Pricing

One plan, three ways to pay

There are no feature tiers. Every plan is all of Wakaru — dual subtitles, AI word alignment, pronunciation, flashcards, sync — and every plan starts with the same free week.

✓ 7-day free trial on every plan — no card to start, nothing charged until you choose to subscribe.

✓ 14-day money-back guarantee on your first purchase: email [email protected] and it’s refunded, no questions asked.

✓ Cancel anytime; your plan runs to the end of the period you paid for.

Prices in US dollars. Sales tax or VAT is added where the law requires it.

Why paid

Where the money goes

Every episode you watch is word-aligned by an AI model, and every word you hover is spoken by one. That costs us real money per episode — a subscription keeps it running without ads, analytics, or selling anything about you. One person builds Wakaru; your $6.99 is the whole business model.

Questions

Billing, honestly

What happens when the trial ends?

Wakaru stops working until you subscribe — it tells you plainly in the extension, nothing is charged silently. Your saved words are never locked away: the word list, flashcards, and exports keep working even with no active plan.

Do prices differ between plans in features?

No. The longer plans are the same product at a discount — you’re just deciding how far ahead you want to pay.

How do I cancel?

From your account page once subscribed, or by emailing [email protected]. Cancelling stops the renewal; you keep access until the paid period ends.

Is a Crunchyroll subscription included?

No — Wakaru runs on top of your own Crunchyroll access and is not affiliated with Crunchyroll. Free ad-supported episodes work too.
