Refine offers a perpetual use grammar checking service on a buyout basis.
Refine breaks away from the subscription pricing model commonly used by major grammar checkers and innovates with a one-time purchase strategy. Users pay a one-time fee for perpetual use of the software, including support for all major version updates. This business model avoids the ongoing expenses common to traditional SaaS services and saves users a lot of money in the long run.
Compared to subscription-based tools such as Grammarly, which charge on a yearly basis, Refine's payment structure is particularly well suited to a user group that is looking for value for money. According to market research, the total cost for a professional user to use a subscription-based grammar tool for 3-5 years can typically be up to 5-8 times the single purchase price of Refine. What's more, the buyout system exempts users from the risk of price increases or sudden discontinuation of the service. It is also worth noting that Refine offers a free trial version that allows users to fully test all features before purchasing, a "try before you buy" strategy that further protects consumers.
As a side note, while Refine is available on a buyout basis, the developers are committed to providing ongoing feature optimizations and macOS compatibility updates to purchased users, a "major version update" strategy that balances commercial sustainability with user experience.
