Fine print that changes the math

  • Tier prices/limits read from the pricing page's JSON-LD Product offers (2026-06-10). Annual-billing discounts (if any) and which features are à-la-carte add-ons vs included per tier still need verification — Buttondown has historically sold features as +$9/+$29/mo add-ons.
  • Paid-subscription support per tier needs confirmation; recorded as available on paid plans.
  • Pricing assumes at most one email per day to the full list.
