.
Prices are as accurate as the community data allows. The more players running the data client in a particular city, the more accurate and up-to-date the prices will be. Popular items in major cities (Caerleon, Bridgewatch, Fort Sterling) tend to have very accurate data. Niche items or less-trafficked cities may have stale prices. Always verify critical trades in-game before committing significant silver.
Yes, anytime. Go to your Settings page in the dashboard and click "Manage Subscription" to cancel through Stripe's billing portal. You keep full access to paid features until the end of your current billing period. No cancellation fees, no questions asked.
No. All your trade history, watchlists, saved builds, price alert configurations, and portfolio data are kept forever — even if you cancel your subscription entirely. If you downgrade from Pro to Free, you lose access to Pro features but your data remains intact. If you re-subscribe later, everything is exactly where you left it.
Plus ($2.99/mo) adds the Profit Engine (auto-ranked opportunities), City Arbitrage finder, all Calculators (crafting, refining, enchanting), the Economy Hub with P&L tracking, and up to 10 price alerts.

Pro ($4.99/mo) adds everything in Plus, plus the Black Market Flipper, Investment Simulator, Focus Planner, Build Planner, Transport Route Optimizer, Journal Tracker, Claude-powered AI Advisor, and unlimited price alerts.
The Profit Engine scans all craftable, refinable, and tradeable items across all cities every 5 minutes. For each item, it calculates the full material cost (including cascading sub-materials), applies the relevant resource return rate (15.2% base, 36.7% with focus), factors in the 6.5% market tax, and computes the net profit and ROI. Results are ranked by silver-per-hour efficiency so you can instantly see the most profitable activities.
Focus is a daily resource in Albion Online. Premium players receive 10,000 Focus points per day. When you spend Focus while crafting or refining, your resource return rate increases from 15.2% to 36.7% — meaning you get significantly more materials back. This dramatically increases profit margins. The Focus Planner tool helps you allocate your daily 10,000 Focus across different activities to maximize total profit.
Set a target price for any item in any city. Choose whether you want to be alerted when the price drops below your target (good for buying) or rises above it (good for selling). When the condition is met, you receive an email notification via Resend. Free users get 2 alerts, Plus users get 10, and Pro users get unlimited.

Yes. AlbionForge only uses publicly available APIs that Sandbox Interactive has made available for community use. We do not interact with the game client, modify game files, read game memory, or automate any in-game actions. Our tool operates entirely in your web browser, separate from the game. The Albion Online Data Project, which supplies our market data, has been active and accepted by the community for years.
  • Market prices — every 5 minutes for the top 500 most-watched items across all cities.
  • Kill events — every 2 minutes from the official GameInfo API.
  • Meta stats — weapon, armor, and food usage rankings are recalculated hourly.
  • Item database — synced weekly with the latest game data dumps to catch new items from patches.
The AI Advisor (Pro tier) is powered by Anthropic's Claude. When you ask a question like "What should I craft with 500k silver and 10k focus in Lymhurst?", we fetch current market prices for relevant items, inject them into the AI context along with your profile (home city, focus, capital), and get back personalized, data-backed recommendations ranked by profit. You get 20 queries per day. The AI never sees your personal account credentials — only game preferences and market data.
Yes. From the Economy Hub, you can export your complete trade log, P&L history, and portfolio snapshots as CSV files for use in spreadsheets or external tools. Your data is yours.
