Pricing
Three tiers, one comparison. Anonymous visitors get the full read surface — every status page, every news article, every MCP server detail page, every public bundle. No sign-in wall. A free account adds engagement (like, comment, install, follow), the For You ranker, email alerts, and the combined daily/weekly digest. Pro adds webhooks, multi-destination routing, quiet hours, and unlimited bundles.

Why Pro?
Three things only Pro gives you.
The Free tier covers reading, engagement, and 5 starred-service alerts. Pro adds the operator-grade pieces:
Create bundles in all 3 pillars
Named, shareable stacks — status services, news sources + tags, MCP servers. Public or private. One paste installs a whole MCP stack into Claude Desktop / Cursor.
Your digest, everywhere it needs to go
The combined digest is free to your account email. Pro routes it to up to 5 verified addresses — work inbox, team alias, side-project account — each with its own theme. Quiet-hours-aware.
Real alert pipeline
5 email destinations + 5 webhooks (Discord, Slack, generic HMAC-signed). Severity threshold, per-service mute, per-destination filters, instant emails on new MCP releases.

FAQ
Do I need an account to use Prismix?
No. The full status dashboard, every news article, every RSS feed, and the public REST API are open to anonymous visitors — no sign-in wall, no email-gate. You only need an account when you want to star services, post comments, react with emojis, subscribe to news sources, or receive email alerts.
What's the catch on Free?
No catch. Star up to 5 services, get alerts + the combined daily/weekly digest to your account email, like + comment + install + react on every article and MCP server, subscribe to sources + tags + categories, vote on the roadmap — all free, indefinitely. Pro lifts the caps (more destinations, unlimited stars, effectively-unlimited comments) and adds: unlimited bundles (status / news / MCP, public + private), webhook alerts, quiet hours, multi-destination digest routing, and instant new-server + release notifications.
What's a bundle?
A named, shareable group of items. Status bundles = AI services to monitor as a stack ("my coding setup" = Claude + Cursor + Copilot). News bundles = sources + tags combined into one feed ("AI research deep cuts" = Anthropic blog + arXiv + #paper). MCP bundles = a "Spotify playlist" of MCP servers with a one-paste install for Claude Desktop / Cursor. Anyone can browse public bundles; free accounts can create up to 3 public MCP bundles, Pro unlocks unlimited + private across all three pillars. Private bundles only render for the owner.
What's the free Pro promo?
Right now, Pro is on us — no card, no billing, full access. Sign in, click "Claim free Pro", you're done. Accounts that grab Pro during the promo keep it permanently, even after pricing reverts to $10/mo via Ko-fi.
Can I cancel anytime?
