Founding Preview

Your ladder, your academy — the whole map, up front.

This is the exact structure founding members climb: 7 rungs, each with the skill it teaches, the tool that automates the heavy half, and what it unlocks — and the 9 academy modules with their full outlines.

Honest label: this is the founding preview. The map is real and complete; personal progress tracking — your rung state, your checklists, your channel numbers — arrives with member accounts in the next slice. Nothing here pretends to track you yet. Want in when accounts open? Join the founding cohort.
