How to support Can

Can is free, and it is going to stay free. There is no paid tier, no trial clock, and no feature waiting behind a payment. Nothing on this page changes what you can do with a board.

If Can is useful to you and you would like to chip in, a little support goes a long way, and it is very much appreciated.

Where the money goes

Can has two running costs.

• Hosting. The app, the database behind the live sync, the REST API, the hosted MCP server, and the embeddings behind semantic search all run on paid cloud infrastructure, and the bill grows with use.
• Coding agents. Most of Can is built with AI coding agents working tickets on Can's own board.

Support helps offset those two bills.

Buy me a coffee

The simplest way to help is a coffee on Ko-fi: ko-fi.com/donheppner.

Other ways to help

Support does not have to cost anything.

• Send feedback. The Feedback button in the workspace sidebar posts to Can's feedback board, which is read. A bug report or a rough edge you noticed is worth as much as a coffee.
• Tell someone. If Can suits a team you know, point them at can.randomfact.com.

Thank you for using Can.
