Membership
What membership looks like.
FITools is a yearly membership, paid up front. There's no free trial because I want members who already know they want to be here, and there's no monthly plan because the methodology doesn't reward people who dip in and out. Here's how the two tiers work and what you actually get.
Founding Member access — $1,000 / year
FITools is currently accepting a small number of founding members at $1,000 off the $2,000 standard rate. The discount is locked for life as long as your membership stays active. When the standard rate eventually goes up (and it should, because the tool will keep getting better), your rate doesn't.
What founding members get:
- The tool. Everything FITools does today: screener, position tracking, the full workflow.
- A direct line to me. You email me and you reach me directly, the person who built the tool, not a support queue or a chatbot. This works because I'm intentionally keeping the founding group small.
- Influence over the roadmap. Founding-member requests get built, not "considered." Your workflows and frustrations shape what ships next.
- Access to everything I build, forever. Future modules, new screeners, anything added down the line, all included. No upsell, no premium tier on top.
- Price locked for life. Your $1,000 rate doesn't change at renewal as long as your membership stays active.
Standard membership — $2,000 / year
Once the founding group closes, new members come in at the standard rate. Same tool, same access to everything FITools does. The difference is the level of access to me. Standard members get support through normal channels, not a direct line, because at any scale beyond the founding cohort that isn't a promise I can keep.
If you're reading this and the founding tier is still open, joining now is the better deal, not as a sales gimmick, but because the founding rate is permanent and the direct access is real.
Six-month money-back guarantee
Use FITools for up to six months. Use the screener. Track positions. See if it changes how you find and manage opportunities. If it doesn't deliver enough value, for whatever reason, email me and I'll refund your membership in full.
The only condition is that you've genuinely used the tools. Not signed up and never logged in, but actually put them to work in your process. I may reference your account activity to confirm that when reviewing a refund. Beyond the six-month window, if you cancel I'll prorate a refund of the unused portion of your year. I'm not interested in collecting money from people who aren't using the product.
The advice boundary
FITools provides educational content and tool feedback only — not personalized investment advice. Don is not a registered investment advisor.
In practice that means I can talk about methodology, how the tool works, and the kinds of decisions sellers face. I won't tell you whether a specific trade is right for your situation, comment on your positions, or make personalized recommendations. If you want advice about your specific financial situation, talk to a qualified financial advisor.
