Pricing questions.
Is there a subscription?
No. You buy KeptNote once and it is yours.
Do updates cost extra?
Every version 1 update is included. A future version 2 would be a separate purchase, with a discount for people who already own KeptNote.
How many Macs can I use it on?
Two Macs and two iPhones (iPhone when it ships). A purchase covers one person.
Is the AI included?
The note written on your Mac is included. It needs no key and no internet. Improve with Claude, GPT, Grok or Gemini, and Ask, use your own provider key, and that provider bills you directly.
What happens when the trial ends?
Your meetings stay readable and exportable forever, whether you buy or not. Only new recordings need a purchase.
What currency are the prices in?
US dollars.
How do I use a friends-and-family code?
Press Buy, and enter the code on the Stripe page. Stripe still asks for your name, email and country, even when the code makes the price zero.
Buying for a team?
Tell us how many Macs. We write back with an invoice and one key per person.
