Planned — not checkout-ready
Planned pricing at platform launch
These are the target prices for the first public release. They are not checkout-ready today. Founding Pitchers lock in the bundle above plus 50% off every row in the rating-window table.
Rating windows (per pitch)
You pay to open a time-boxed window so critics can score your pitch — not for queue placement. First listing is free for new creators (automatic Stripe coupon). Minimum 7-day window on first publish.
| Duration | Standard | Verified Creator (−25%) | Founding Pitcher (−50%) |
|---|---|---|---|
| 7 days | $19.00 | $14.25 | $9.50 |
| 14 days | $29.00 | $21.75 | $14.50 |
| 30 days | $49.00 | $36.75 | $24.50 |

Pricing principles
- Simple to understand — no hidden fees or tier confusion.
- Fair to both sides — casual creators pay occasionally; power creators subscribe.
- Transparent — every price states what you are paying for.
- No pay-for-position — you pay to open a rating window, not to cut in line.
