Help Center: Founder Outreach Previews, Quota Management & Paddle Billing v2

Welcome to the Swayd Editorial Engine. This guide walks you through reviewing your bespoke editorial carousel, unlocking complete slide narratives, and managing your workspace credits and billing.

1. Reviewing Your Bespoke Carousel Preview (/preview/[token])

If you received a personalized preview link from the Swayd Editorial team:

  • Open Your Private Magic Link:
  • Click the link sent to your email (https://tryswayd.com/preview/[token]).
  • No login, password, or credit card is required to inspect your slides.
  • Inspect Market Signals & Brand DNA:
  • At the top of your preview page, you will see real customer friction signals mined from online discussions in your niche (Reddit, customer reviews, search queries).
  • Swayd extracted your brand colors, typography tokens, and core value proposition directly from your public channels.
  • Examine Rendered Slides 1–3 in 1K HD:
  • The first three slides—the Hook Pattern Interrupt, the Category Teardown, and the Core Framework—are already fully rendered in crisp 1K HD.
  • Hover over or inspect each slide to see the layout structure and typographical hierarchy.

    • 2. Generating Slides 4–9 On-Demand (Free)

    The complete narrative arc (Slides 4 through 9) is already pre-written and structured specifically for your brand:

  • Scroll to the Stage 2: Pre-Compiled Slides section.
  • Review the locked headline previews showing the exact editorial copy written for your brand.
  • Click "✨ Generate Slides 4–9 Now":
  • Swayd dispatches parallel generation workers using Slide 1 as a visual anchor to guarantee optical consistency.
  • Watch the preview update in real-time as each slide transitions from locked to publication-ready.
  • Once completed, click "Download All Slides Free" to save high-resolution PNGs directly to your device.

    • 3. Claiming Your Swayd Command Center ($19 for Month 1)

    To continue generating autonomous editorial carousels and customize slides with our interactive bounding-box canvas:

  • Click "Claim Your Swayd Command Center — $19 for Month 1".
  • A secure Paddle Checkout Overlay will appear with the $30 launch discount automatically applied ($19 for Month 1, normally $49/mo).
  • Complete your payment using credit card, Apple Pay, Google Pay, or PayPal.
  • Your account is activated instantly:
  • Your pre-rendered brand profile, customer signals, and projects are transferred directly into your private workspace.
  • Your workspace is credited with 225 generation credits and 60 edit credits.

    • 4. Understanding Generation & Edit Credits

    Every Swayd workspace operates on an atomic credit ledger visible in the top navigation bar:

  • Generation Credits: Used when compiling and rendering new carousels from raw signals (1 credit per rendered slide).
  • Edit Credits: Used in the Interactive Canvas Studio when modifying specific bounding boxes (copy, objects, badges, or backgrounds).
  • Real-Time Quota Meter: The top navigation bar displays your live credits and automatically updates whenever generations or edits complete.
  • Billing Cycle Reset: Unused allowances automatically refresh at the beginning of each 30-day billing cycle.

    • 5. Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

    Q1: Is the preview truly free to explore?

    Yes. You can view Slides 1–3, generate Slides 4–9, and download the finished graphics completely free of charge without entering any credit card information.

    Q2: Why are Slides 1–3 rendered first while Slides 4–9 are locked?

    We pre-render the initial hook and problem teardown so you can immediately inspect the visual style, typography, and brand alignment. The remaining slides are pre-written in copy and box coordinates, ready to be rendered in parallel when you click the unlock button.

    Q3: What payment methods does Paddle Billing support?

    Paddle is our Merchant of Record and supports all major credit/debit cards (Visa, Mastercard, American Express), Apple Pay, Google Pay, and PayPal across 200+ countries.

    Q4: Can I cancel my subscription after Month 1?

    Yes. You can cancel your subscription at any time with a single click from your workspace settings or directly through the Paddle subscription management email. You retain full ownership and rights to all carousels generated.

    Q5: What happens to my pre-rendered carousel after I checkout?

    Upon checkout completion, the Paddle webhook transfers ownership of the brand profile and all generated slide assets into your authenticated workspace, giving you immediate access to the Obsidian Canvas Studio, multi-ratio export (4:5, 9:16, 2:3, LinkedIn PDF), and social publishing tools.
