Frequently asked questions

Free is the open lobby — Time Machine, the Investor’s Edge skill tree, and the chart-reading quiz. No account needed. Pro Lab is the paid tier for active practice, adding live-market paper trading, an automatic investor’s log that journals every move, and Stack — the AI coach that reads your journal back to you and helps you see your own patterns. Elite is a future tier focused on Architect, a personalized investing bot built from your style and ready to test with paper money.

There isn’t a separate trial — but the free tier isn’t a trial either. It’s the full free product, and there’s no time limit on it. The free tier alone has enough depth that most people spend serious time there before considering Pro Lab. Pay when you’re ready for live-market practice, journaling, and Stack — not before.

Yes. Pro Lab is $14.99 per month, or $143.99 per year — about 20% off the monthly rate. Yearly billing is the same Pro Lab in every other way; the only difference is the price.

Yes. There’s no contract, no minimum term, and no cancellation process beyond clicking cancel in your account settings. If you cancel, you keep access through the end of your current billing period.

If you’re not happy with Pro Lab, email us and we’ll refund you. There’s no form, no required reason, and no hoops. We’d rather know you’re not getting value and give you your money back than keep a payment from someone who isn’t being served.

Yes, anytime. You can upgrade from Free to Pro Lab whenever you’re ready, and you can downgrade from Pro Lab back to Free whenever you want. Switching between monthly and yearly Pro Lab is also straightforward — your account settings handle it directly.

Your account, your archetype results, and any progress you’ve made stay with you. If you re-subscribe later, everything is where you left it. We don’t delete or hide your data when you downgrade — you just lose access to the Pro Lab features themselves until you re-upgrade.
