Questions about Public Deck Collaboration & Organization Pricing for a Diverse Community

[lehoangphuc747]

Hello AnkiHub Support Team,

I manage/contribute to a large Anki community in Vietnam, consisting of around 30,000 members with very diverse learning needs (not limited to Medicine, but including various subjects, foreign languages like Korean, etc.).

My goal is to build and share high-quality decks that cater to the diverse needs of this community. We are currently facing difficulties with server issues hindering our effective collaboration on deck creation using Anki Collab.

Therefore, I am considering switching to AnkiHub to leverage its better deck management and updating features. However, I have some questions that need clarification before making a decision, particularly regarding the collaboration model and costs for such a large and diverse community, as many members are students with limited financial resources:

1. Regarding contributing/suggesting changes (Suggest Changes) on Public Decks:

• If only I, as the deck owner, subscribe to the Core ($6/month) plan and share the deck publicly with the community, can other members who subscribe to this public deck suggest changes?
• Or do they also need to have a paid AnkiHub subscription (e.g., Core) to be able to use the suggest changes feature on that public deck? I’m trying to clarify the collaboration capabilities for users subscribing to a public deck from a paid owner, specifically for those who might be free users.

2. Regarding the costs for the ‘Organization’ feature:

• I would like to ask for clarification on the costs associated with AnkiHub’s ‘Organization’ feature.
• Specifically, what is the cost for the Organization creator/administrator?
• and what is the cost for members joining the Organization?
• We are considering using this feature for our large community (around 30,000 people) to better manage contributions and updates across various diverse topics. Understanding the cost implications for this large number of potential members is very important for us to assess feasibility, particularly given the exchange rate differences and the financial constraints of many students in Vietnam.

Our ultimate goal is to create high-quality, diverse, and more accessible learning resources for the entire Anki learning community in Vietnam.

We look forward to receiving detailed answers from AnkiHub to help us make the most suitable decision for our community.

Thank you very much for your support!

Hello! Thanks for your detailed questions about using AnkiHub for your large Vietnamese learning community. I understand you’re exploring options that balance collaboration capabilities with cost efficiency for your diverse group of users. Let me address your questions:

1. Suggesting Changes on Public Decks

For users to suggest changes to public decks:

• Yes, users need a paid subscription to use the “suggest changes” feature. This is true even if they’re subscribing to a public deck that you created with your Core plan.
• Free users can subscribe to and use public decks, but they cannot suggest changes without their own paid subscription.

From the “Collaborate on a Deck” documentation:

You can suggest changes to existing notes in decks that you subscribe to on AnkiHub… After suggesting a change, your suggestion will have to be reviewed and accepted by the deck maintainers.

The collaboration features require a paid membership to utilize fully.

2. Organization Feature Costs

Regarding Organizations:

• Organizations are billed annually with a discount of one month free per user seat
• The organization owner pays for all the user seats in the organization
• When you add users to your organization, your annual bill is adjusted with a prorated amount
• All organization members get full access to AnkiHub features including linked decks

For your specific large community of 30,000 users, I would recommend:

1. Contacting AnkiHub support directly to discuss potential custom solutions
2. Mentioning your specific needs related to the large number of users and financial constraints in Vietnam

From the Organizations documentation:

If you would like to create an organization, please request Support, send a private message to customer support or email support@ankihub.net.

Alternative Approach

Given your community’s size and financial constraints, you might consider a hybrid approach:

• Create a core team of contributors with paid subscriptions
• Use the organization feature for this smaller team of key content creators
• Share the resulting high-quality decks as public decks for the wider community

This would allow you to maintain quality control while making the content accessible to users with limited resources.

I hope this helps with your decision-making! For specific pricing details and potential custom solutions for your large community, I recommend reaching out to AnkiHub’s support team directly.
