Show HN: Active Checklist, Reusable Checklists for all your processes

The app is minimal in it's layout and very clearly structured. You can create templates, either with single tasks or section lists and create a checklist from a given template. While not relevant to me, there is also a team functionality.
Classic case of do one thing and do it well.
If I were in a position to bring this into my organisation I'd be concerned about its longevity, seeing as its a completely free product.
How're the costs of this project being covered?
> Internal Wikis, paper checklists, cloning JIRA issues, Confluence templates
I hope in the future we can replace all of these things with Active Checklist :)

Right now we just want to see whether other people also receive value from using the product. Once we see that the product is producing enough value, we will add a monthly subscription for pro users.
As we're using the product ourselves, we do not plan to shut down it down anytime soon.
It gets useful once you have lots of repeating checklists. E.g. when you do QA for a client's website. You want to make sure that certain things are always checked (e.g. a website always needs to be tested with all different browsers). That way you fix a lot of low hanging fruits before the project is delivered.
Now you can write the list of things to check down in google drive. But now you have to always copy these lists around, and once you are working with multiple people, things get a bit complicated.
That's why we built the tool. We first used it internally to manage our different kind of recurring processes (like QA testing), and then later decided it might be useful for other people to.
Thanks again for your input :)
Happy to receive feedback!
