Beehiiv, a newsletter and creator platform that has grown in popularity as an alternative to Substack, is raising its prices, a move that has drawn criticism from some of its users.
In a post explaining the change, Beehiiv co-founder and chief executive Tyler Denk said the increase would allow the company to continue investing in its core platform experience.
The announcement prompted a mixed reaction among creators who use the platform, with some users expressing frustration over the higher costs on social media and in community discussions.
Beehiiv has not disclosed detailed figures on how many customers the price change affects or the exact scale of the increase across its different subscription tiers.
The platform's pricing changes come as competition in the newsletter and creator-tools space continues, with creators weighing cost against the features and audience-building tools each platform offers.
