Approval

Questionnaire

While your account is pending, a banner prompts you to complete a short questionnaire. This helps us understand your use case and prioritize approvals.

The questionnaire asks about:

  • AI tools you currently use
  • Monthly AI spend
  • Pain points you’re looking to solve

Most questions are multiple-choice. There are also optional questions about the models, languages, and platforms you work with. Providing detailed answers — especially in the free-text fields — improves your approval score.

Approval Score

After submitting the questionnaire, you’ll see your score and a breakdown of how it’s calculated. The score is based on:

Improving Your Score

To increase your approval priority:

  1. Add a payment method — worth 30 points, the single biggest factor. You won’t be charged until you start a trial.
  2. Complete all optional questions — more signal helps.
  3. Write detailed pain point descriptions — 50+ characters earns bonus points.
  4. Use a work email on your GitHub account — free email providers (Gmail, Yahoo, etc.) trigger a manual review flag.

Getting Approved

Approval is manual — an admin reviews your score and activates your account. You’ll receive an email when your status changes to enabled.

Once approved, you can start your trial.
