They could make it paid only today, and it'd be instantly profitable. Most free users would transition to a free alternative, but the corporate world would easily pay for use. So would some power users. But I'm sure they are making good money with all the API use anyways, the free access is a cheap way to get mass testing and training data.

I know so many average Joe's that use it all the time and would instantly pay $5 a month for it, even just a phone app.
