Pricing·Plainly stated
Honest pricing, plainly stated.
Mailicity is free while we're still early. No card to enter, no trial countdown, no asking for your details up front. Here's exactly where things stand.
Free while we're still here, together.
We're in the early days, and Mailicity is free for the families using it now — no credit card, no fourteen-day countdown, no upsell. You set it up, it looks after your parent's inbox, and it doesn't cost you anything while we're in this early stretch.

§Section 1 · Why it's free right now
Two honest reasons.
First, Mailicity is early, and early products should earn their price by being good before they ask for money. We'd rather a small number of families use it, tell us what's wrong, and help us make it right — than charge for something still finding its feet.
Second, the families using Mailicity now are doing us a favour. You're the ones telling us what works and what doesn't, what's missing, what's confusing. That's worth more to us right now than a subscription fee. Being here early should be rewarded, not charged for.
¶Section 2 · The commitments
What to expect when pricing arrives.
We'll be just as straight with you about this, because we know subscriptions can feel like a trap — especially if you've been burned by services that auto-renew, creep their prices up, or quietly get worse.
Here's our commitment.
-
You'll get plenty of notice.
When we introduce a price, the families already using Mailicity will hear about it well in advance — not a surprise charge, not a card you forgot you'd entered. Clear warning, with time to decide.
-
It'll be fair.
We're looking at the kind of price you'd expect for a thoughtful subscription that looks after someone you love — in the range of a few coffees a month, not a phone bill. We're not building a product that gouges families caring for a parent.
-
Being here early will count for something.
The families who joined while we were finding our feet won't be worse off for it. We'll make sure of that.
-
No dark patterns. Ever.
No making it hard to cancel. No hiding the off switch. No "are you sure you want to leave your parent unprotected?" guilt-trips. If Mailicity isn't right for you, leaving will be as easy as joining.
◇Section 3 · The clean parts of the deal
What you're not paying for, ever.
Worth saying plainly, because it's part of the deal:
No ads.
Your parent's inbox is never advertising space.
No data sales.
We're paid by families, not by anyone buying data. More on our privacy page.
No hardware to buy.
Mailicity runs on the iPad your parent already has. There's no device, no dock, no cellular plan bundled in.
The price of Mailicity, now and later, is for the software and the service. Nothing else, hidden or otherwise.
