Questions
Can I switch plans?
You can cancel either plan from your account and keep listening until the end of the period you paid for. Moving between monthly and yearly isn't available yet, so to change plan, pick the other one after your paid period ends.
Does paid audio sound better?
No. Free and paid listeners hear the same generated chapter audio. Paid plans remove the daily listening limit; they do not change quality or unlock voice choices.
What is the yearly plan?
The Listener plan billed once a year: $49 a year, renewing every year until you cancel. It is the same unlimited listening as the monthly plan. Save $11 a year compared with monthly.
Is there a lifetime option?
Yes. Founder Lifetime is $99 once: unlimited listening with no renewals, limited to the first 50 listeners. Email hello@arcwave.app and we will send you a PayPal payment link.
I bought Lifetime: does anything change?
No. Lifetime access you already bought stays valid; there is nothing to renew or cancel.
Can I choose narrator voices?
Not yet. Arcwave currently ships one selected narration style per chapter. Voice choice is not part of any paid offer today.
