Harvest Acquired and Repriced
Harvest, a time-tracking and invoicing service, was acquired by Bending Spoons in 2025. Following the acquisition, the service has undergone significant changes to its pricing model. Users previously paying $13.32 per month have seen their rates increase to $133.98 per month, as they are moved to a new "enterprise" plan.
New Pricing Structure and Transaction Fees
In addition to the increased monthly subscription, a new "flex" plan is available at $12.65 per month. This plan introduces an extra 2% fee on top of standard credit card transaction fees. This 2% fee is applied to gross revenue for services like sending invoices and wrapping a Stripe web form.
Customer Support Changes
Customer support for Harvest has also changed. Users attempting to contact Harvest via email have reported receiving responses generated by a Large Language Model, rather than direct human interaction.
Impact on Users
These changes have led to dissatisfaction among long-term users who valued Harvest for its simple interface, reliable functionality, and reasonable pricing. The new model is perceived as a significant increase in cost without a corresponding increase in service or features, prompting users to seek alternative invoicing solutions.
