Membership

Billed once a year. Because you already have enough subscriptions.

The directory is free and always will be. What a pass pays for is the judgement layer: the stacks, the checklists, and the in-browser toolkit. No auto-renew, no card stored, nothing to cancel in eleven months.

Get Studio Pass

One payment. No auto-renew, no card on file.

Why annual and not monthly. A monthly pass would need a subscription billing system, and every one of those stores a card that renews itself. The whole argument of this site is that a one-person store should carry fewer recurring charges, not more. So it is one payment, and it expires quietly when the year is out.

What you actually get, concretely

Not feature names — the things on the other side of the paywall.

Unlocked by a pass

Twelve stacks, priced end to end

One per business shape: zero-budget validation, first hundred orders, Amazon FBA, Shopify brand, print on demand, dropshipping, Etsy, TikTok Shop, digital products, multi-channel, support-heavy categories, and running stores for clients. Each lists the tools, the monthly total, and the cancellation order.

Unlocked by a pass

Eight resources built from failures

A 34-item suppression checklist, a 26-prompt copy pack with worked outputs, a weighted product scorecard, nine supplier emails that get real quotes, a true-cost model, an image spec table for four platforms, a twelve-point AI output audit, and a launch week plan.

Unlocked by a pass

The in-browser toolkit

Six calculators: margin and true cost, break-even ROAS, a listing limiter across four platforms, a twelve-point suppression scanner, a stack pricer, and return impact. They run in the tab — no upload, nothing typed leaves the page.

Unlocked by a pass

A weekly brief that is short

New tools worth a look, price changes on things already listed, and anything that got materially worse. One email a week, under 300 words, no round-up padding.

Terms, plainly

The boring parts, written so you can decide.

Refunds
Fourteen days, no reason needed, as long as you have not downloaded more than two library files. Email the address in the footer with the payment reference and it is returned in full. There is no form and no retention flow.
What happens when the year ends
The pass stops working and that is the whole event. No card is charged, no renewal email sequence starts. If you want another year you buy another one, at whatever the price is then.
How the unlock works
You sign in with an email and a password. The pass is attached to that account on the server, so every device you sign in on has it — no code to keep, nothing to activate. If you ordered by invoice instead, you get a code by email shaped like SOLO-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX; paste it once in the account page and it attaches for good.
Seats and sharing
Solo is one person, one account. Studio covers three accounts, for the two or three people who genuinely run the store together. Sharing one Solo login across a team is the one thing that gets a pass revoked without a refund.
Payment methods
Card and PayPal through the checkout. If the checkout is not available in your region, the order page will offer a PayPal invoice instead — same price, same code, just a manual step at each end.
