mdview: free reading, Pro trials and a price discussion
Opening README files and AI-exported documents quickly is mdview’s starting point. The maker’s account also separates free use, Pro trials and actual purchases.
Free reading and paid enhancements
mdview’s creator wants README files and AI-exported documents to open quickly. The author reports growing installations but insufficient returns for full-time work, prompting a discussion of Pro pricing and checkout.
The post describes free reading and the first 100 Pro uses as trials, with editing, diagrams, formulas and export enhancements. The author also acknowledged an unclear checkout entrance. Earlier prices, later notices and actual sales outcomes require separate dates and evidence.
Separate the original discussion from the later notice
Free reading, Pro trials and purchases are different stages. Cumulative installations are not completed trials and cannot alone establish conversion for paid features.
Installations, revenue and payer counts are self-reported, without analytics or accounts. A September 7 capture announced a September 12 price change; this article does not establish today’s price or its outcome.
