Prices as of April 2026. Updated monthly.
Your Pro license validates against our server exactly once, at activation. After that,Recall works offline forever. If clauderecall.com ever disappears, every existing license stays valid. We'll publish the validation secret if we ever shut down, so you're never stranded.
One-time. You pay $49.69 once and own it for life. There is no monthly bill, no renewal, no expiry. Lifetime updates, the dead-man clause, and every personal-use feature we ship in the future are included. Personal Pro will never become a subscription.
Yes. The ~/.recall/ directory is identical between tiers. Paying the license unlocks features; it does not migrate data.
Stripe, Apple Pay, and Google Pay. Stripe handles global tax as our payment processor. No crypto at launch.
Yes, up to three machines you personally control (laptop, desktop, travel machine). Activation records a one-way SHA-256 hash of each machine so re-activating on the same machine is free. Beyond three machines, activation is rejected. Enterprise seats are explicitly counted per the contract.
We track activations per license key and review abuse manually. Each license is meant for one user across their personal machines. Once activated, the key works offline forever. Enterprise seats are counted explicitly on the team server.
Every session, every note, every tag lives on your own machine under ~/.recall/. The daemon binds to 127.0.0.1 only, so even devices on your own network cannot reach it. We never see your session content. The only outbound calls are a daily license-revocation check (after Pro activation) and an optional install ping you can decline at install time. No analytics, no account. API keys or secrets you paste into a Claude Code terminal are auto-redacted before anything touches the index.
Our moat is not the indexing. It is the context re-injection, tags, notes, team sharing, cross-AI support, MCP server, and the fact that your data stays local forever. Anthropic cannot build the "even if we disappear" promise because they are a cloud company. If they do ship something and it is better than ours, your Pro license still works offline forever.
