Try it for free. Pay when it's earning its keep.

Yoshi's pricing follows one rule: you should see real value before you pay. You can build a complete site and see it live for free; you pay when you want it on your own domain, the badge gone, and the caretaking turned on.

Numbers below are directional, not final — pricing isn't locked yet. We'd rather be upfront about the shape of the offer, and honest about what's free vs paid, than nail down a number we'll revise.

How the gating actually works (it's not a wall)

Most of what makes a Yoshi site great is standard — free for everyone: the full page depth, the individuation, the speed, the base SEO, a live address, and a look at your dashboard. We don't cripple the product to sell it back to you. Three things sit above the line:

1. The pay gate is your own domain. Connecting yourbusiness.com is the clean, universal "now it's mine, now I'll pay" moment. It's also the natural place to unlock the rest of the paid value, because a custom-domain user is a committed user.
2. Premium capabilities unlock with paid — the things that make a site alive and measured: live edits + iterative rebuild (change anything, regenerate just what's affected), native analytics (our own, built-in — not a Google-Analytics paste-in), the scoring + x-ray tools as a real API + deep dashboard widgets, and Yoshi tending the site for you. Many of these are proven already on our first client (Arzadon) and generalize to every tenant.
3. Resource-heavy actions are metered, not removed, on free. Rebuilds and frequent re-scoring/x-rays cost real compute, so free gets a fair quota (enough to feel the value), and paid gets generous headroom. You're never blocked from the capability — just asked to upgrade when you lean on the expensive ones a lot.

The principle: standard is free and genuinely good; you pay for your domain, for aliveness + measurement, and for heavy usage — never for the basic right to a good site.

What's genuinely free

The free tier isn't a crippled demo. You get the whole site — all the pages, the real individuation, the speed and SEO — live on a Yoshi address, indefinitely. We'd rather have a live site of yours out in the world (carrying a tasteful badge) than wall off the thing that proves Yoshi works.

For builders & agencies — the Studio

If your business is making sites, Yoshi is your factory. Stand up many client sites, manage them from one portfolio dashboard, put them on your clients' domains, and run the whole thing under your own brand. Pricing here is about volume + white-label, not per-seat.

For developers — the API

Yoshi's capabilities are also an API (the performance audit endpoint is the first one live). Build Yoshi into your own tools, with keys, tiered limits, and clear docs.
