Bigger crews get bigger plans. Prices on launch day.
Build hours are the time your AI's workshop, a small server of your own, is running.
Ape's fine print: Planned starting prices. They can change before launch, and the line hears first. Hosting your finished app is billed at cost plus a small fee. Your AI is your own plan or key. A card unlocks the free hours and keeps the bots out.
Four steps. No shortcuts.
One email. Click the link we send. You're in line.
Every friend who confirms moves you up. Nothing else does.
The top ten go in, ten at a time, a week or two before launch.
Everyone else goes in, in order. Friends still move you up.
Ape's fine print: Ten at a time in the beta, ranked by friends brought. Fake signups go to the back of the line.
The top 10. They brought friends.
Only people who said yes show up here. Everyone else is an anonymous ape.
Ask the ape.
When do I get in?
A beta of ten at a time opens a week or two before launch. Then everyone else, in order. Friends get you there faster.
What does it cost?

No. Friends are the only way up. Not even our moms skip.

When they confirm their email. Duplicates, fakes and throwaway addresses don't.
