FAQ

Pricing FAQs

Clear answers about free access, paid access, ownership, pace, and what you actually need before you begin.

Free access lets you begin with the opening week and understand our method before paying. Paid access unlocks the full course journey and premium modules so you can continue into the deeper build and final product stages.

It is currently a one-time payment. Paid access is positioned as lifetime access rather than a subscription, with fixed pricing shown in GBP, EUR, and USD.

For most people, yes. Starting with the Free Introductory Week is the best way to understand the approach first, then upgrade once you feel confident the structure fits you.

No. Our default path is local-first, so you can begin building on your own machine without paying for hosting straight away. Hosting becomes relevant later when it serves the project rather than distracting from learning.

Yes. The goal is for the product to become yours to shape, improve, and continue after the course rather than leaving you with a locked demo owned by someone else’s platform.

Because you need a verified account before purchase is completed. That helps us keep access and course unlocks tied cleanly to a real user account.

No. The five-week framing describes the course path and progression, not a rigid deadline. We encourage you to move at a steady pace, return to the bigger picture when needed, and learn in manageable pieces.

No. We designed Vibe Code Academy for complete beginners, so we start by making the setup, tools, and workflow feel manageable before we move into deeper technical work. You are not expected to arrive already confident with coding.
