Quick start, credits, report tiers, and billing — in one page.
Quick start
Three steps to your first startup validation report.
- Sign up or sign in with email or a connected account.
- On the home page or /evaluate, describe your startup idea — one sentence is enough; clearer input yields better output. Or paste a competitor URL on Competitive analysis.
- Choose a report tier: Basic Report (quick overview) or Full Report (complete evidence chain).
- Wait for generation (Full Report may take a few minutes). You can leave and return when it is ready under My research.
- Read the report: focus on conclusions, evidence chains, and Materials (sources).
- Next: refine your idea from risk points, or validate a new direction.
What are credits?
Credits pay for reports and tools.
- Credits are the universal balance for report generation and some tools.
- How to earn: sign-up bonus, daily check-in, purchases, and referrals (when available).
- How they are spent: Basic Report / Full Report by tier; some tools per use (see each tool page).
- Failed runs are not charged — credits are refunded automatically when generation fails.
- Check your balance in the account menu or under Credits & billing.
Basic Report vs Full Report
Basic Report for a quick read; Full Report for evidence-backed depth.
Basic Report
- Overview depth with key conclusions.
- Fewer data sources.
- Best for quickly screening an idea.
- Lower credit cost (see Pricing).
Full Report
- Full chapters plus evidence chains.
- Multi-source collection and cross-checking.
- Best when you are serious or need to show others.
- Higher credit cost (see Pricing).
- Tip: start with Basic Report to explore, then upgrade to Full Report when the direction looks promising.
Billing
Pay per use — no subscription. Packs and refunds.
- No monthly subscription. You buy credits when you need them, then spend them per report or tool run.
- Credit packs and current per-report prices are on the Pricing page — numbers always come from the live credit economy.
- Refunds and order disputes follow our payment provider policies.
- For how we handle account data, see the Privacy policy.
