I happen to be using it because it's an easy way to consult some data but I understand the cost part 😉

It is actually not expensive. I just have multiple apps running on Heroku. I need to figure out a way to consolidate them into one or two apps.

Nice that is not expensive.
I hope that you be able to consolidate your apps into one or two apps.

If you need help to think that app can be merged to a single app please tell me and I will join to help.

Waves I use it ! Well, I did until it stopped working, lol.

Fabulous tool, I used it to look on the HBD-Savings Richlist, giving myself a goal to gradually climb up the rankings (looong way to go...). It appeals to my competitive instinct !

If everyone who used it set up a delegation to you (say 50 or 100 HP), would that come even slightly close to covering the cost ?

We need to ask @geekgirl if there is some way that we can help her with costs to continue to have the Platform live

Definitely ! I guess the first thing to establish is what kind of cost we're looking at - Heroku seems to have $5, $25 and $250 per month price bands, although I wonder if there might be somewhere less expensive offering a similar service.

I'm not any kind of coder, but perhaps the tool needs to have a sign in option (with Hivesigner and/or Keychain, ideally) and a strong nudge to get a delegation or contribute SBI's. The all we need to do is do the maths and work out what level of delegation is needed to cover the cost !
