Pricing philosophy

Why is it free?

We are asked this question frequently. Mostly by ourselves, late at night.

  1. Buttons want to be pressed.

    A button that is not pressed is merely a rectangle with ambitions. Charging for presses would reduce the number of presses, which would be cruel to the button.

  2. We did the maths.

    The marginal cost of a press is approximately 0.0024 joules of your energy and zero of ours. After extensive modelling, our finance department recommended a price of €0.00, then asked to be reassigned.

  3. There is no business model.

    We considered advertising, subscriptions, a premium press tier and selling your data. We rejected them in that order, the last one with visible disgust. We do not collect your data, so we could not sell it even in a moment of weakness.

  4. It is a matter of principle.

    Some things should simply be available to everyone: clean air, public libraries, and a beautifully engineered button. We cannot help with the first two.

  5. It must never become a premium feature.

    This is written into our founding documents, which consist of this paragraph. We are not monsters.

Questions

Frequently asked questions.

What happens when I press the button?

The button goes down. Then it comes back up. A number goes up by one. Depending on your settings, there may be sparks, a sound, and a brief feeling of accomplishment.

Is there a catch?

No. We looked very hard for one so that we could remove it.

Where are my statistics stored?

Only in this browser’s local storage. There is no server, no account and no analytics. Clearing your site data resets everything, which some people find freeing.

Is there a global leaderboard?

No. A leaderboard would need a server and your data, and we would rather not have either. Your only competition is your past self, who was, frankly, not trying very hard.

Can I use it with a keyboard or a screen reader?

Yes. Tab to the button and press Space or Enter. Screen readers hear a calm summary after you pause, not an announcement for every single press. Reduced-motion and high-contrast preferences are respected.

Why does a button need a physics engine?

It doesn’t. That has never stopped us.
