Pricing

Simple pricing, in public.

Common questions
Is this real or too cheap?

Early pilot pricing. If scale grows, we handle it by direct conversation — not hidden fees.

Are volunteers and fosters included?

Yes. No seat limits. No per-user pricing. Add anyone without penalty.

Is the adopter dashboard required?

No. Browsing and applying are free. The dashboard is an optional upgrade.

Do shelters get direct onboarding?

Founder-led. One workflow first. No migration weekend, no forced cutover.

What does exceptional usage mean?

Handled by conversation, not a hidden fee. Stated plainly so there are no surprises.

Is this price permanent?

Pilot pricing. Final pricing will stay shelter-first, simple, and respectful of nonprofit realities.

Why not per-seat

Placement is a team sport. Seat pricing taxes the team.

One animal's placement touches a director, an adoption coordinator, a foster lead, a reviewer, volunteers, and the adopter contact. Per-seat pricing charges more for exactly the coordination the system exists to improve.

Per-seat model: 6 × a per-user fee, and rising.
WhiskerMatch: one organization price — $20/month, no seat limits.
