Questions

Pricing FAQ

What's included in the free plan?

The full AM Foundations course, the first module of every Pro course, checkpoint quizzes, and progress tracking — free forever with a free account. No credit card required.

What does Pro unlock?

Every module of every live course — process-specific DfAM for FDM, multi-material design, and each new course as it ships — for one subscription. New courses in development (SLA/DLP, SLS/MJF, metal PBF, binder jetting, DED) are included the day they go live.

Can I cancel anytime?

Yes. Manage or cancel any time from the self-serve billing portal on your account page. You keep Pro access until the end of the period you've paid for.

Do you offer team or enterprise plans?

Yes — team access with centralized invoicing, plus implementation engagements that train your engineers against your machines, materials, and release gates. Book a strategy call to scope it.

Can I expense this to my company?

Yes. You'll receive an itemized receipt for every payment, and annual billing makes it a single line item most training budgets approve without escalation.

Do new courses cost extra?

No. Every course in development — SLA/DLP, SLS/MJF, metal PBF, binder jetting, and DED — is included with Pro the day it ships, at no extra charge. Your subscription only gets more valuable over time.

What if Pro isn't right for me?

Cancel any time in two clicks from your account — you keep access through the end of the period you've paid for, and you're never billed again. The free plan (AM Foundations end-to-end) stays yours regardless.

How is this different from free YouTube tutorials?

Tutorials show you one part. Our courses teach the transferable, process-specific design rules — orientation, tolerances, materials, release evidence — as a structured path with checkpoints, so your team designs printable, releasable parts without trial and error. For hands-on work on your own machines, that's what implementation engagements add.
