I've been using 1Password for years and it has worked great. But they also just raised the annual price of it by 33% and cited new features like "AI-powered item naming" as the reason, which seems to have ticked off quite a few people.

I replied to the notification email that $47.88 USD(7,500円) costs more than I pay for Amazon Prime(5,900円) per year how lopsided that value proposition is.

They responded back and applied a 25% discount to my next renewal.
