No Subscription
Pay once. Keep writing. No monthly or annual renewal.
AuthorsDrop is not a monthly writing plan. You try the full product for 30 days, then pay $89 USD once (or your local equivalent) for lifetime access on that account - web, Mac, and iPhone included.
Why AuthorsDrop has no subscription
We do not believe writers should have to keep paying simply to continue using the tool in which they create their work. Long-form writing takes time. A novel can take years, a screenplay can pass through countless drafts, and a dissertation can follow a writer through a large part of their academic life.
AuthorsDrop was built around a different idea: try the full workspace first, then pay once if it suits the way you work. Pay once. Keep writing. No monthly charge and no annual renewal.
What “lifetime access” means
One unlock for your AuthorsDrop account. You keep editing, importing, compiling, and using AuthorsDrop Press without a renewing bill. We don’t move paid users onto a cheaper “legacy” tier and a new subscription later - the offer is pay once after the trial.
What happens if you don’t pay
When the trial ends, editing locks until you pay or redeem a friend code. Your projects stay saved on your device and available through Secure Sync. Nothing is deleted for waiting. You can come back later and unlock the same account.
Your files aren’t held hostage
Your working copy stays on your device, while Secure Sync keeps an encrypted cross-device copy - not on AuthorsDrop servers. Even without an active unlock, you still have the files in that location. Set up Save location early so a new machine can reconnect to the same folder.
Where the one-time payment happens
- Website: authorsdrop.com/billing (Stripe) after you sign in
- Mac App Store: In-App Purchase for lifetime access, which unlocks the same account on the web
- Already paid elsewhere: sign in - you should not need to buy a second time
Friend codes
If someone shares a friend code with you, redeem it in the app. That skips payment entirely and still isn’t a subscription.
