Free forever. Unlock once if you want the ad-free path.

Everything is free. Ads are the tradeoff. The unlock just removes them.

Cropbox does not meter edits, sell credit packs, or push you into a subscription funnel. You can use the editor on your device, stay offline as long as you want, and optionally pay once to make the interface ad-free.

Why this works

The browser does the work, so the business model stays simple.

Server-first editors have to recover GPU cost on every background removal and upscale. Cropbox ships the runtime once, keeps your files local, and only asks for support if you want the ad-free experience.

Cropbox stays useful without paying. The unlock is there for people who want a cleaner workspace and want to support the product.
