What do I buy for $12/month?
Premium is delivered in Whop. You get dated keep/cut research, a monthly decision matrix CSV, a weekly checklist, tool-change alerts, a stack-audit template with a strategy-only written reply within 48 hours, an ROI worksheet, and priority research slots (first 5 complete requests each month).
What do I get this week?
After checkout, open /premium/welcome/. This page cannot verify a charge. If Whop shows the trial or payment succeeded, open the AIToolsEssentials Premium hub, download this week's keep/cut notes and the decision matrix CSV, run the 15-minute checklist, and fill the stack-audit template if you want a written keep/cut reply.
What stays free?
The public directory, Keep/Cut Weekly (the Beehiiv email), and the instant Stack Audit at /stack-audit.html. Do not use the Whop checkout for those.
What is not included?
Implementation, setup, integrations, account access, credentials, or ongoing technical support. Premium does not change public rankings, sponsor labels, or review scores. The /premium/library/ pages on this site are a public preview of the format. They are not gated.
Is Premium a course, community, or consulting service?
No. You are buying dated research and a written keep/cut reply. Personalized stack recommendations from the audit template are strategy-only written replies — not hands-on implementation.
Can vendors pay to change rankings?
No. Premium does not change public editorial rankings, sponsor labels, affiliate disclosures, or review scores.
How does billing and cancellation work?
Billing, login, member access, and cancellation are handled by Whop. New members get a 7-day free trial, then $12/month. Use code LAUNCH50 for 50% off the first paid month (new users only). Cancel anytime from your Whop account.
Are refunds offered?
No. All sales are final and there are no refunds. Use the 7-day free trial, the public preview, and the terms before you join.
How do member requests work?
Post the workflow you want compared next. Include your role, current tools, weekly task, candidate tools, budget, and data constraints. The first 5 complete requests each month become priority research slots delivered as a CSV + brief in the next drop.
Is Premium worth $12/month?
Only you can decide. It is useful if you already pay for multiple AI tools, have overlap, or have a renewal coming up, and you will use the checklist in week one. It is not useful if you only use one free assistant occasionally. Use the 7-day trial: if you have not made a keep/cut decision by day 7, cancel. We do not invent savings figures.
