What might cost money later
Honest version: we haven't set prices because we don't have the usage to set them well yet. Down the road we expect paid extras for the people who get the most out of Skep — analytics for podcast creators, and an inexpensive Pro tier for power features like auto-updating playlists, cross-platform export, and alerts. None of that is live, none of it is priced, and the everyday discovery experience stays free.
Common questions
+ − How much does Skep cost?
Nothing right now. Skep is free while we grow — no card, no trial timer, no locked rankings. We'd rather have you using it than paying us this early.
+ − Will it always be free?
Discovery — finding great episodes — is meant to stay free. Later we may add optional paid extras (creator analytics, and a cheap Pro tier for power features like auto-updating playlists and alerts), but nothing's priced yet and there are no surprises.
+ − Will you suddenly put me behind a paywall?
No. The free tier stays generous on purpose — Skep gets better the more people use it. If a paid tier ever lands, the everyday experience you have today stays free.
+ − Do I need an account?
No. Skep works the moment you land — your taste and playlists are saved anonymously. Signing in is optional and just carries your hive across devices.
