Free Tier Value
Launch is free forever with no credit card required, but it is still meaningfully capped at 2,500 subscribers, 1 team member, 3 publications, 10 AI credits/day, and 1 podcast episode/month. Compared with Scale at $43/month, the free tier includes most of the core publishing stack plus unlimited sends and analytics, but it excludes monetization, automations, advanced analytics, and team scaling; that puts it at roughly 70-75% of Scale’s practical value, so about $43/month is a defensible ceiling and estimate.
