Frequently asked questions

Which plan should I start on?

Pilcrow has two kinds of plan: account plans and site plans. Account plans (Solo and Studio) get you the workspace, the dashboard, and the builder. Site plans put a project on the open web with your own domain. New accounts land on the free Solo plan.

Find your plan

What does hosting on Pilcrow actually get me?

Every hosted project runs on infrastructure sized for millions of daily page views and answers in well under 100ms. Patching, uptime, and scaling are ours to worry about, which is the point of paying someone else for hosting.

How do I point a domain at a Pilcrow project?

Any site plan lets you attach a domain you already own, verify it from the dashboard, and push the project live in a single click. DNS records are generated for you.

Custom domains

Can I build on Pilcrow for free?

Yes — free, with no clock on it. You only pay when you want to unlock the advanced features or put a project on your own domain. No card is needed to start, and there is no trial to run out.

Will everything still work if I host the export myself?

Site search, form handling, and spam protection all run on our side, so an exported build will need somewhere else to send that data — either your own endpoint or an embedded widget. Store elements do not survive the export either.

How do I duplicate, transfer, or delete a project?

What you can do depends on the account plan you hold and how many project slots are left on it. Duplicating, handing a project to another workspace, and deleting one for good are each a few steps, written out in the Academy lesson.
