Which plan to choose: an analysis by task rather than by a list of modules

A table of tick boxes does not answer the question of what to take: it shows how the plans differ rather than which one you need. Below is an analysis by situation — from starting with no experience to working with corporate clients, and three ways to get what you need without buying a plan.

A comparison table that explains nothing

You open the pricing page and see five columns of tick boxes. Each contains the names of sections you do not yet know. Choosing from a table like that is impossible: it is unclear what of it you need and what you will never open.

One of two things usually follows. Either the person takes the most expensive one — just in case, "so everything is definitely there" — and uses a tenth of it. Or takes nothing and leaves.

So the analysis below is built the other way round: not from plans to tasks but from tasks to plans. Find your situation and take what is written under it.

First, three ways not to buy a plan

People usually miss these, and they cover some cases entirely.

Guest access. Catalogues, descriptions, course programmes, assistant and skill cards are visible without registering. The blog is fully open. If you simply need to understand what exists, there is nothing to pay for.

Free registration. Three days of the Basic plan switch on with one button, no card needed — not a demo but the full plan.

One-off purchase and experience points. Any advanced skill or template opens three ways: by plan, one-off for $9, or for 1 000 experience points earned by working on the platform. If you need one specific skill, a plan is not obligatory.

Separately: generation is paid from the wallet rather than by plan. Debited for what was done, the cost visible before you press, money returned to your balance on a failure, top-ups from $5. A month with no work costs nothing.

How to know it is time to move up

Easiest by symptom rather than by calendar.

From Basic to Plus — when for the second time in a month you are assembling a landing page or a batch of visuals to order and catch yourself doing the same thing from scratch. Templates save an evening on every such job.

From Plus to Creator+ — when a client asks not for work but for a tool: "build us an assistant that will answer our customers". That is a different service and a different fee.

To Full — when the client has become a company and the task sounds like "connect our systems to each other".

The reverse sign is useful too: if in a month you have not opened a single section you are paying extra for, you took the plan for later.

The analysis by task

"I want to start earning, I have no experience"

Your plan is Basic, $79 a month.

What is in it for you: chats with all 200+ assistants across 14 categories, the prompt texts, the skill files, the ten-lesson sales module and six foundational express courses — including "Freelancer positioning" and "Freelance 2.0".

Why that one: the whole path from positioning to a first job is conversations and documents. Assistants, courses, scripts. Nothing added by the higher plans will be needed at this stage.

Start with the three free days. They are enough to work through "Freelancer positioning" and come out with a finished package: a niche, a client avatar, a portfolio, profile texts, a plan for the first jobs.

"I am already taking work, I need visuals and sites in volume"

Your plan is Plus, $99 a month.

What is added to Basic: prompts for site and application interface templates, courses on video models.

Why: as soon as you are delivering visuals and pages to clients, you need templates rather than advice. A prompt for a landing page template saves an evening on every job, and you already have several such jobs a month.

The decision threshold is simple: if you do more than two or three visual or web jobs a month, Plus pays for itself with one of them.

"I want to build my own assistants and sell them"

Your plan is Creator, $139 a month.

What is added: advanced skills, automation templates for n8n and Make, links to Open Source solutions and creating your own AI assistants. This is the move from "I take ready-made" to "I make a solution for a specific client".

Why this is about money rather than interest: an assistant for a specific business's task is no longer a one-off job for fifty dollars but a service. By the Parselona feed (5 986 jobs over 4 months) a system or a pipeline costs $490–1 460.

"I automate processes for businesses"

Your plan is Full, $599 a year ($699 from 1 December 2026).

The whole stack, including advanced automation templates and the AI SKILLS connector for Claude. This is the level at which you sell not work and not even a service but a system: links between services, handling enquiries, reporting.

The plan for those whose client is a company rather than a person.

"I need one specific tool"

No plan needed. A one-off purchase for $9 or 1 000 experience points. That is an honest route and it was deliberately left open.

What is in each plan, briefly

If a summary is wanted after all — here it is, without tick boxes.

Free. Catalogues and descriptions of every section, course programmes, the whole blog. Registration adds three days of Basic.

Basic. Skill files for Claude Code, prompt texts, chats with every AI assistant, six foundational express courses, the ten-lesson sales module.

Plus. Everything in Basic plus prompts for site and application interface templates, courses on video models.

Creator+. Advanced skills, n8n and Make automation templates, links to Open Source, creating your own assistants.

Full. The whole stack, including advanced automation templates and the AI SKILLS connector for Claude.

Prices: Basic $79 a month, Plus $99, Creator $139, Make and N8N $190 each, Full $599 a year ($699 from 1 December 2026).

A running principle: a guest sees every section and every description — only the files themselves are closed. So before buying you can always look at what is in there.

How not to overpay for a plan

Three rules that save more than choosing the right column.

Do not take a plan for later. The most common mistake is buying a higher one "so everything is definitely there". Sections you have not grown into you will not open, and the money will be debited. The one-tool rule applies here too: take it for what you are doing now, not for what you intend to do some day.

Move up on what you earn. Basic until the first payment, Plus when visual jobs number several a month, Creator+ when a client asks for an assistant of his own. Every move should be the consequence of a job rather than of an intention.

