i am sorry, but paywall IS NOT your problem

My paywall makes $4,000+ a month across my apps.

Some apps have 5% conversion. Others have 10%.

Niche + pricing >> paywall design.

Paywall offering lifetime access for $29.99 or a monthly plan for $4.99 with a one-week free trial

I want to sell lifetime access: people pay once, and I get the money up front.

Monthly gives people another way in if they aren't ready for that purchase.

Your footage never leaves your Mac.

ClipsPal transcribes on your Mac and sends only the transcript to Claude Code, Codex or OpenCode. With the free local model, nothing leaves your Mac.
