The Hard Floor · the commitments we keep
What we will never do
BizBuilder runs real ad spend on real founders’ real money. That kind of trust requires its own contract — named in plain language, here, in our voice, available from every page in the product.
Promise 1
We will never make a claim about how much you’ll earn.
Not in our marketing, not in our Reading Cards, not in our case studies. The FTC has clear rules. We follow them. We also believe them.
Promise 2
We will never use your testimonial to sell to someone else without your permission.
And even with your permission, we will not select your story because of how well you did — that is the FTC rule, and it is also just the right thing.
Promise 3
We will never take a cut of your sales — no rev-share, ever.
Your revenue is yours. We charge a flat $79/month for the Engine and nothing else. We never take a percentage of what you sell, and we never mark up your ad media — every cent you are billed for ads goes straight to the ad platform, at cost. Rev-share and spend markups create a conflict of interest we refuse to carry.
Promise 4
We will never run a campaign on your accounts without your specific, scoped permission.
The Scout proposes; you press the button. Every spend is approved by you. Pause Scout halts all autonomous action.
Promise 5
We will never lock your data.
Your Stripe access, your ad accounts, your creative library — all exports on demand, at any time. You own everything you bring in and everything we observe with you. What we observe is bounded: Stripe webhooks for attributed payments, click events on your own pages where you installed the pixel, and ad-platform metrics through the account access you grant us. No off-platform tracking. No following you around the web.
Promise 6
We will never show you a recommendation without showing you why.
Every channel pick names the prior it leans on. Every Conjunction shows the evidence behind the score. No black-box Readings. Cohort priors come from the Distribution Index — see /index for the full methodology.
Promise 7
We will never use dark patterns.
No FOMO timers. No streak-shaming. No fake scarcity. No retargeting ads chasing you across the web with scarcity copy. Cancellation is one click. Exit is a button, not a maze.
