Checkout configuration
Self-serve checkout is configuration-ready through NEXT_PUBLIC_EMPIRE_CHECKOUT_INDIVIDUAL_URL and NEXT_PUBLIC_EMPIRE_CHECKOUT_PRO_URL. Until those URLs are configured, paid-plan actions route to launch-access capture rather than pretending payment is live.
What paid users should expect
The product should earn trust through price transparency, reproducible methodology, and conservative claims. Public ROI and win-rate claims should remain gated until sample sizes are durable, outcome data is complete, and users can audit the calculation path.
Not a pick-selling launch
EmpirePicks is positioned as a market analytics platform. The board shows posted price, fair line, gap, opportunity, book coverage, confidence, and freshness so users can evaluate decisions rather than consume unsupported predictions.
