Naven is free. That is the whole page.

What free includes

Everything Naven does:

• One-to-one and group messaging
• Voice and video calls
• Community channels you can create and share by link
• The AI assistant, translation and conversation summaries
• The newsroom, with its five-publisher floor
• File transfers up to 30 MB — images, video and audio
• Pre-send safety screening on every message, picture and voice note

The only limit is 30 MB per file. There is no cap on messages, calls, channels or members.

How Naven is paid for

It is not. Naven is built and maintained by one developer and runs on the free tiers of Cloudflare and Firebase. That is the real answer, and it comes with a real consequence worth knowing before you rely on it: there is no uptime guarantee, and no support contract. See the Terms for what that means in practice.

If Naven ever needs revenue to survive, the commitment is that it will not come from advertising or from selling member data. Both would break the thing the product is for.

Compared to the alternatives

Free is not the differentiator — everything on that list is free to start. The two columns on the right are.

Machine-readable

The same figures as a plain file, for anything parsing rather than reading: /pricing.md.
