Pick a single creative track for $99, or unlock the whole studio for $149. Two months of AI partner included — enough to finish two or three projects, depending on what they build.
Both options are one-time purchases. Both include two months of AI partner. The choice is whether they already know what they want to make.
Pick Game, Story, Site, or Movie. The full builder, engine, and AI partner for that medium. Yours for life.

Tell and Show is structured so the answer to “what does this actually cost to use?” is the price on the page — not the price after the upsell.
The complete builder, engine, and AI partner workflow for every medium you bought. Bug fixes and feature improvements within v1 are included.
Ready from purchase. Enough credit to finish two or three projects. After that, continue at $30/month — or keep building with your own Claude or ChatGPT.
Every finished project publishes to a real Tell and Show URL. No domain to buy. No deploy command to learn. Parent approval gates the publish step.
One parent account, multiple kid profiles. Projects, save points, and approvals live together. Add a sibling for $49.
Ask for one change. See exactly what changed. Decide whether it belongs. The method stays constant; the medium changes. Skills transfer.
Build levels, tune difficulty, playtest one change at a time. Publish a game friends can play.

The software keeps working. Your kid can continue building with your own Claude or ChatGPT account, or extend the managed AI partner for $30/month. Most kids finish two or three projects inside the bundled period.
One-time. Yours for life within v1. No card stored. No renewal date. New features within the version line land as updates; major new features may be paid add-ons.
Buy the single track for $99. If they pivot, add another medium later at $99 each. The bundle discount is only at first purchase, but the per-track price never changes.
Yes — that’s the design. The kid drives. You approve publish. You can review finished projects whenever you want. You don’t have to sit next to them.
Yes. Tell and Show is web-first — it runs in any modern browser. There’s a desktop app for families who prefer it, but the studio is the same either way.
14-day refund, no questions. Email Jim directly — there’s no support ticket queue to route through. Full policy at /refund.
