Frequently Asked Questions
What exactly is the Founder's Pass?
The Founder's Pass is an optional early-supporter offer for AI-GameFriend while the product is still pre-1.0. It does not mean every experimental integration is ready today; every surface keeps its own status label.
Do I still need my own API key?
Yes, AI-GameFriend uses a BYOK (Bring Your Own Key) model. You provide your Claude, GPT, Grok, or Gemini API key. The Founder's Pass covers platform access; API costs are separate and typically $0.01-0.15 per game turn depending on the game and model.
What if I don't like it? Is there a refund?
Absolutely. We offer a 30-day, no-questions-asked money-back guarantee. If AI-GameFriend isn't for you, we'll refund your full $49.
When does AI-GameFriend launch?
AI-GameFriend v0.9.9 is in release-candidate QA. Public launch is not ready until core gates, consent behavior, and experimental integrations are verified.
Will the price increase?
Pricing may change after release-candidate QA. The current offer is for early supporters and does not change which features are verified today.
What games are supported at launch?
The safest starting points are chess, freeform/chat modes, manual strategy advisors, sample scenarios, Strategy Brief, and Decision Duel. Slay the Spire Watch and other integrations are experimental or gated until retested.
Can I use multiple AI providers?
Yes. Supported modes can use Claude, GPT, Grok, or Gemini through BYOK. Availability depends on the mode and your provider configuration.
