STRAE
LOS
Straelos ships at $399, once, when it launches publicly. The five people who join this beta never pay that. Not now, not after launch, not ever.
What "for life" actually means
No licence fee, ever — not the $399, not any future price change. Everything unlocked, same as everyone who pays.
In return: real use during the test window. Try to break it, tell us what's confusing, be reachable if we have questions.

How this compares
Stan Store's checkout is polished. Skool's community feed is genuinely fun to use. Neither lets you keep your own domain, your own data, or your own Stripe account.

What three years actually costs
Same core job — storefront, courses, community, email — priced out for three years on a representative plan from each, assuming $2,000/month in sales. Gumroad and Whop charge a percentage of sales instead of a flat fee, shown here in dollars at that revenue level with the rate alongside it.
Straelos is one payment — $399, once. It doesn't grow with time.
Apply for a spot
We'll email you either way once we've reviewed applications — whether you're one of the five or not.
Questions
Why only five?
We want direct feedback from a small group before this goes out broadly, not survey data from thousands.
What happens to my site after beta?
You keep it, and you keep the licence. Nothing changes when the beta ends and the $399 price goes live for everyone else.
What if I'm not one of the five?
We'll let you know either way. Applicants who aren't chosen can buy the licence once it launches.
Is there a catch?
You're testing pre-release software during November–January. Expect some rough edges and fast fixes, not a catch.
Do I need to leave my current platform right away?
No. Move at your own pace — the point of the beta is real use, not a deadline.
