Pricing Issues Reported by Users

Why is Reflect so expensive for a notes app?

Reviewers say Reflect Classic costs about $10/month billed annually ($120/year), with no permanent free plan, and call that steep next to the free Obsidian and Logseq. Reflect Open is free on Mac, but the iPhone/iPad app lists Reflect Pro at $9.99/month or $99/year. AI in Open also requires your own paid API key.

Reflect AI limits and bring-your-own-key costs

Classic's built-in AI is capped at 10k tokens/day on free accounts and 100k tokens/day on paid accounts. Going past that needs your own OpenAI or Anthropic API key with separate billing. In Reflect Open, AI only works with your own key (OpenAI, Anthropic, Google or OpenRouter), which you must enter on each device.
