Monetization

Revenue without ruining UX.

We monetize our own apps via lightweight ads and optional subscriptions. The goal: a usable free experience, and premium upgrades that feel fair.

Rules we follow

Value before paywall
Ads are light & skippable
Premium removes friction
Measure, then iterate

Models

How we monetize

The approach depends on the category, the user expectation, and what “premium” means for that app.

Ad-supported (lightweight)

Best for broad utilities and daily tools where users expect a free baseline.

  • Show ads after value
  • Avoid blocking flows
  • Cap frequency
  • Offer an ad-free premium

Subscription-first

Best for habit-based products where ongoing value compounds over time.

  • Clear premium promise
  • Trial where appropriate
  • Restore purchases
  • Paywall hygiene

Ads + optional premium

Our default when it fits: keep free usable, then charge to remove friction or unlock power.

  • Free stays usable
  • Premium removes friction
  • Respectful upsells
  • Iterate with data

Yes. Many products benefit from a small monthly cadence for updates, fixes, and improvements.
