- All your devices, counted as one person

Pricing
Pay for space and people. Never with your data.
We have no ads and no data business to subsidise the price, and by design we can't read what you store. The subscription pays for the service itself. Here is how it will work. Prices are announced at launch, and the waitlist hears first.
How we earn
Paid for by you, not your data
We don't show ads, sell data or train anything on your files. Subscriptions will be our only income, so the price covers the service itself.
How much space
Storage sized for real life
Most people keep well under a terabyte. We're sizing plans so you don't pay for space you'll never fill.
If something goes wrong
Nothing held hostage
If a payment fails, you can still read and edit everything on your devices. Only new uploads pause until it's sorted.
Plans
One for you. One for the people you live with.
Family
For a household, paid per person
Price per person announced with family plans
- Everything in Personal, for each person
- One shared pool of storage for the household
- Seats for grown-ups and kids, plus guests
- See who uses how much space, never what they keep
- Shared albums and folders in one step
Family plans follow shortly after launch. Plans for teams and organisations come later.
Questions
Before you ask.
Why not just make it cheap?
We don't earn from what you store, and by design we can't read it, so the subscription has to pay for storage, sync and the people who look after it.
Will there be a free plan?
We haven't decided yet. Whatever we choose, people on the waitlist will hear about it first.
Who handles my payment?
Payments run through Polar, which acts as the merchant of record: the seller named on your invoice. They handle VAT and invoices, and your card details go to them, never to us.
What if I want to leave?
You'll be able to export your files, sheets, photos and notes in formats other apps can read, then cancel. There's no exit fee, and your work stays readable on your devices.
Early access
Hear the prices first.
Leave your email and we'll write when Pastel Cloud opens to its first members. Early places go to people who care about owning their work, and we'll let them in a few at a time.
