Can I give you some unsolicited feedback?

- On Firefox 27x the "Most Popular" note is overlapped on top of the pricing, making both hard to read

- the jump from free to lite seems a little large... is there no room for, say, a $5/mo plan?

- after authorizing Twitter in order to sign up, the site blanked out and I had to go back to ritetag.com manually, after which I was logged in

- I can't tell a difference between the colors for "tweets with low chance" and "tweets with high chance". I'm assuming one is orange and one is green, but like a sizable minority of your users, I'm essentially unable to distinguish between the two effectively given the shades you've chosen.

- Related, "tweets with a high chance of being discovered" wraps to the far left, instead of just below (so it looks like on the other side we have "tweets with no chance of being discovered discovered"

Otherwise, I'm looking forward to exploring more -- interesting concept, and I personally haven't seen this done before.

Thanks a lot! We will check the Firefox issues and learn more about color-blindness to make RiteTag more accessible.

Regarding the cheaper plan, we'll need to think it through as small amounts are not profitable due fixed costs per transaction.

Be sure you save that great comment, Mr. CTO. That's why we're in Hacker News; the people who help us see where we're in need of improvement. (Thanks, @binxbolling!)

In regards to plan cheaper than our "Lite" plan, kindly keep in mind that we have hard costs. Scaling up to meet the needs of API customers, and also, recaculations on the nearly 2 million Hashtag Scans that our users reply on... recalculations on millions of hashtags as for their likelihood of leading to discovery, this take a lot of access. Further, we provide actual analytics that help RiteTaggers learn from their efforts. I don't believe you'll find anything nearly as cheap as our Pro plan - let alone the Lite plan - that does anything close to this. When you're in there and do some smart-tagged tweets from RiteTag, you'll see this in Stats and also My Top-performing tags (Tweet Composer). But do let me know @osakasaul if you still believe we're costly.

Obligatory Bitcoin reference... Check out integrating with Coinbase?
Founder, here. Few ask for bitcoin for payment, but the bigger truth is that when we need to show investors that people see value, we actually can't risk being told "right. people paid you with something that cost them nada to acquire." This is not my stance on bitcoin, but we do need to respect the big wigs' decision-leading standpoints.
