never paywalled

What Pro doesn’t gate.

These stay free whether you subscribe, cancel or never pay at all. The only thing Free counts is recipes: you pick three and run them as often as you like, and Pro starts at the fourth.

Your files

Markdown on your device, visible in the Files app and readable by any editor. They sit in a folder, not behind a plan.

Unlimited saves

Ten items or ten thousand. We don’t meter library size on any plan.

On-device AI

Summaries, tags and cards for every item you save, free for good.

Search

Search by meaning and by exact words, across everything. Finding your own notes isn’t a premium feature.

Ask

Answers with sources, and “not in your library” when that’s the truth. There’s no paywall in front of it.

Reels, voice and screenshots

Read, transcribed and searchable on the phone, on every plan.

Deep Parse

A second try at pages your phone can’t read. Only the link goes to our server, and only when you tap it.

Your own Claude key

Paste it in Settings and your phone talks to Anthropic directly. You pay Anthropic, not us.

What a year costs elsewhere.

All of these are good products. This is only about the bill.

worth knowing first

Before you pay anything.

What happens if I stop paying?

Your files stay on your device, and Free keeps working in full, including Ask, Deep Parse and your Claude key. Your three chosen recipes keep running. The other recipes wait until you come back.

What does “bring your own Claude key” cost?

You pay Anthropic directly at their API rates, and only when you ask something. A typical question over a library costs a cent or two. IKI adds nothing on top and never routes the traffic through our servers.

What exactly do Founders get?

One payment of $99 through the App Store buys Pro for the life of the product, including features that don’t exist yet, plus a founder badge in your library and a direct line to the makers. There are 500 seats in total.

Does one purchase cover my iPhone and iPad?

Yes. Plans follow your Apple Account the usual App Store way, and Family Sharing follows Apple’s rules. Turn on iCloud Drive storage in IKI and your devices share one library as well.

Free is most of the app.

Upgrade the day you reach for a fourth recipe, if that day comes.
