Recorded changes. Same facts, member sort.
12 dated rows from the public monthly digest. This page shows the format members get in Whop — same facts, sorted for people who already pay for a stack. If a source is missing a dollar price, this feed will not invent one.
The instant Stack Audit is free — that is how you find the waste. Keep/Cut Weekly is the free weekly email. Premium is optional: $12/month on Whop for the dated keep/cut pack and a 48-hour written reply when you want help before renewals. Cheaper than one overlapping seat. Not another AI subscription.
These pages are not gated. Premium is delivered in Whop.
You can read this preview without paying. This site is static, so it cannot hide HTML. What you buy for $12/month lives in Whop: dated keep/cut research, the monthly decision matrix CSV, the weekly checklist, tool-change alerts, a stack-audit template with a strategy-only reply within 48 hours, an ROI worksheet, and priority research slots.
7-day free trial, then $12/month. Code LAUNCH50 is 50% off the first paid month for new users. After checkout, open /premium/welcome/, then the AIToolsEssentials Premium hub with the email you used at checkout. The directory, Keep/Cut Weekly, and instant Stack Audit stay free. Premium does not include implementation, setup, integrations, account access, credentials, or ongoing technical support.

Axios: initial access for limited Daybreak organizations, then ChatGPT Plus / Pro / Business / Enterprise and API developers in the coming days. OpenAI customer stories dated 2026-09-03 use the name GPT-6 Astra. Greg Brockman called it a generational leap. AGI remarks are not treated as fact.

Official pplx-garden README names the demo at github.com/perplexityai/pplx-garden (lily/), Apache-2.0, greedy generation for the Qwen3.6-35B-A3B MLX affine 4-bit checkpoint, Apple GPU family 10+ (M5 and newer). Not a Perplexity paid plan SKU. Vendor-published throughput figures were not independently reproduced. Perplexity consumer plan dollar prices were not re-verified on this date. | https://www.perplexity.ai/hub/blog/optimizing-on-device-inference-for-apple-silicon |
