I am on my knees begging for a super patron option

[WatersLethe]

I spend hours on Herolab Online as a GM reviewing characters, checking stats, planning adventures, building NPCs. It makes it easy to check what the players are doing during a game, help them find stuff on their web apps, or take control of a player's character while they're gone.

From my players' perspective, they show up ~once a month forget their login, and feel kind of hassled by trying to work through the interface whose design has never been within 100 feet of a UX designer. They see a notice that they're going to have to renew soon, but feel like they paid $5 just recently even though it's been months ago. They're not seeing all the value I get out of it, just a kind of handy character sheet, but "things like Pathbuilder are free, why don't we use that?" as they switch between taking notes on their old character sheet printouts and wondering why their online character isn't up to date.

In the end, some of them are under the impression that I'm forcing them to use this software that they have to pay for for no good reason, and lug electronics around to use.

I've literally bought two tablets so that I don't have to watch two players struggle through using their old, slow phones. Did I mention several of my players are on tight budgets and even though it's $5 every few months they're psychologically predisposed to resisting fees?

So please, I am begging you. Let me pay so that they can access the software. Let me take away one of the barriers keeping them from fully engaging with the software. Heck, charge me a premium now while you figure out the business plan.