Check whether it is already included. People regularly buy separately what sits in their plan. Before paying for a course or a skill, look at what you genuinely do not have.

Three mistakes that cost money

Buying a course already included in your plan. Six foundational express courses sit in Basic, video model courses in Plus. A separate $9 purchase is needed only when the course is above your plan.

Paying for a plan for the sake of generations. Generation is paid from the wallet separately and does not depend on the plan. If all you need is images and clips, a plan may not be needed at all.

Accumulating experience points and not using them. 1 000 points is any advanced skill or template free. People collect them and forget they convert.

Which plan to take today

Do not choose a plan. Register and open three days of Basic — that is enough to understand what you will actually use. After three days the question "which plan" turns from abstract into specific: you already know where you went every day and where you never went at all.

And one observation to finish. People for whom it does not work almost never choose the wrong plan. They go wrong earlier — buying access instead of getting to a first job. Access does not substitute for positioning, a platform and an application sent.

If you know somebody stuck on the pricing page, forward this to them. What has to be chosen is a task rather than a column.


The exact contents of each plan

So there is no guessing from tick boxes — here is what is included.

Basic

Courses: “Earning with ready templates” · “Introduction and theory” · “Basic prompting” · “Sales” · “Advanced prompting”, plus the catalogue of pre-configured AI assistants.

Express courses (six): Perplexity as an investigation tool · Grok: trend search · Prompt engineering: a basic course · Encyclopaedia of AI tools (198 services) · Freelancer packaging · Freelance 2.0.

What it gives in practice. Eight GPT spreadsheet templates, including "1+1=11" — a sheet that produces over fifty documents from one product description. The assistant library with "Sales" and "Freelance" folders. And ten sales lessons: the four client types, objections, rejections, selling without case histories, a real call taken apart.

Who for. Those who have not yet taken work. Everything needed from "I can" to a first payment is here.

Plus

Courses: everything in Basic plus “Photo and Video”, “Editing”, “Automator”.

Express courses: plus Midjourney from zero to control · ChatGPT Images & Nano Banana · Google Veo 3 · Video models 2.0 (Kling 3.0 and Seedance 2.0).

What it gives. Eighteen editing lessons, including an analysis of the first two seconds and why 7 clips out of 10 gain reach. Eleven “Automator” lessons — from analysing reports and contracts to transcription. Plus site templates and application interfaces.

Who for. Those earning from content: clips, listings, visuals, editing.

Creator

Courses: everything in Plus plus “AI Assistants” and “VIBE CODING”.

Express courses: plus Personal AI bureau · Google Gemini + a team of 12 Gems · Claude: from the first prompt to your own library of mega-abilities · AI Agents: the electrification of routine.

And most of all, n8n and Make automation templates, links to Open Source solutions and advanced skills.

What it gives. Five lessons of the “AI Assistants” course: system instructions, copywriting, scriptwriting, marketing, Sendpulse. Plus the ability to create your own assistants for a company.

Who for. Those selling not work but a system: positioning, assistants, funnels.

Make

Everything in Creator plus the course “Automations in Make” in full: 23 lessons, from the first scenario to webhooks, error handling, the data store and three practical tutorials. The n8n course is not included.

Express courses: plus OpenClaw; AI Agents is already open from Creator.

Both n8n and Make templates open on this plan (regular ones; advanced ones on Full, or for $9 or 1000 XP).

What you end up with. The course and the template catalogue: a template is imported as a file, you enter your own credentials and switch it on.

N8N

Likewise everything in Creator plus the course “Automations in n8n” in full: 31 lessons, from workflow basics to AI agents, RAG agents, debugging and subworkflows. The Make course is not included.

Express courses: plus OpenClaw; AI Agents is already open from Creator.

The skills you come out with differ from Make: deployment on your own server through Docker and a VPS, corporate document search systems on vector bases, enterprise-grade resilient automations.

What the catalogue has for this course. The RAG pipeline for Google Drive documents and sales team monitoring across chats and calls (an advanced template: Full, or $9, or 1000 XP).

Full

All the training courses together: both the Make and n8n courses, plus “Working with AI software” (local installation and use of Stable Diffusion and ComfyUI). All fifteen express courses. All advanced templates and skills, the AI SKILLS connector for Claude.

Who for. Those building private environments for companies — that needs both platforms and local deployment.

The generation sections — Gen AI and Cerebrum — run from the wallet independently of the plan. Top up from $5, debited on usage.

Separately from any plan: any express course, advanced skill or template — $9 one-off or 1000 XP, accrued from learning.

How to choose in one minute

Have not taken work yet → Basic. Sales, Freelance 2.0 and assistants are here — the whole path to a first payment.

Earning from content → Plus. Editing, video, the automator.

Selling a system rather than work → Creator. Your own assistants, automation templates and Open Source.

Integrations with services and CRMs → Make. The Make course and templates for both platforms.

Your own server, privacy, large volumes → N8N. RAG and self-hosting.

Working with corporations → Full.

Undecided between Make and N8N → the "AI Agents" express course for $9: four platforms at once, and after it the choice is obvious.
