Pricing

free stays free

All 15 file generators stay free forever, with no signup and nothing uploaded. That is not changing. These are the two things we are considering charging for — and we would rather find out whether anyone wants them before building the billing.

Break packs

$29 one-time

All 81 adversarial fixtures across six formats, yours permanently, plus everything added in the next 12 months.

  • CSV, JSON, XML, YAML, XLSX and ZIP packs
  • Every fixture documented with expected behaviour
  • Damage report export for pull requests
  • Yours forever — updates for 12 months

API access

$19 per month

Generate files and pull fixtures from your own scripts and CI, instead of a browser.

  • All generators and fixture packs over HTTP
  • Deterministic output — same seed, same bytes
  • Run the adversarial suite in CI
  • Fair-use request limits

What stays free, permanently

  • Every file generator — CSV, JSON, XML, YAML, SQL, PDF, DOCX, XLSX, images, audio, video, archives
  • The schema builder
  • A sample of 81 adversarial fixtures from each Break pack
  • Everything client-side, with no account

Why there is no buy button yet

Because we do not know if anyone wants this. Break launched days ago and the API does not exist. Building licence keys, metering and checkout before a single person has said they would pay is the expensive way to find out.

So the prices above are real, and the button is honest: it puts you on a list rather than taking your money. If enough people join, we build it and you get in at that price. If nobody does, we will have saved everyone the trouble — and the free tools carry on regardless.

Questions we can answer now

Will the free generators ever be paywalled?
No. They are the reason people find BlobForge, and they cost almost nothing to run because everything happens in your browser.
Why is Break one-time but the API monthly?
Fixture packs are files. Once you have downloaded them you have them, so charging monthly for continued access to a folder on your disk would be dishonest. The API is a running service with ongoing cost, so it is priced like one.
What does “yours forever” mean for Break?
Everything released in your first 12 months stays yours permanently, with no renewal needed. Renewing only buys packs added after that window — you never lose what you paid for.
