The first module is free on purpose

Free trials usually mean a countdown and a credit card. Ours doesn't. The first module of the Academy is free with an account, and it comes with a starter set of the plugins, skills, and e-books that run through the rest of the course.

Why give away tools

Because the tools are the lesson. You can't really teach Claude-native building with screenshots — you teach it by handing someone a working plugin and having them use it. The free module is a true sample of the method, not a teaser.

If it clicks, the rest of the course is a short step. If it doesn't, you've lost nothing and kept some genuinely useful tools. That's a fair trade either way.
