§ Support
Meloze is free. It will stay free.
No ads. No trackers. No upsells, no dark patterns, no “upgrade to remove the watermark.” If a tool here ever saved you a download, a subscription or an afternoon — and you feel like saying so — there's a tip jar. That is the entire pitch.
§ How this is fundedHonest math
- Who pays for the servers?
- Right now, we do — out of pocket. The whole stack is intentionally lean: a single Node host plus ffmpeg and yt-dlp. Most tools run entirely in your browser, which keeps the bill small.
- Why not run a single ad?
- Because every ad is a tracker, every tracker is a pixel, and every pixel ruins the page. We'd rather build slower than become a billboard.
- Will Meloze ever go paid?
- The current tools will always be free. If we add anything that costs us real money per use — say, GPU-backed image upscaling — we'll mark it clearly and price it transparently. No bait-and-switch.
- What does a tip actually do?
- Funds the next tool. Each one we ship is roughly a long weekend of design and engineering — tips help us spend that time without guilt.
