Questions About Ownership?
We know it sounds too good to be true. Here's the truth.
Why would you give up recurring revenue?
Because we're not trying to build a Silicon Valley unicorn. We're building honest tools for honest work. We'd rather have satisfied owners than trapped subscribers. Plus, we make money building custom features and helping new customers reach ownership.
What's the actual cost to own it?
It depends on what you build. If you just use core tools on Sapling plan, you might own it after 18 months of $47/mo payments (~$850 total). If you add custom features, we charge fair hourly rates for development. Most contractors end up investing $2,000-$4,000 total to own their complete custom CRM. Compare that to $948/year forever with traditional CRM.
What if I need help after ownership transfer?
We're not going anywhere. Need support? We'll help you at fair hourly rates. Want a new feature? Same deal. But you're never forced to come back to us. You own the code. Hire anyone you want. Or maintain it yourself.
Can I really host it myself?
Yes. 100%. We'll even help you set it up. AWS, DigitalOcean, your own server in your shop—wherever you want. It's yours. We provide documentation and can help with setup if needed (at fair rates, no markup).
What if my business grows and I need more features?
That's the best part. You own the code. Build it yourself, hire us, hire someone else—your choice. No "contact sales for enterprise pricing" BS. No forced upgrades. You're in control.
Is there a catch?
No. The "catch" is that we're not building a billion-dollar SaaS company. We're building sustainable software for people who value ownership. We make money building custom features and helping customers reach ownership. Then we celebrate when they stop paying us monthly rent. That's it.
