Question 1

How do I start my first project?

Accepted Answer

Sign up, go to your dashboard, and click "New Project." Describe your business idea, target audience, and goals. The Ideation agent generates 3–5 validated concepts for you to choose from, and then the pipeline runs autonomously with 8 checkpoints where you review and approve key decisions.

Question 2

What exactly do I get when a pipeline completes?

Accepted Answer

A complete business package: production-ready code, system architecture, security audit, deployment configuration, financial projections, legal documents (Terms of Service, Privacy Policy), entity formation documents, tax strategy, go-to-market plan, and monitoring dashboards. The exact deliverables depend on your tier — Free and Starter include the 9 core product stages, while Pro adds 6 business stages.

Question 3

What are checkpoints and do I have to approve every one?

Accepted Answer

Checkpoints are the 8 moments where you make strategic decisions — like picking a business concept, approving the product vision, or confirming entity structure. The pipeline pauses until you approve, reject, or request revisions. Everything between checkpoints is fully autonomous.

Question 4

How long does a full pipeline run take?

Accepted Answer

A typical 15-stage pipeline completes in minutes to hours depending on complexity and the AI models selected. Stages run in parallel where dependencies allow — for example, Business Formation, Architecture, and Design can all run simultaneously after Product Strategy completes.

Question 5

Can I re-run individual stages or the whole pipeline?

Accepted Answer

You can request revisions at any checkpoint, which re-runs the relevant stage with your feedback incorporated. The autonomous correction loops also handle re-runs automatically when guardrails detect issues.

Question 6

What AI models power the agents?

Accepted Answer

BizBang uses OpenAI (GPT-4o, GPT-4o-mini, GPT-5.2) and Anthropic (Claude Sonnet, Claude Opus) models. Pro tier users can customize which model each agent uses, adjust temperature, token limits, and other parameters on a per-project basis via the Agent Tuning page.

Question 7

What happens if an agent fails or produces bad output?

Accepted Answer

BizBang has a 3-tier autonomous correction system. First, the agent self-corrects using guardrail feedback (handles ~80% of issues). If that fails, cross-agent loops kick in — for example, if the Security agent finds vulnerabilities, the Developer agent fixes them automatically. As a last resort, a Resolver agent diagnoses and fixes remaining issues. You never need to intervene for execution failures.

Question 8

What is agent tuning and how does it work?

Accepted Answer

Agent tuning is a Pro-tier feature that lets you customize how each agent behaves on a per-project basis. You can override the AI model, temperature, max tokens, timeout, and even append custom instructions to the system prompt. This is useful when you want more creative outputs (higher temperature) or more deterministic results (lower temperature) for specific stages.

Question 9

Can I skip stages or choose which agents run?

Accepted Answer

Your subscription tier determines which stages run: Free and Starter include the 9 core product stages (Ideation through Deployment), while Pro adds 6 business stages. You cannot skip individual stages within your tier, as each stage's output feeds into downstream agents.

Question 10

What happens if my API key credits run out mid-pipeline?

Accepted Answer

The pipeline will pause at the stage where the API call fails. You can add credits to your API key and resume the pipeline from where it stopped — no work is lost. BizBang sends you a notification when a stage fails so you can take action quickly.

Question 11

How much does it cost?

Accepted Answer

BizBang has three tiers: Free ($0, 3 projects/month, 9 agents), Starter ($49/month, 5 projects/month, 9 agents), and Pro ($149/month, unlimited projects, all 15 agents plus custom agent tuning). Free tier supports Bring Your Own Keys (BYOK) so you only pay for your own API usage.

Question 12

What does "Bring Your Own Key" mean?

Accepted Answer

All plans support Bring Your Own Key — add your OpenAI or Anthropic API keys on the Settings page and all agent costs are billed directly to your provider account. The Free plan requires BYOK to run pipelines.

Question 13

Is the Free plan really free?

Accepted Answer

Yes. The Free plan is free forever — you bring your own OpenAI or Anthropic API keys and pay your provider directly for AI usage. BizBang charges nothing on the Free tier.

Question 14

Can I change my plan anytime?

Accepted Answer

Yes, you can upgrade or downgrade your plan at any time from your account settings. Upgrades take effect immediately with automatic proration. Downgrades take effect at the end of your current billing period.

Question 15

Do you offer discounts for annual billing?

Accepted Answer

Yes — annual billing saves you 25% compared to monthly pricing on both Starter and Pro plans. The discount is automatically applied when you select yearly billing.

Question 16

What is the difference between Free/Starter and Pro?

Accepted Answer

Free and Starter run the 9 core product stages (Ideation through Deployment). Pro unlocks 6 additional business stages: Business Formation, Financial Strategy, Tax Strategy, Compliance & Legal, Go-to-Market, and Monitoring. Pro also includes custom agent tuning, letting you override model, temperature, and other parameters per agent per project.

