We believe our pricing is simple and fair. Why?

We’ve spent a lot of time thinking: “How can we treat our customers how we’d like to be treated?” We’re developers trying to build a business, just like you. We pay for software and services all the time.

So when it came to figuring out how to price our product, we decided not to charge per minute or per stream like some competitors. We just charge for the bandwidth you use because it’s a good indicator that you’re using and getting value out of the whole thing that we made. In reality, we don’t even charge for all of your usage, because only ~40% of WebRTC calls need a server relay to connect people behind firewalls—the rest are peer-to-peer.

When you’re successful, we want your success to increase. We don’t want you to build a long-term relationship with us and then feel beholden as we take a constant, sizable chunk out of your business forever. So we charge enough to be able to give you our attention when you need it the most—at the beginning—and our rates get dramatically cheaper as you scale.

You’re smart enough to know that, relatively speaking, servers are cheap. You know bandwidth is cheap. What isn’t cheap is people who know a lot and care a lot and spend years investing in building the best software they can. We’re so proud of our team’s work.

More than anything, we’re invested in the success of each company using SimpleWebRTC.

We’re a small bootstrapped company. We don’t want a million faceless customers. We don’t care about having a huge slice of the market. We’re never going to dominate like our friends at Twilio or Tokbox. We’re just not that kind of company, and that’s okay.

Our pricing is designed to encourage people who are making heavy use of SimpleWebRTC to move to higher base level plans that give you much more bandwidth at lower fees.

Here's our pricing promise to you:

• You can upgrade or downgrade anytime based on the usage you need.

We want to sell to the kind of people who want to know the folks who make the software they depend on. We want to be part of your team.

But it doesn’t matter what we think. It matters what you think.

And we’d love to hear from you. If you have feedback or thoughts on our pricing, we’re all ears.
