For a 5-person marketing team: Free estimates ~$1,000/mo of public list-price software for site, SEO/AEO, insights, and content tooling (lean–mid kit). Live is the fuller ~$1,100/mo kit on your own domain. Software estimates that kit plus ads ops, outbound, and LinkedIn seats (~$3,000/mo typical; savings vs $500). Managed adds the AI API / credit cost to produce a similar month of channel output (~2,000 actions; often ~$2,000–4,000 in frontier-model credits alone) on top of the Software kit. Ad media budget is never included. Breakdown: /answers/yg3-fact-sheet.
Running more than one location or brand? Start each on Free or Live. Add Software or Managed only where you need spend and send.
Free has no time limit and publishes on a YG3-hosted address. Live is month to month. Software and Managed are seven days free, then renew unless you cancel, month to month with no annual contract. Your ad budget stays in your own account and is never part of this.

Questions people actually ask.
Is Free read-only? Does it actually publish?
Free publishes. You create a workspace and put the site live on a YG3-hosted address. Audiences, voice, competitors, and AI search are included. The YG3 badge stays on. There is no card and no time limit. Free is not a preview that cannot ship.
What is the difference between Free and Live?
Free is your workspace on a YG3-hosted address, badge on. Live is $20 a month for your own domain, the canonical production URL search should see, and the badge off. Same workspace. Live is not Software — it does not unlock ads, outbound, LinkedIn, or sending to a real person.
When do Ads, outbound, and LinkedIn start?
Software ($500/mo). Live is domain, canonical, badge off, and presence. Software adds Google Ads write, outbound email, LinkedIn publish, and send to a real person. Managed is Software plus the AI running those channels with a certified partner. Live is not Software.
So what am I paying for on Live vs Software?
Live is your address: custom domain, canonical URL, badge off, presence tools, keep publishing. Software is Live plus the channels that spend and send. Do not buy Software for a domain — that is the $20 plan.
Do I need to be technical?
No. If you can read an email and click approve, you can run this. The AI does the production work. You make the calls that need a human, which is deciding what is good enough to go out.
How fast will I see something real?
On Free you can publish on a YG3-hosted address as soon as the workspace is up. Custom domain is Live. Drafts on Software and Managed land within days of connecting your business. You approve them, they publish.
Will it actually sound like me?
It trains on your voice from the first day and gets sharper with every edit you approve. It does not write in a generic voice, and it does not invent facts to fill a gap.
What is the difference between Software and Managed?
On Software you drive the channels yourself. On Managed the engine is turned on and runs those channels for you, and a certified partner handles your setup and success. Same platform underneath. Both include everything on Live.
What happens if I cancel?
You keep everything. Every article, list, and asset is yours to export. There is no penalty, no lock-in, and nothing held hostage.
Where do the “Saves $X/mo” numbers come from?
They estimate what a 5-person marketing team typically pays at public list prices for the same jobs. Free is ~$1,000/mo of site, SEO/AEO, insights, and content tooling; Live is the fuller ~$1,100/mo kit on your own domain. Software adds ads ops, outbound, and LinkedIn (~$3,000/mo typical). Managed also comps the AI API credits it takes to produce a similar month of channel output (~2,000 hands-free actions; often another ~$2,000–4,000 in frontier-model spend). Ad media budget is never in these figures.
