Shaxpir 5.2.0 Released

Benji Smith February 20, 2026

Today's release includes fixes for several bugs in the DOCX Export and EPUB Export features, which will be important for anyone who needs to export their writing from the platform. This release also includes two important changes:

All Pro features are now free. Every Shaxpir user now has access to the full set of Pro features, including DOCX and EPUB export, the desktop app with offline mode, and all linguistic highlighting tools. All existing Pro subscriptions have been cancelled, and no one will be charged again.
New signups have been disabled. Shaxpir is no longer accepting new user registrations.

For more information about why we've made these changes, please read the blog post Shaxpir is Shutting Down.
