Parents pay more than $99 a year for writing instruction that delivers less. Here is the honest comparison.
| Option | Price | Coach | Portfolio | Verified | Setup |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| ScribeFoundry | $99/yr per student | Zero setup | |||
| One hour with a human tutor | $30 to $80 per hour | Scheduling, travel | |||
| Writing curriculum supplement | $50 to $200 per year | Workbook, self-paced | |||
| WordPress hosting | $50 to $100 per year | Painful setup, ongoing maintenance |
Prices above are typical market ranges, not ScribeFoundry promotions. Tutoring rates vary widely by region and qualification. Curriculum and hosting figures reflect common options in the homeschool market as of 2026.
Your account goes dormant. Your student's subdomain displays a polite inactive notice, and all of their work, coach history, and process logs stay preserved. Reactivate at any time and everything returns instantly. Nothing is deleted on cancellation.
Yes. Add a student at any time and Stripe prorates the additional cost against your current billing cycle. The new student gets a full 30-day trial on their profile regardless of your plan's billing date.
No hard cap. Family accounts can have as many students as you want, each as a separate line item on your subscription. Co-op and institutional accounts have volume pricing for the same structure.
The work belongs to the student, not the billing account. When billing lapses, the account goes dormant and the guardian email on file receives a notification with a claim link. The student can reclaim their subdomain, Works, coach history, and process logs under a new billing arrangement whenever they choose. Nothing is deleted except in COPPA compliance cases, which only apply to minor accounts after three consecutive years of unreachable guardian contact.
No contract. Cancel anytime from your account settings. Annual plans are billed upfront and prorated if you cancel mid-year, with the unused portion refunded.
Yes, within reason. Annual plans get prorated refunds for unused time. Monthly plans are not refunded for the current billing month but stop auto-renewing. For any unusual circumstance, contact us and we will work it out.
No credit card, no commitment, no surprise charges. Use it with your child on an assignment they are already working on, and make your call.
