Which, ironically, is not obviously located. The link for their FAQ says "Demo". And it's in the main navigation on the top, instead of somewhere down the page where their layout is guiding me. Right before "Intercom Integration", they should really have another section which says "Do you have more questions? Try our FAQ!" Instead, all of their navigation is guiding me to the sign-up button as a next step. It's a product page for creating and maintaining FAQs, and they don't guide me to their own FAQ - that's not a good sign.

  I agree. I did eventually find the pricing info in the demo, but it's not at all immediately obvious that the 'demo' plays double duty as the site's actual FAQ page. And why hide pricing info in a FAQ anyway? Pricing should not be just in a FAQ. Also, $7/mo seems steep to me, but who knows? To me the FAQ system seems to involve an excess of clicking/navigating.

I could be wrong, but I'm almost positive the "demo" link just brought up the sign-up form before. Glad they changed that, maybe I should bring this up for every product featured on the HN front page ;)

Thanks I came here to complain of no pricing page also. Shows how important conventions are. "SlimFAQ is free for up to 20 questions. If your FAQ requires more, you can sign up to our standard plan that comes with unlimited questions for just 7 $ per month (annual payment)."
