RecentReborn Pricing Update: Lock in Current Pro Rates Until May 31st

Felix MelchnerBy Felix Melchner

Starting June 1st, we're adjusting the price of our yearly Pro plan. If you're on the free plan or thinking about renewing, you can lock in the current rate by upgrading before May 31st.

Why we're making this change

Running RecentReborn isn't cheap. Staying up-to-date across Instagram, TikTok, and YouTube without ads or algorithmic interference takes real infrastructure. To keep the platform fast, ad-free, and growing (we're working on better history downloads, among other things), we need to adjust our pricing.

Unlike most social platforms, we don't sell your attention to advertisers. RecentReborn is entirely supported by Pro members, which means this change is what keeps us independent.

What this means for you

On the free plan? Upgrade to yearly Pro before midnight on May 31st and you'll lock in today's rate for your entire first year.

Already a yearly Pro member? Your current rate stays the same until your next renewal. If your plan automatically renews before May 31st, you get another year at the lower price.

Why it matters

When Instagram pulled the recent hashtag tab, they replaced it with a feed designed to surface whoever already has the biggest following. That's not useful if you're trying to find a new artist, connect with a local community, track a niche hobby, or enter a giveaway fairly.

RecentReborn gives you back chronological search, the ability to find real people posting right now, not whoever the algorithm decided to amplify. That means:

  • Finding new creators: artists, musicians, photographers, and authors who actually talk to their audience

  • Small business prospecting: reaching potential customers in specific niches or local areas before they're saturated

  • Fair giveaway tracking: seeing contest posts as they're published, not days later

  • Real-time discovery: local events, niche communities, things happening now

Upgrading before May 31st saves you money and helps keep an independent, ad-free corner of the internet alive.

About the Author

Felix Melchner

I built RecentReborn because Instagram’s decision to hide recent posts made it impossible to find real people and small creators who are not already famous. My vision for 2026 is to restore the original soul of social media by giving everyone a fair chance to be discovered and supported through chronological search.
