Why Upgrade
Why Upgrade To Paid?
Short answer: you get nothing extra.
Zero perks. Zero priority inbox. Zero special Discord.
Every issue stays free forever, exactly as you’re reading it now.
So why does the paid button even exist?
It exists because I spend 8-12 hours every single week turning the firehose of AI noise into something sharp, honest, and actually worth your time. Your $5/month is the only thing that keeps me from having to:
Take sponsorships.
Shove 10x more affiliate links in your face.
Promote fancy “guru” courses.
Beg my clients for more work.
That’s it.
If you’ve ever read an issue and thought “damn, I’m glad this exists,” that’s the entire reason to upgrade.
What actually happens when you click paid:
I cry happy tears.
I send you one short thank-you email that says “holy shit thank you” and asks if there’s anything specific you want me to write about (reply optional).
The newsletter stays exactly the same for everyone.
$5/month or $40/year (you pick).
No hard feelings if you don’t. Seriously. I know times are tough. Just keep enjoying the free issues.
That’s the whole deal.
