Looks intriguing but if I want a lifetime journal that evolves and becomes a living lab book over my entire life (see lord byron’s daughter’s journals or others) seems like it’s limited by the average half-life of a corporation & my ability/desire to pay yearly. Does it last?

It's a good question! My impression is that Muse canvases fit the niche of a magnetic whiteboard in physical space: you arrange sketches, photos, drawings, make sense of it, then you move onto higher-fidelity media. The long-term accretive aspiration is a good one though!

Yes! very excited about this app. So many magical interactions. Definitely the right question. More than happy to pay $99/year when I am actively using an app but so far my experience is that at some point the utility dries up and you keep paying to maintain access to your data

I’m thinking that the right subscription model covering this would be paying for creation and editing only, but read-only access to already created boards is free or much cheaper ($1/month max)
