Pricing & billing

How much does AfterLaunch cost?
AfterLaunch has one paid plan: Founder, at $99 a month. Before you pay anything you get a free Growth Snapshot that shows where you stand across AI engines, search, and your main channels, plus a 14-day trial of the full product. If it is earning its place after two weeks, Founder continues the work at $99 a month. Cancel any time, no annual commitment.
What do I get with the free Snapshot?
A full AI visibility diagnostic for any URL, generated in about 60 seconds with no signup. The snapshot covers four AI engines (ChatGPT, Perplexity, Claude, Google AI Overviews), an SEO audit, competitor landscape, and five concrete actions ordered by leverage. It is a one-time diagnostic. The continuous monitoring, the growth Feed, the drafting, and the proof layer all sit in the Founder plan, and your 14-day trial lets you try them before you pay.
What does the Founder plan include?
Founder is your always-on growth agent. It tracks your AI visibility, SEO, competitors, and channels every week and keeps a prioritised Feed of growth work, so there is always a clear next step. It drafts posts for LinkedIn, X, Reddit, and Hacker News in your voice, lets you refine anything in Studio, and connects your Google Analytics and Search Console to show which work actually moved your numbers. Everything it suggests is grounded in your snapshot, your voice, and your own data. The 14-day trial is free, no card required.
Can I justify $99 a month before I have revenue?
That is the stage AfterLaunch is built for. It runs your growth work every week instead of the hours you do not have or a marketer you cannot hire yet. Start on the free Snapshot to see the gaps, run the 14-day trial with no card, and only continue once it is doing work you would otherwise do yourself. Cancel any time.
Is this just another AI tool that generates content?
No. Generic tools start from a blank prompt. AfterLaunch starts from your snapshot, your voice, your competitors, and your knowledge base, so the drafts sound like you and the priorities fit your product. And it does not stop at output: it connects your own analytics to show which work actually changed your numbers.
What if it does not move my numbers?
You will see that plainly. AfterLaunch connects your Google Analytics and Search Console and ties the work back to what shifted, so you are never guessing. The 14-day trial lets you watch that loop before you pay, and you can cancel any time, so a month that does not earn its place is the most you ever risk.
Can I cancel anytime?
Yes, anytime. Cancel via the customer portal link in your billing receipts or by emailing [email protected]. No calls, no forms, no retention scripts. Your subscription continues until the end of your current billing period; you keep access until then.
Do you offer refunds?
Yes. First-time subscribers get a 30-day money-back guarantee: if AfterLaunch is not right for you, email [email protected] within 30 days of your first subscription and the full amount is refunded, no questions asked. Refunds are processed within 5 business days to your original payment method; banks can take a further 3-10 business days to show it. After the 30-day window, refunds are discretionary, and cancelling keeps your access until the end of the current billing period.
How does the credits meter work, and how is it different from the subscription?
They are two separate things. The Founder subscription unlocks AfterLaunch and pays for all the always-on work it does on its own: the daily checks on how AI engines describe you, the drafts it prepares, the signals it watches around the clock. That work is always included and never touches the meter. The meter is separate: Founder includes a monthly allowance of fuel for the heavy jobs a founder chooses to run on demand, like a deep scan or a fresh snapshot. A bigger job uses more of the meter, and the weight of a job shows before it runs. The meter refills at the start of each billing month.
What uses the meter, and what is always free?
Everything AfterLaunch does on a schedule is free and part of the plan: the daily AI visibility checks, the drafts it prepares, the weekly signal scans, watching competitors and the site. Marking a move done or skipped is free too. AfterLaunch never quietly runs down the meter in the background. The meter is used only when a founder presses a button to run something heavy on demand, for example a deep AI Visibility scan, rebuilding the Growth Snapshot, writing an on-demand article, or opening a code fix. The heavier the job, the more of the meter it uses, and AfterLaunch shows that on the button before it runs.
What happens when the meter is used up?
Nothing breaks. The everyday monitoring and drafts keep running exactly as before, because those are part of the plan, not the meter. The only thing that pauses is the heavy on-demand jobs. A founder can top up any time to keep going, or wait for the meter to refill at the start of the next billing month. A used-up meter is a normal, recoverable state, never an error.
Does the meter roll over each month?
The monthly meter does not roll over. It refills at the start of each billing month, so a quiet month does not bank fuel for a busy one. Top-ups are different: those are paid for, so they stay until they are used, even after the monthly meter refills. AfterLaunch always draws from the monthly meter first and only reaches for a top-up once the monthly fuel is gone.
What happens to the meter if a job does not finish?
AfterLaunch puts the fuel back automatically. A founder only ever pays for work that actually completes. Fuel already granted is never clawed back, and top-ups stay regardless because they were paid for.
Does the $99 a month cover everything?
The always-on work is fully covered: the scheduled checks on how AI engines describe you, the drafts AfterLaunch prepares, the signals it watches around the clock. None of that costs extra and none of it ever pauses. On top of that, Founder includes a monthly allowance for the heavy jobs you choose to run on demand, like a deep scan or an extra article. The allowance refreshes each month, top-up packs are available at launch if you want more, and nothing draws on it unless you press the button.

Product

What is AfterLaunch?
AfterLaunch is an AI growth marketer for solo founders and small SaaS teams. It tracks how your product shows up across AI search engines (ChatGPT, Perplexity, Claude, Google AI Overviews), classic SEO, competitor activity, and the communities where your customers actually research. It keeps a prioritised Feed of the highest-leverage growth work, with the draft already written, so there is always a clear next step you can ship in 15 minutes.
How does AfterLaunch actually work?
Three steps. First, run a free snapshot on your URL to see where you stand across AI search engines and SEO. Second, sign up for the 14-day trial and add 1-3 writing samples so the drafts sound like you. Third, the agent keeps a prioritised Feed of growth work from the moment you finish onboarding, each item with the draft mostly written and a few observations worth knowing, so there is always a clear next step waiting.
Which AI engines does AfterLaunch track?
Four engines today: ChatGPT, Perplexity, Claude, and Google AI Overviews. Each one is tracked separately because they cite different sources. Only 11% of sites are cited by both ChatGPT and Perplexity, so single-engine optimisation misses most of the AI discovery surface. AfterLaunch shows your visibility, citation rate, sentiment, and competitor coverage per engine.
How quickly does the agent start working?
Right away. The moment you finish onboarding, the agent runs your first scans and starts filling your Feed with prioritised growth work, usually within a few minutes. From there it refreshes as new scans land, so there is always a current next step, with a short morning note to point you back to the top.
How does AfterLaunch match my writing voice?
During onboarding you drop in 1-3 writing samples (tweets, emails, product descriptions, anything that sounds like you). The agent uses those samples as the reference for every draft, so the copy reads like something you would have written. The richer your samples, the closer the voice match. You can update your samples anytime from the Voice samples tile in your dashboard.
How long before I see results?
Voice samples and snapshot diagnostics produce immediate value: your Feed fills with prioritised work within minutes and the diagnostic shows you exactly where you stand right now. AI visibility shifts take longer, typically weeks to months of consistent compound-mention work across third-party surfaces like Reddit, podcasts, and review sites. SEO movement is similar. AfterLaunch makes the work visible and concrete; the compounding takes time and consistent effort.
