Software Pricing

Pricing

Prices for our braille software: Quality Brailler, Braille Prep and the Braille Converter. Transcription services are quoted per project.

Quality Brailler

There is one 14-day free trial per email address, with full access and no card needed. The trial begins the first time you use Quality Brailler with your QBT account. Works on Windows, Mac and iPad, not on phones.

Start free trial

  • No sales tax is added. The price you see is the price you pay.
  • Refunds within 7 days. Changed your mind? Email support@qualitybraille.com within 7 days of your purchase for a full refund. A refunded plan ends when the refund is made.
  • One computer at a time. A license is for one person. Open Quality Brailler on another computer and choose Use it here, and the license moves there.
  • Bought from us, not from Microsoft or Apple. The downloads from Microsoft Store and the Mac App Store are free. Subscribe above, or in the Windows app or the web version: choose the button “Free trial: … days left · Subscribe” at the bottom of the window, or choose Plans & billing on the Account menu (or under Translation in the Setup tab of the tool dock). Either way, you pay on a secure Stripe checkout page. Use the email you sign in to Quality Brailler with, and your plan is on as soon as you pay. Cancel a monthly or yearly plan at any time: in the app, open Plans & billing and choose Manage billing, or use the manage your plan page with the email you paid with. Canceling stops the next renewal, and your plan stays active until the end of the period you have paid for.
  • Your files stay yours. When your free trial or plan ends, Quality Brailler locks on your account until you choose a plan. Files you saved stay on your device, and the installed app still opens, edits and saves braille files without signing in.
  • Already subscribed? Manage your plan with the email you paid with.
  • The full terms. Read the Terms of Service and the Refund Policy.
