Software should be owned,
not rented.
We help people escape the subscription trap and find tools they can buy once, use forever, or run locally.
Our Mission
Too many great tools have moved to subscription models, locking users into recurring payments they don't need. We believe you should be able to pay once and own your software forever. That's why we built Escape Subscriptions — a search engine and directory for finding one-time purchase, open-source, offline, and lifetime alternatives to subscription software.
