Season Two & Beyond: Founding Member

$39/year

Founding member pricing — locked in for life.

After your free season, everything from year one continues — and Percy starts connecting the dots. Pattern recognition across seasons. Proactive reminders when something from last year is relevant again. Weather-correlated insights that connect your outcomes to the conditions that shaped them. Year-over-year comparisons in your Migration Report. All future features included as they’re built.

$39/year — locked in, for as long as you stay subscribed. The price will rise as Percy grows. Yours won’t. No credit card required. Your data is yours regardless.

That’s about what you’d spend at the garden center before you’ve made it past the annuals.

If you sign up in spring or early summer, you’re free through December 31. Sign up any other time and you get a minimum of 90 days. Either way, you get a full season with Percy before anyone asks you to pay.

Everything your garden needs. Nothing it doesn’t.

It’s not just storage.

Percy remembers so you don’t have to. No flipping through pages looking for the note about when you planted the garlic, assuming the notebook still exists and the relevant page isn’t the one with the grocery list. Ask Percy and it knows. Percy handles the organizing, the filing, and the remembering.

It notices patterns you’d miss. Starting in year two, Percy connects the dots across seasons. “Last year aphids showed up this week.” “Your zinnias consistently did better in the west bed.” “Your best tomato year started with a wet June and deep watering in July.” Percy correlates your observations with the actual weather conditions that shaped each season. A notebook can record observations. It cannot read them back to you at the right moment, and it definitely doesn’t know what the temperature was. It would be terribly creepy if it did.

It gets more valuable every season. The longer you use Percy, the more it knows. By year three, Percy has spotted patterns across multiple seasons that no gardener would catch on their own, including connections between your outcomes and the weather that produced them. The depth of knowledge is something you’ve never had access to and something you’ll wonder how you ever lived without. It just keeps getting better. And it’s yours.

It works wherever you garden. Add an observation while you’re outside; come back to the Nest on your laptop and watch your season take shape. The Nest is Percy’s desktop view — a living portrait of your garden built from everything you’ve told it: a narrative summary of the month, a Moments feed of every observation with a photo attached, and a full plant roster with every entry and every photo in one place. Not just sync. A different, richer way to see your garden. No lost notebooks. No rained-on compost-smudged pages. No notes that just say “plant zucchini???” with no further context.

It watches the weather for you. Every observation is automatically tagged with real weather conditions. And Percy watches the forecast for things that matter to your garden: frost, heat, heavy rain, dry stretches. You get a heads-up before it arrives, not a generic alert from a weather app that doesn’t know you have tomatoes in the ground.

It doesn’t sell your data. No ads. No selling your observations. Your garden is private. Percy answers to you, not to investors, because there aren’t any.

Why sign up now

Help shape what we build.

Founding members have real influence. Feedback gets read, and the product gets built around what real gardeners actually need rather than what seemed good in a meeting. (That’s the benefit of being a solo founder — there are no meetings. Unless…everything is a meeting. Oh god, that’s depressing. I think I need to sit down.)

Later users get a polished product. Early users help create it, which is either appealing or exhausting depending on your disposition.

Lock in your lifetime price.

Founding members pay $39/year, locked in, for as long as you stay subscribed. The price will rise for others as Percy grows. Yours won’t. No credit card required. Your data is yours regardless. Along with the feeling of superiority.

Support indie software.

Percy isn’t venture-backed. Your subscription supports one person doing careful, deliberate work to support his family (and his seed catalog habit). No ads, no data mining, no pressure to add features that serve retention metrics over gardeners. When you pay for Percy, you’re voting for the kind of software you want to exist.

Common questions about pricing

Nope. Create an account and start using Percy for free. We won’t ask for payment until you’ve tried it out and decided it’s worth it.

In January, after your first Migration Report arrives. You’ll have tried it, talked to it, and seen everything Percy captured across your whole season. And then you can decide whether to bring that history into the new year. No pressure, no surprise charges. January is when gardeners are deep in seed catalogs and thinking about next season — it’s the right moment to ask.

If your first season produced a small handful of observations, that’s not enough to show you what Percy can actually do. We’d rather invite you to try again next spring, still free, than ask you to pay for something that hasn’t proven its value yet. That’s more honest, and more how we want to do things.

It stays yours. Read-only access to everything from your free season, exportable anytime. You just won’t get year-two features like pattern recognition, proactive reminders, or year-over-year comparisons. If you change your mind later, everything is right where you left it.

Yes. No contracts, no cancellation fees. Your data stays yours either way.

Yes. Email hello@percy.garden within 30 days of your first payment for a full refund, no questions asked.

Because Percy works across a full season, not month-to-month. Annual billing matches the rhythm of gardening. Monthly billing may come later.

Email hello@percy.garden. We’re not trying to exclude anyone from being able to make the most of their garden. We’ll work something out.

Your garden has always had a story. Percy is the first thing that’s ever been able to tell it.

Percy doesn’t just remember your garden. It changes how you see it.

Free for your first growing season. Then $39/year as a Founding Member, locked in for as long as you stay subscribed. The price will rise as Percy grows. Yours won’t. No credit card required. Your data is yours regardless.
