👋 Hello Hunters! Ever since 37signals announced their ONCE thesis, I was intrigued with the idea of getting back to one time payment for software instead of the endless subscriptions based software we have in the SaaS ecosystem. I started collecting the latest news on the subject, and the tools we can pay for once which lead to once.tools. If you like the idea of paying for software once, would be great if you checked out the website, would love your suggestions!

@karthik_tatikonda Been working on the email list to go along with directory, and putting a pretty big focus on SEO to make sure the directory ranks well for software tools. 🤞 Will be keeping a close eye on things to keep things running smoothly.

I am sure this will soon become one stop place to buy one time payment softwares. Glad to be in the list with Youform. How are you planning to monetize it?

@themkmaker Thank you! Exploring a few different options for monetizing: affiliate links where available, newsletter sponsorship and promoting software on the site.

Really amazing idea! Way too much software is a mandatory subscription and doesn't even provide the option of a one-time payment. Also took the liberty to submit our own app :P

That's a fun idea. Kind of wild that we need this. Checking it out now :) PS: maybe don't make the logo like BBC Radio One though!

So great to see others also think this way. Not all software has to be subscriptions. I love that you built this and I will definitely use it to find great one time payment software!
