  VercelFrontend cloud platform — integrated Next.js deploys and CDN

  Blocked bots no longer turn into surprise CDN bills. This directly lowers the risk of scrapers, credential stuffing, and abused API endpoints on small apps.

  • —Traffic denied, challenged, or rate-limited by Vercel Firewall now waives CDN Requests and Fast Data Transfer charges.
  • —DDoS mitigation was already unlimited and free; this change covers non-DDoS abuse handled by custom rules, managed rules, and rate limits.
  • —The waiver applies automatically to every project using Vercel Firewall; no config change or migration required.
  • —Product pages, login routes, and expensive API endpoints are the obvious places to add stricter rules now.

  Premium pricing doubled while the “Always free” promise disappeared from site copy. Treat critical SaaS promises as mutable, especially after leadership changes.

  • —Premium moved to 2x pricing. Small in dollars, but password management is sticky infrastructure.
  • —The “Always free” wording was removed through website and content edits, not a big launch announcement.
  • —Long-time CEO Michael Crandell shifted to an advisory role in February; new M&A background raises acquisition-risk sensitivity.

  RevenueCatSubscription billing infra — unified app and web subscriptions

  Web subscriptions can now use percentage discounts, promo codes, and win-back offers. Useful for churn recovery and price testing without wiring discount logic yourself.

  • —Percentage-off discounts and promo codes now apply to RevenueCat web subscribers, reducing custom billing work.
  • —Win-back offers target cancelled or lapsed users. That gives churn recovery a built-in path instead of ad hoc email-only campaigns.
  • —The scope is web billing, not App Store pricing. Best fit is a paid web checkout where discount tests can move quickly.
