The pains at this stage
Hit the same spot colour again, without guessing from memory.
Matching a spot colour from memory or a half-empty tub of ink is how a second order quietly stops matching the first. Write the formula down once and it stops being a guess. See ink mixing basics.
Get exposure right the first time, and screens reclaimed without redoing them.
At low volume, one bad exposure or one botched reclaim is a bigger percentage hit than it would be for a shop printing hundreds a week. Getting exposure right the first time, and reclaiming screens without damaging them, both pay for themselves fast. See the exposure calculator and every reclaim costs something.
Fix a bad ink split in seconds, not a spent job.
The ink editor lets you merge a bad automatic split or duplicate an ink for a double hit without burning a whole free job over it — useful when the job has to be right the first time, not the third. See merge, duplicate, undo.
Upgrade only once the free tier is genuinely holding you back.
Three inks, 360 dpi and three jobs is a real test drive, not a production limit. Pro removes exactly those three ceilings when the volume justifies it. See what Pro costs.

How do I make sure a repeat order matches a color I mixed months ago?
Write the mix formula down against a Pantone reference the first time, and keep it with the job file. See ink mixing basics.
How much time does reclaiming a screen actually take?
Depends on the strip order and whether you degrease every cycle, not just when it looks dirty. Skipping steps to save time is usually what causes the redo. See every reclaim costs something.
When should I upgrade from the free tier?
When 3 inks, 360 dpi or 3 jobs is genuinely limiting your work, not before. See pricing.
