Before you buy
Straight answers.
What exactly am I buying?
Digital education products: PDF tutorials, downloadable skill packs (code + documentation), and consulting time. You are buying the knowledge to build a research system — not access to our portfolio, not stock picks, not signals.
Do I need to know how to code?
No. The Blueprint starts from zero — the author had no coding background two months before this system existed. You need a Mac or Linux machine, patience, and the willingness to let AI write code you then verify.
Is any of this investment advice?
No. Nothing on this site is investment advice. The system is WATCHLIST_ONLY by design: it researches and documents, it never recommends, buys, or sells. Consulting sessions cover AI workflow engineering only.
What’s the refund policy?
Blueprint: 14-day no-questions refund. Skills Library: cancel anytime, effective next cycle. Consulting: reschedule free up to 24h before; refund if we cancel. Want to check quality first? See a sample of the system’s output →
Can I buy the tutorials individually?
Individual volumes are available on our Payhip store. The Blueprint bundle here is the better deal — all three volumes for $49.
