Last updated September 2, 2026
Made paid reports easier to judge and safer to try
By Steve Elliott, founder of DeadByAI
- Added a direct comparison with free risk-score tools and career coaching.
- Replaced the refund-review process with a 30-day money-back guarantee.
- Extended private download access to 90 days, or 180 days for the Blueprint.
- Rebuilt the plan comparison as readable mobile cards on small screens.
Why it matters: A career report should be clear before purchase, available for the full planning window, and easy to leave if it is not useful.
Showed the product before asking people to trust it
By Steve Elliott, founder of DeadByAI
- Put a live example scan beside the homepage search.
- Added transparent three-tier pricing and downloadable sample reports.
- Published the founder profile and sourced product-comparison pages.
Why it matters: People can now see the kind of task evidence and paid deliverable they will receive before they spend anything.
Made paid guidance follow the buyer's actual work
By Steve Elliott, founder of DeadByAI
- Reworked reports so selected tasks, experience, career goal, and occupation evidence change the recommendations.
- Tightened the checks that reject generic or irrelevant guidance.
Why it matters: A paid plan is only useful when it responds to the work a buyer actually does, not a generic job-title summary.
Put proof before payment
By Steve Elliott, founder of DeadByAI
- Moved concrete report evidence and personalization choices ahead of checkout.
- Strengthened payment, support, and production-readiness checks.
Why it matters: The paid offer should be understandable and verifiable before someone reaches Stripe.