Question 17

What happens when I run out of credits on the Free plan?

Accepted Answer

The Free plan includes a one-time grant of 500 credits at signup — there is no monthly refill. When you run out, you can buy a credit pack (available on every plan, Free included), or upgrade to Starter or Pro to receive a recurring monthly allotment. Any in-flight project pauses safely and resumes automatically once you top up.

Question 18

What payment methods do you accept?

Accepted Answer

We accept all major credit and debit cards (Visa, Mastercard, American Express, Discover) through Stripe. All payments are processed securely — BizBang never sees or stores your card details.

Question 19

What is your refund policy?

Accepted Answer

If you are unsatisfied with a paid plan, contact support within 14 days of your billing date for a full refund of that billing period. After 14 days, you can downgrade at any time and your current plan will remain active until the end of the billing cycle.

Question 20

What happens to my projects if I downgrade from Pro?

Accepted Answer

Your existing projects and their outputs are preserved and remain accessible. However, new projects will be subject to the lower tier's limits — you won't be able to run the 6 Pro-only business stages (Business Formation, Financial Strategy, Tax Strategy, Compliance & Legal, Go-to-Market, Monitoring) on new projects.

Question 21

Do unused projects roll over to the next month?

Accepted Answer

No. Monthly project limits reset at the start of each billing cycle. Unused projects do not carry over. If you regularly need more capacity, consider upgrading to a higher tier.

Question 22

Are the generated legal documents legally valid?

Accepted Answer

The legal documents (Terms of Service, Privacy Policy, compliance checklists) are professionally structured starting points generated by AI based on your jurisdiction and business type. We strongly recommend having them reviewed by a licensed attorney before relying on them for your business.

Question 23

Is the generated code production-ready?

Accepted Answer

The code passes the Security agent's audit and the QA agent's test suite before delivery. It is designed as a strong, deployable foundation — but as with any codebase, we recommend professional review before handling production traffic at scale.

Question 24

What languages and frameworks does the Developer agent use?

Accepted Answer

The Architecture agent selects the stack based on your project requirements. Typical recommendations include modern web frameworks like React/Next.js, Node.js, and Python. The specific choices depend on your use case, target audience, and scalability needs.

Question 25

Can I download the generated code and deploy it myself?

Accepted Answer

Yes. All project outputs — code, legal documents, financial models, deployment configs — are yours. You can export your full project data as JSON from the Settings page, and the Deploy agent generates deployment configurations you can use directly.

Question 26

Can I sign in with Google or GitHub?

Accepted Answer

Yes. BizBang supports Google and GitHub OAuth sign-in. If you already have an account with the same email address, your OAuth provider is automatically linked — you can sign in with either method.

Question 27

How do I reset my password?

Accepted Answer

Click "Forgot Password" on the sign-in page and enter your email. You'll receive a secure reset link that expires in 30 minutes. For security, we don't confirm whether an email is registered.

Question 28

Can I delete my account and all my data?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Go to Settings and use the account deletion option. All your data — projects, stage outputs, and personal information — will be permanently removed. This action is irreversible and compliant with GDPR and CCPA requirements.

Question 29

Can I export my projects and data?

Accepted Answer

Yes. You can download all your user data as JSON from the Settings page, including project configurations, stage outputs, and account information. API keys are automatically stripped from exports for security. Your data is always yours.

Question 30

How does BizBang handle security and data privacy?

Accepted Answer

BizBang uses enterprise-grade security including encrypted connections, Content Security Policy headers, rate limiting on all auth endpoints, and prompt injection protection. We are GDPR and CCPA compliant — you can export your data, delete your account, and control cookie preferences at any time.

Question 31

Is my business idea kept private?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Your project data is tied to your authenticated account, and all API routes verify project ownership. We do not use your project data to train models or share it with other users.

Question 32

How are my API keys stored?

Accepted Answer

Your API keys are stored securely in our database and are never included in data exports. You can test that your keys are valid and revoke them at any time from the Settings page. Keys are only used to make API calls on your behalf during pipeline execution.

Question 33

Does BizBang send my data to AI providers?

Accepted Answer

Your project inputs are sent to OpenAI and/or Anthropic for agent execution only. BizBang does not use your data for model training. Please refer to each provider's data usage policy for details on how they handle API requests.

Question 34

How do I manage cookie preferences and opt out of tracking?

Accepted Answer

Click "Cookie Preferences" in the footer to adjust your settings across four categories: Necessary, Analytics, Marketing, and Functional. A CCPA-compliant "Do Not Sell My Info" toggle is also available. Visit our Cookie Policy page at /cookies for full details.

Question 35

Will I get notified about my pipeline progress?

Accepted Answer

Yes. All plans include email notifications for pipeline completion, checkpoint reminders when your input is needed, and usage limit warnings. Pro subscribers also receive a weekly digest summarizing project activity.
