Pricing
One app. Your radio. Operate.
RigPlane Pro is the polished desktop app for IP-connected ham radios — audio bridge, CW console, RC-28 support, and WSJT-X integration included. Open beta is the current primary path; launch pricing remains here for planning.
No subscription needed to use the app.
RigPlane Pro is a one-time $79 desktop license. It's yours. The desktop features you bought keep working after the included update year ends — see Renewal . The optional $49 yearly pass pays for additional services and updates beyond the first year; you do not need it to keep using the app.
No monthly fee is needed to run the app. No "pay or your station goes dark" clause. No RigPlane cloud you depend on at home.
