What it actually costs
Intro pricing shown — see the renewal note for what you'll pay after the introductory term. We don't hide the second-act price.

Pro is a subscription billed monthly ($12/mo) or yearly ($99/yr = $8.25/mo billed annually). Lifetime plans (Individual $29, Agency $79) are one-time payments sold on AppSumo; Free plan is $
What to check before paying once for TidyCal
A lifetime deal is a bet that the product outlives the break-even point. The discount is the least interesting part of it.
When it breaks even
At $29 once against $12 a month, the deal pays for itself after 3 months — 0.3 years. Everything after that is the saving, if the product is still running.
Whose lifetime it is
“Lifetime” means the lifetime of the product, not yours. If it shuts down or is acquired and folded in, the deal ends with it — which is why the vendor's age and funding matter more here than in any other purchase.
What the tier actually includes
Lifetime tiers are usually capped on the thing you will need most — seats, projects, contacts or sends. Check the cap against a year from now, not today, because upgrading later is rarely at deal prices.
The refund window
Most lifetime-deal marketplaces give you a fixed period to change your mind. Diarise it, and spend that window using the product properly rather than intending to.
These are the checks we apply across lifetime deals, in the same order, so two pages can be compared line for line.
How much does TidyCal really cost?
Our calculation from the vendor's published prices — not a figure the vendor advertises.
A free plan exists, but the limits decide when you must pay. The real question is which limit you hit first. TidyCal offers a forever-free plan, one-time Lifetime purchases (sold on AppSumo), and a paid Pro subscription available monthly or billed annually; cost does not scale by seats.
This is a one-time purchase, so the price does not change with team size.
- The vendor does not publish a renewal price, so three-year totals assume today's price holds.
Work out your own cost
- Flat rate — the price does not change with team size.
- Billed annually at $8.25 per month equivalent.
