Pricing
Free has to be genuinely useful for one small personal app from a solo developer — that's the whole demo, and the whole funnel. Pro exists for when a relay, more apps, or automations are worth paying for.

Why not paid up front?
The buyer has to feel "my agent, native, on my phone" before they'll believe in it — a price wall before that moment kills the thing that actually sells this. That's also why there's no waitlist: pre-launch access goes straight to a TestFlight invite.
Why not a one-time purchase?
The relay has real recurring cost — push infrastructure, bandwidth — and it's exactly the feature people reach for once one small personal app isn't enough anymore. A one-time "supporter" unlock for something smaller could show up later; it isn't part of this plan.
What if I don't want to pay at all?
The relay is open source under AGPL-3.0 and self-hostable in a single Docker container — see the relay self-hosting docs. Self-hosting gets you a direct, private, always-reachable connection without a subscription. The one thing it can't remove: Apple requires our own push key for APNs delivery, so even a self-hosted relay routes the final push trigger through our thin hosted gateway. Direct connections (no push, no remote reach) need no relay and no gateway at all.
