Barry had been searching for many years for good enough software for his blog and newsletter. None of the options out there suited him, so he convinced his friends and colleagues at Good Enough to build his dream blog software. Barry wanted these things most:
-
An editor that makes you want to write, not tinker. Pika’s editor gets out of your way. It’s designed to perfectly match how your words will be presented to your readers. -
Posts and pages that look beautiful from day one. Pika wants you to focus on writing, so we set everything up so your blog looks great right out-of-the-box. -
Customization that is simple and non-technical. You should be writing, not fiddling, so we took a simple but flexible approach to theming and customizing. -
A built-in way to send your posts as a newsletter. Pika makes it easy for your readers to subscribe to your blog, and for you to email them your posts. -
A unique internet guestbook that feels like yesteryear. Your readers can sign your blog with a little drawing, or just a short note if they prefer (but why would they?). -
All the technical stuff up-to-date and handled by us. Focus on your writing and let Pika handle hosting, security, performance, sitemaps, RSS feeds, blocking scrappers, etc.
So we built Pika, and now Barry’s happy! And we’re happy. And so are Brendon, Kyle, Ben, Annie, and many many others. Maybe you will be happy to blog like these happy bloggers, too?

A few words about pricing…
We believe that software shouldn’t make money from ads nor tracking its customers. As they say, if you’re not paying, you’re the product. To that end, you can start blogging on Pika right away for free for up to 50 full blog posts, but unlimited blogging and a newsletter will need a paid subscription.
Using Pika means you’ll be in control of your writing and data, and supporting indie software made with expertise and care. In return, we’ll never sell your data, let AI train on it, nor slap an obnoxious ad on your blog.

A quick note about pikas.
At first glance they might look like mice,
but really they’re more closely related to rabbits
(which are kind of like mice, perhaps?).
Pika is created by Good Enough, a small team of decent people who wanted a decent place to scream our decent thoughts into the void. If you’d like to follow along as we build Pika, follow our Building Pika Out Loud Pika blog.
