Yep - it's a 30 day free trial. After that it's $9/month. Like GitHub, we're also offering a plan for organizations that want to provide Ship to their whole team. Our pricing page goes into more detail -- https://www.realartists.com/pricing.html You're right, though - we should mention the free trial part on the front page. Thanks for the feedback and for trying it out!
How do you charge a subscription for a downloadable, native app? Does the app stop working if I stop payments?

#23Fred, James and I are in the thread and happy to answer any questions about the product and how we built it. There's definitely more detail than made sense to include in the blog post.

#25Why did you develop just for OSX and would you consider supporting other platforms (Linux!) in future?

I'm fascinated by how it looks almost confusingly similar to Mail.app. Of course a lot of apps use a three-pane layout, but most seem to deviate from the standard UI one way or another. I don't mean not to criticise it - it definitely makes it fit right in as a native Mac app, but it makes me interested in your thinking behind it.

#27Given all the 3rd-party integrations available to the web interface (ZenHub, Harvest, to... Grammarly even), what's the point of having a native MacOS-only interface? It seems limiting / backwards to have native applications when there's already a universal web interface. Are there features that the web interface doesn't have?

Well, we had to start somewhere, and macOS is what our team knows best. If there's enough interest, we'd love to support other platforms (including Linux).
