Going out of business after one year

The Socrates app will cease operations on May 31. First, it was Alphana, and now it appears that Blogify is following suit. At this rate, I'm losing confidence in AppSumo apps because I can't predict which ones might close next. It feels like I've only paid for a one-year subscription. I should have purchased the one-year subscription directly from their website instead of opting for the lifetime deal on AppSumo. That way, I wouldn't be impacted if they went out of business. Socrates has decided to close after the mandatory one-year period to avoid issuing refunds. Now, I’m left wondering which of my apps will be the next to fail.

Another dead product

It really starts to feel like every ltd you buy on appsumo gets killed off or stops working after a year or two....

Abandoned, now closed

Around 1 year mark they abandoned the product, it stopped properly working at end of 2025. Another pump and dump, another stain on Appsumo's brand. The only plus is that this one wasn't an expensive loss.

Just Outside the Money Back Guarantee

Planned obsolescence. Was this a scam to begin with? The timing is suspect.

Pump & Dump Scheme

AppSumo looks more like a Pump & Dump scheme. Half of the tools I purchased never got updates, never added new features, and some launched a subscription model including AI after the purchase. What is AppSumo SELECT....EVERYTHING SHOULD BE APPSUMO SELECT......IF IT IS NOT APPSUMO SELECT, this is just a Pump & Dump scheme. We do not fund entrepreneurs, we fund guys who identify a 'niche', a popular subscription service and deploy their promises here with AppSumo conveniently collecting commissions. From now on AppSumo SELECT only.
