HelloNote drops 50% first-month promo, caps $30 part-time plan at 100 notes
What happened
Between the Oct 19, 2026 and Oct 26, 2026 captures of HelloNote's pricing page, Pulse recorded 2 changes: The 'Save 50% on your first month' new-customer promo was removed from the Plus card, hero copy and the '50% Off Your First Month' banner. Listed prices are unchanged; Part-time provider ($30/mo) is now capped at 100 notes per month; over 100 notes is billed at the full-time $45 rate. Previously no cap was shown. Pulse files it as a pricing change (limit decrease, discount removed) with a downward direction. The current page lists Plus at $25 and Lite at $49.99.
It lands 22 days after HelloNote's previous change, "HelloNote swaps 5% promo for 10% off new PT subscribers in October" (Oct 5, 2026). Before that Pulse recorded "HelloNote swaps 30-day free scribe trial for 5% monthly discount deal" (Sep 7, 2026) and "HelloNote: July $250-off promo swapped for August free AI Scribe trial" (Aug 3, 2026). HelloNote has been tracked since 2026-02-27.
