Brain.fm is the cheap part. The rest of the 50+ tool catalogue is where the money is.
Unlock my accessBrain.fm makes functional music: tracks designed to help you focus, relax or sleep rather than to be listened to, built on research into how sound affects attention. You pick an activity, set a timer and work.
It is inexpensive on its own, so nobody needs a discount on it. It is on this plan because the people who use ToolScale spend long sessions writing ads, editing video and researching products, and a focus session is the cheapest productivity tool in the catalogue.
