The accounts, the licences, the checkout and the webhooks are Toolaby’s to host. Your extension asks one question: may this person do this?

The paywall your users see

A real popup, live on this page: the plans, the sign-in, and a purchase that unlocks. Press a plan.

Every sale, as it happens

Gross and net, refunds and the way from install to purchase, the moment Stripe says so.

Bring the buyers you have

Already selling? Move your subscribers from your old Stripe account with their cards, and bring one-time buyers in from a CSV. They unlock by signing in with the address they paid with.

Build with an agent

Or say it to your coding agent.

Toolaby’s MCP server, skills and commands give your agent the job: it sets up the plans, gates the paid code, checks its own work and proves on Test that the paid feature unlocks, before you load it.

How it works

From a folder to a sale, in three steps.

No backend to host, no webhook handler to write, no licence server to keep alive. Toolaby is all three.

Start free

Make it and price it

Name the tool in the dashboard, say what is free and what is paid, and set the prices. They are made on your Stripe account.

Access

Who can use Word Counter, and what they get before paying.

Require an account

Everything freePlans add features.

Free usesPer device, then a plan.

Nothing freeA plan before anything.

Anyone can use Word Counter. It is free; a plan adds what the Features grid gives it.

Wire your extension

Pick your extension’s folder in the dashboard, or run one command in it: the client and the manifest keys go in, whatever builds it. Or ask your coding agent to.

Waiting for your extension

Wire Word Counter into your extension

What stays yours

Your money, your buyers, your name.

Toolaby stands between your extension and Stripe. Never between you and the people who pay you.

Paid into your Stripe.

Every sale is a charge on your own Stripe account and pays out on your schedule. Toolaby never holds your money.

How it works

Yours to take with you.

One click exports your customers, licences, subscriptions and your signing key, so installed extensions keep working on a server of your own.

How it works

Your name on every page.

Sign-in, checkout and the account page wear your logo and colours, in your buyer’s language. On Pro, on your own domain, with mail from it and no Toolaby name.

How it works

Pricing

0.5% of a sale, or $25 a month per workspace.

Hobby takes 0.5% of each sale, at payment time, and nothing in a month nothing sells. Pro is a flat $25 a month per workspace with no fee, and puts your name where ours was.

A workspace is one business: its tools, its Stripe account, its brand. Most developers need one. Each workspace has its own plan.

Your sales in a month$2,000

$0$10,000+

On Hobby: $10; the 0.5% fee
On Pro: $25; a month

At $2,000 a month, Hobby costs $15 less. Pro costs less from $5,000 a month. Stripe’s own fee is Stripe’s on either plan.

Test is free on both: every feature on, nothing billed.

Questions

Before you start.

Answered the way the docs answer them. Nothing here is a promise the code does not keep.

Start free hello@toolaby.app

No. Toolaby hosts the accounts, the licences, the checkout and the webhooks. Your extension talks to it through toolaby.js, which the command line writes into your folder, and verifies licences on the device.
