That was originally the plan but we showed it to some non technical people and they only understood the idea once we showed some examples.
But you are right that we should make it more clear that it's free. Thanks!

On this same subject, I would just make the boxes on the very first page editable so you can just play with it right away. After reading the description at the bottom I spent a few seconds trying to manipulate the text boxes on the front page before I realized I had to click a button. It would be really cool if they were live editable examples right on the front page.
I have a small piece of feedback on the site. You could make it a tiny bit clearer that this is a free, registration free, service which people can start using with just one click.
When I first visited the site, I looked it over, noticed the email box and the "get started" and just assumed it was a library I'd need to buy. It wasn't until I came back to the comments here that I realised the site was a service (which is actually extremely useful to me, and it has been bookmarked).
Why not just make http://www.transformy.io/#/app your homepage instead?
