Preserve these limitations and costs: subscriber caps (2,500 Free, 100,000 Lite, 250,000 Pro, Enterprise above), no native SMS, Send API excluded from Free, branding retained on Free and Lite, ad monetization averaging about $39/mo, and Stripe's 2.9% + $0.30 per transaction processing fee despite beehiiv's 0% take rate on paid subscriptions and digital products. Do not describe the platform as free overall: the Free plan has limits and paid tiers start at $49/mo (Lite) and $95/mo (Pro) on yearly billing.
