Subscriptions weren't built for you.
Monthly subscriptions exist so you pay even when you don't use the platform. That benefits the platform — not you. We work differently.
No Guilt
Life gets busy. If you don't work on your project for two weeks, nothing burns. Your units and your workspace are waiting.
Low Entry Cost
Start small. Get full access to every tool, every template, every feature. No locked tiers.
No Surprises
You spend units at three clearly defined moments: opening a project workspace, using AI features, and unlocking premium content. That's it.
Three steps. That's it.
Buy a pack, create your project, and build until it's done. When you complete it, we give you credits for the next one.
Usage Pack ........ one-time purchase → project units
├─ Project Hosting .... create project → [HOSTING_COST_2MO] units → 2-month workspace

Buy a Usage Pack
One-time purchase. No commitment. No auto-renewal.
A Usage Pack gives you Project Units — the platform's single currency. Units fund your project workspaces, your AI usage, and any premium content you choose to unlock. The only difference between packs is how many units you get.
600 Project Units
Create a Project
Your workspace activates instantly — no setup, no waiting.
When you create a new project, a Project Hosting Plan activates immediately. This is a time-bound activation of all platform features for that specific project. No per-click charges inside. No clock running while you work. Just your project, fully operational for 2 months.
The Project Hosting Plan covers everything inside your project: task management, scheduling, budgeting, workshop tools, the knowledge library, HelpDesk, and all standard platform features. You're not charged per task, per page view, or per session. The workspace is prepaid for 2 months — use it as intensely as you want.
Need more time? You can extend month by month for [HOSTING_EXTENSION_COST] units each. Need a break? You can pause your workspace — the clock stops until you resume.
What happens when you create a project:
Complete & Earn
Finish your project. We reward you for it.
This is perhaps the most different thing compared to any other platform you've used.
Most platforms reward you for staying — for scrolling, watching, consuming. We reward you for finishing.
When you mark a project as 100% complete and publish it, you receive a Completion Reward: [HOSTING_BONUS_UNITS] bonus Project Units credited to your account instantly. Use them for your next hosting plan, AI queries, or premium content.
Your completed project becomes read-only — preserved permanently in your account, exportable at any time. Print · Build · Hack · Break · Learn · Repeat.
AI built in. You set the limit.
Every project includes access to AI Wizards and prompt generators. AI queries consume Project Units at a fixed, visible cost per action. You control how much of your balance goes toward AI.
Fixed Cost Per Query
Each AI action costs [AI_QUERY_COST] units. The cost is always shown before you execute — no hidden charges, no surprise deductions.
Set Your AI Limit
From your dashboard, define how many units you're willing to spend on AI queries. Adjust it anytime — your call, not ours.
Hard Cap Protection
Once you hit your AI limit, queries pause — your project workspace keeps running. Raise the limit when you're ready to use more AI.
Unlock once. Yours forever.
Some content — complete project libraries, advanced workshops, downloadable files — requires a one-time unit unlock. Once unlocked, it belongs to your account permanently. No re-billing. No expiry. Accessible from any project, any time.
Premium Libraries
Complete project courses, advanced workshops, in-depth technical guides. Pay once in units — then access the library freely from your account at any time, regardless of active projects.
Downloadable Products
Templates, designs, resource packs, project files. Pay once in units, download instantly. Yours forever — accessible from your account regardless of active projects.
Life happens. We've got your back.
Your Project Hosting Plan is built around how real makers actually work — in bursts, not in steady streams.
Pause
Freeze your hosting plan — the clock stops. Resume when you're ready. No units lost while paused.
Extend
Need more time? Add one month at a time for [HOSTING_EXTENSION_COST] units. No rush, no penalty.
Multi-Project
Run multiple projects in parallel. Each has its own Project Hosting Plan. Your unit balance is shared across all.
Export
Completed projects are exportable at any time. Your data is yours — always, unconditionally.
Every unit is logged.
Your usage ledger shows exactly where, when, and how many units you spent. No hidden charges. No surprises.
Start small.
Build more when you're ready.
Each pack gives you Project Units — the same currency for hosting, AI, and premium content. The only difference is how many you get.
Prices in EUR, excl. VAT. One-time purchase. No auto-renewal. Units valid for 12 months from purchase date.
Building with your kids?

Rules & Safeguards
| Rule | Details |
|---|---|
| Unit Expiry | Project Units are valid for 12 months from purchase date. Unused units expire after that period. |
| Hosting Activation | Units spent on a Project Hosting Plan are deducted at activation and are considered used from that moment. See the Refund Policy for full terms. |
| Stacking | Buy additional packs anytime. New units are added to existing ones. Expiry is per purchase (rolling). |
| Account Limit | There is a maximum unit limit per account. You cannot buy a new pack if it exceeds the limit. Current limits are shown at checkout. |
| Non-Transferable | Units do not transfer between users and cannot be cashed out. Allocation to dependent accounts is usage rights — not value transfer. |

Secure payments. No surprises.

Payments are processed securely via the Merchant of Record shown at checkout.
