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.
