Definitely understand where you’re coming from. The main reason we decided to go with a monthly pricing model is that we see Ditto as a tool that spans the product development process and roles of a company. Compared to localization management systems, which might come into play mainly at the end of a project, we’ve seen pretty consistent usage of Ditto across the drafting, design, development, and post-launch phases with our current customers. Oftentimes, designers and writers will use our Figma integration in the early stages of a project (taking advantage of the text component library to reuse existing text) and then other stakeholders like legal or marketing will come in to Ditto approve/review copy. In parallel, devs can fetch the latest copy from their command-line whenever there are updates as they’re building. Post-launch, updates to copy can be made in Ditto, and then easily pulled in by engineers.

Yeah, I understand. The clients of mine I'm thinking of are small, non-technical companies. They would absolute love something like this, but they're just not developing and redoing stuff as much as they'd need to justify this expense (in their minds).
