basic plan

Bare-bones approach outline

A basic plan is the simplest or most affordable tier of a service offering, typically providing essential features without extras.

Insurance companies, streaming services, and gyms all offer basic plans as entry-level options: The basic plan covers doctor visits but not dental.

The term implies something adequate but limited—you get what you need, not what you might want.
