Where your donations go
Knyaw is free, and it always will be. Donations are the only thing keeping it alive. Here is honestly where they go.
What your gift pays for
- Hosting and the tools that keep the app online
- Paying native speakers for their time verifying every word
- Building new lessons, words, and the dictionary
- Recording native-speaker audio, once there is enough to start (the biggest future cost)
What it never does
- No ads, ever
- No selling your data
- No paywall — learning stays free for everyone
- No locking lessons behind an account
Knyaw is a small, independent project. Donations are modest, so every single gift genuinely matters and goes a long way. As it grows, we will keep this page honest about where the money goes.
