You pay for the book, not for seat-time.

Two paths, both live today: no subscription juggling, no per-feature upsells. Every plan includes the full thinking partner and a real, finished book you own forever.

Independent author — $12 / month

For an adult writing their own book.

• Socrates, your AI thinking partner: asks questions, never writes for you
• Your book is yours forever: read & export even if you cancel
• Arc and growth self-diagnostics as you write
• Export to Word, EPUB & print, with a Certificate of Authorship

Cancel anytime. One active book at a time.

Family / homeschool — $79 / book, one-time

For a parent funding a child’s book.

• Everything an author gets, for your child
• A full semester of writing: one whole book
• A parent’s-eye view of how their thinking is growing
• Username-only child accounts: no child email collected

One-time, per child per book. No subscription; 14-day money-back guarantee. Teaching a homeschool co-op? Run it as a classroom: each family pays its own seat, and you set the pace.

Schools & districts — Let’s talk per seat / book

For a class, school, or district.

• Per-seat pricing that scales with your roster, with volume discounts
• The teacher Command Center: watch thinking develop live
• The growth instrument + a transparent methodology view
• A standard data agreement (NDPA) your counsel already knows
