Starting price
$3.00
Monthly LOLs start small on purpose so the billing shape matters more than the price point.
Reference workspace MVP
A tiny LOL shop that pressure-tests the whole platform
This app is no longer a generic proving ground first. It is the LOL-email reference product, built deliberately small so the shared billing, auth, messaging, and analytics seams get pressure-tested by a real journey.
Delivery cadence
30
Days between subscription deliveries in the first reference-product shape.
Offer types
2
One one-time path and one recurring path are enough to pressure the product primitives.
One-time
One loud LOL by email
A single purchase that sends one deliberately tiny, delightfully unserious email.
$5.00
Pay once, trigger one delivery, keep the customer journey intentionally small.
- Best path for proving one-time checkout and receipt handling.
- Keeps messaging transactional instead of lifecycle-heavy.
Subscription
A monthly LOL subscription
A recurring plan that sends one LOL every month and keeps the customer inside the product over time.
$3.00
Renews monthly until canceled, with the customer area becoming the long-term home.
- Exercises recurring billing and renewal states.
- Creates a real reason for `/app`, account settings, and cancellation flows.
The funnel we are proving
- Land on the product story and understand the two offer shapes fast.
- Compare the one-time and monthly options without leaving the workspace app.
- Enter a route-owned checkout path instead of jumping straight to Stripe.
- Return into a product-owned success, cancel, and customer continuation flow.
Why the reference product matters
A real one-time offer and a real subscription path give the shared packages something opinionated to answer. The public pages can ship now, the route-owned checkout entry points are already reserved, and the older proving ground still lives at /lab while the product surface matures.
