A limited-time rate available to early adopters. Once you lock in the founding rate ($900/year), that price stays the same for the life of your subscription — even as standard prices increase. Limited spots, first-come first-served.
Yes. All subscriptions are annual with no long-term contracts. Cancel anytime and your access continues through the end of your billing period. Note: cancelling a Founding Pass means losing the founding rate if you rejoin later.
Yes. For large organizations, multi-campus schools, or agencies we offer enterprise plans starting at $6,000/year with custom permissions, audit logs, SLAs, and dedicated onboarding. Contact us to discuss your needs.
