Pricing FAQ

How much does a wind load calculator subscription cost?

Plans start at $35/month (Starter), with Pro at $59/month and Premium at $149/month. Annual billing saves about 20%. Every plan starts with a 7-day free trial — no credit card required.

Which ASCE edition do the calculators use?

Is there a free version?

Yes — the free wind load calculator returns the ASCE 7-22 design pressure for a single wall component by ZIP code, no signup. For multi-component schedules, Excel export, and permit-ready reports you need a paid subscription.

Are Florida HVHZ and Miami-Dade overrides included?

Yes. Florida High-Velocity Hurricane Zone (HVHZ) and county overrides such as Miami-Dade (175 mph), Broward, and Collier are built in and applied automatically per Florida Building Code R301.2(7).

Can I cancel anytime?
