Changes from v1.3 (May 2026)
This is a re-architecture, not an adjustment. Summary of what changed:
- •Pro tier removed. Custom-package discovery (
hello@kalku.ai) replaces it as the path for users beyond Odogwu / Kalku Mall. - •Solo Lite renamed to Lapo. Solo renamed to Nepo. No price change for these two tiers themselves.
- •Odogwu added as a power-user personal tier with no daily cap.
- •Business renamed to Kalku Market and split — Kalku Mall (10-contributor) added alongside.
- •Lapo and Nepo annual capacities doubled (Lapo 600 → 2,000; Nepo 1,500 → 5,000). Annual prices unchanged.
- •Free tier daily cap raised from 3 → 5 entries; monthly drip raised from 30 → 150 units.
- •Trial caps decoupled from any tier name. Trial limits are configured independently and may be adjusted from
/cook. - •Business subscriptions are now per-business. One Kalku Market or Kalku Mall subscription buys one business account; a user may own as many business subscriptions as they need.
- •Referral programme launched — share your code, you and your friend each receive 200 units when they go paid.
Grandfathering: existing paid wallets continue to enforce against their tier_snapshot_at_issue (the snapshot taken at issue time) until renewal. At renewal each wallet is rebuilt against the new tier definition.
Future changes will be appended below with: date, what changed, reason, effective date, and notice period given.
