Paywall Hero

Read paywalled articles using Paywall Hero's AI summaries, alternate source search, and private window bypass! No technical knowledge required. Just tap and read. Every account starts with 100 free credits!

HOW IT WORKS

When you hit an article paywall, open Paywall Hero and choose your super power:

Hero Window -- Opens the paywalled article as a fresh visitor, bypassing most login-based and cookie-based paywalls instantly!

Hero Search -- Searches for the same paywalled article published on other websites that can be accessed for free! Works great for syndicated news stories from major outlets!

Hero AI Summary -- Uses AI to generate a comprehensive summary of any article, even ones that are fully locked behind a hard paywall. Get the full story without paying for a subscription!

100 FREE CREDITS TO START

Every new account includes 100 free credits -- no credit card required! Hero Window and Hero Search use 2.5 credits each, and a Hero AI Summary uses 12.5 credits. Try all three super powers and see which paywall bypass method works best for the sites you visit most.

BUY MORE CREDITS ONLY AS YOU NEED THEM

There is no subscription and nothing to cancel. Credit packs start at just $4.99 for 100 credits, with larger packs saving you up to 40%. Your credits will never expire, and work on every device you sign in to.

EARN FREE CREDITS

Share your Paywall Hero referral link with friends. When 10 of them click it, 100 additional free credits will be added to your account, whether or not they choose to try it.
