## Pricing FAQ

### Are there packs for multiple reports?
Yes: 2 reports for $89 ($44.50 each) or 5 reports for $199 ($39.80 each). Perfect if you're testing a couple of ideas or want to iterate with fresh data.

### What happens after the 3 months of Sentinel in my report?
Every Founder Report bought from October 1, 2026 includes 3 months of Sentinel, from the day you activate it. At day 30, 60 and 90, Sentinel reruns your full analysis and emails you what changed, new competitors first. Every run is kept as a dated version you can open and export. When the 3 months end, nothing renews and nothing is charged, and your history stays readable.

### What is a Starter Scan, and what does "unlimited" mean?
Before you sink weeks into the wrong idea, a Starter Scan tells you in 60 seconds whether it's worth pursuing: a viability score, market size, and your closest competitors. Every Founder Report includes unlimited scans, so you can pressure-test as many ideas as you want at no extra cost, then go deep only on the one that earns it. You get 2 free scans.

### What if the report gets a section wrong?
Fix it in place. Every section has a refine action: tell it what's off, your real persona, a channel that doesn't fit, a wrong assumption, and it re-runs just that section with your correction. Included with your report, no extra credits. You can also refine the whole idea and re-run the full analysis to see your score move.

### What's your refund policy?
Email us within 14 days. We fix the report or refund it. Once per customer.

## Refund and cancellation policy

14-day guarantee:

- Not useful? Email support@preuve.ai within 14 days and tell us why.
- We rerun it first. Still not useful? We refund it.
- Once per customer. Not after Build with AI or an export.
- Pack report: its share of the pack price. Lifetime or Starter Pro report: rerun or credit.
- Not covered: Lifetime plans, Investor Package, separate add-ons, subscriptions.
- We may refuse abusive requests.

If a cash refund is issued, paid access to that report is revoked.
