Founding Creator Program.

Twenty-five seats. Locked lifetime pricing. Direct line to the team building this. Your first-year usage costs whatever a Creator plan costs today, for as long as you keep the account, no matter how far pricing moves.

What you get

Three things worth showing up for.

The program is deliberately small so we can pay attention. Get in and here's what actually happens.

🔒
Locked lifetime pricing
Whatever tier you pick during the founding window is locked at that price for the life of your account. When Studio moves from $69 to $99, you stay at $69. Forever, or until you cancel.
📞
Direct line to the team
A private Slack channel with the founder. Weekly 30-minute office hours. Your feature requests go to the top of the queue and get answered by name, not by a ticketing system.
🎖
Name in the credits
Public "Founding Creator" badge on your profile. Listed (with your permission) on a founding creators wall once the cohort fills. Case-study energy when your clips outperform your old workflow, on your terms.
What we ask in return

Small commitments. Real ones.

This is a working relationship. You get access, we get feedback that shapes the product.

Four things, over the first 90 days.

  • Run the tool on at least three real recordings. Real footage, not tests. Where it breaks, we want to know.
  • One 30-minute call with the founder. Not sales. Product feedback. What worked, what missed, what you'd rip out.
  • Respond in Slack when we ask. Roadmap questions, feature previews, take-selection judgment calls we're calibrating. Days, not weeks.
  • One honest testimonial when the clips start landing. Only when they do. If they don't, we'd rather hear why than fake it.

Tell us what you're making.

Five questions. Should take you three minutes. We reply within three business days, one way or the other.

Founding Creator Application
Everything below stays with the founder. No sales pipeline, no data resale, no cold DMs.
A show link, YouTube channel, portfolio, or single episode is fine. Just enough for us to hear/see what you make.
Optional. Helps us skip a step if we cross-check who you are.
By applying, you agree we can review your submission and follow up by email. Everything you write stays private unless you opt in to a public case study later. See Privacy.
📬
Application received.
You'll hear back from the founder within three business days. If we're a fit, the next step is a short intro call to lock in your tier and set up your private channel.
Answers

What people ask.

Is the "locked lifetime pricing" really for life?
Yes, as long as you keep the account active on that plan. If you cancel and re-subscribe later, the lock resets to current pricing. If you upgrade tiers, the new tier is locked at that upgrade's current price. Downgrading returns you to your original lock.
Why only 25 seats?
Because we want to actually talk to every one of you. Twenty-five is the number where the founder can hold a 30-minute call every week without dropping quality. Once these are filled, the program pauses until we can scale support.
What if my clips don't outperform my old workflow?
Then we want to know why more than we want the testimonial. The whole point of the founding cohort is to find the cases where delivery-scoring misses so we can fix the scoring. No fake reviews — we'd rather have a critical case study than a shallow endorsement.
How is this different from just signing up for Creator?
Regular signups get the product. Founding creators get the product plus a seat at the table. If a feature you need doesn't exist, we build it or tell you why it can't be first. That access ends when the cohort closes.
Can my agency team apply as a group?
Yes. One application per organization; note in the pain-paragraph how many editors would use it. Agency-tier seats within the founding cohort get the same lifetime lock across all seats you're subscribed to at the time of joining.
