Ship or Die by Marc Lou & Jack Friks

Ship or Die is a $399 one-time 30-day builder community by Marc Lou and Jack Friks. It combines deadlines, daily check-ins, coworking, public mission profiles and a gamified roadmap to make shipping a small app the default behavior. For a builder who can already put a small app online but keeps not doing it, that is worth the money; for anyone still learning to build, it is the wrong purchase.

Amazon Advertisements For Books Course by Dave Chesson & Janet Margot

Dave Chesson's Amazon Advertisements For Books Course is a free, self-paced video course teaching Amazon ads for self-published books — six parts and 30 named items (21 videos, six notes pages, three quizzes), sold as a 5-day plan and co-taught by Janet Margot, whose bio on the sales page says she spent nearly a decade at Amazon building out its ads program for books. Checked 2026-08-13 it is live and free on both of its hostings, Podia and the creator's Thinkific school, where the page markup publishes 2,155 named reviews averaging 4.9. It is also a funnel: Chesson has said publicly that the course feeds Kindlepreneur's email list and sells his Publisher Rocket software, which the lessons demonstrate. Students in the seller's own reviews flag that parts of the Amazon interface shown are out of date.

CodeFast by Marc Lou

CodeFast is a current, beginner-oriented, build-first web and SaaS course by Marc Lou that publishes its full curriculum, price, and terms up front and is backed by named users posting original reports of shipped projects. It scores well on disclosure, creator credibility, and price for the scope delivered; pace, student-count, project, and outcome claims remain seller-framed or selected user reports, and the refund window is narrow.

AWS Skill Builder page for SaaS Business Fundamentals showing Access: Free and a 4.6 rating from 207 reviewsEditorial report

SaaS Business Fundamentals by AWS Technical Field Communities (TFC)

SaaS Business Fundamentals is a free one-hour AWS Skill Builder course on the SaaS business model, with a public syllabus, a free certificate of completion, and a 4.6/207 rating that AWS gathers only from learners who finish it — a worthwhile hour at zero cost and zero financial risk. Go in knowing that the URL it was previously listed under is dead, that its published learning objectives are copied from a different course and should be ignored, and that it has not been updated since March 2025.

CodeCrafters official pricing page showing the Free, Membership and Teams tiers with a purchasing-power-parity discount bannerEditorial report

Codecrafters by Sarup Banskota & Paul Kuruvilla

CodeCrafters sells access to 11 “build your own X” engineering challenges — Redis, Git, SQLite, a shell, an interpreter and more — for $120 (3 months) or $360 (1 year), with a $1490 lifetime tier currently shown as sold out. The product is well made, independently well reviewed by senior engineers, and free to inspect in full before you pay, which is why it lands as a buy for working engineers. Two things to weigh first: there are no refunds, and its founders announced in May 2026 that they had stopped developing new challenges and were open to selling the company — so the short plan is the safer buy.

How to Build a SaaS by Kyle Gawley

How to Build a SaaS is Kyle Gawley's 25-hour, 17-module video course on building a Node.js/React SaaS product from scratch, now sold from usegravity.app at $99–$599 USD after an ~85% price cut from its 2024–2025 levels — a lot of structured SaaS engineering for the money, from a founder who built and sold the same kind of product himself. The course URL in older listings is dead; the live one works. Two caveats decide it for you: refunds are refused under all circumstances, and the curriculum appears unchanged since 2022.

High Impact Writing by Kieran Drew

High Impact Writing is Kieran Drew’s self-paced course on writing short- and long-form social content to build an audience for a business. It costs $397 USD one-time (or 3x $147) for lifetime access including future updates, with a $999 USD tier that adds a 60-minute 1:1 call, a profile review and a content critique. The sales page promises a 90-day, no-questions-asked refund. The seller does publish terms — a dated Terms of Use, privacy policy and earnings disclaimer from Kieran Drew Enterprise, at a registered UK address — but they are on the members’ host, not on the sales page or the checkout, and they do not restate the 90-day window: §7 points at a “Refund Policy” that does not exist. On the evidence this is a buy for the audience it names — an identifiable UK seller with real authority in the subject, a syllabus published in full before payment, and lifetime access that has already been upgraded free once — with one thing to do first: get the 90-day guarantee confirmed by email.

The offer publishes current payment options and a 30-day refund FAQ. It appears legitimate, while mixed paid-access reviews make content depth and fit the main decision points.

The Skillshare class page for Rand Fishkin's Introduction to SEO: Tactics and Strategy for EntrepreneursEditorial report

Live and watchable on Skillshare as of 2026-08-13 — but recorded around 2015-2016 and carrying no update notice

SEO That Matters by Rand Fishkin

Rand Fishkin's “Introduction to SEO: Tactics and Strategy for Entrepreneurs” is a 12-lesson, 1h 30m beginner class on Skillshare, indexed here as “SEO That Matters” after the phrase in Fishkin's own description. On 2026-08-13 the live page showed 82,483 students, 60 projects, a “Beginner level” tag, and a JSON-LD aggregateRating of 3.48 on a 1-to-4 scale across 780 ratings, with the distribution “Exceeded! 56% / Yes 38% / Somewhat 6% / Not really 1%”. It is not sold separately — you watch it inside a Skillshare membership priced on the card at $13.99/month, billed as an annual payment of $167.88 USD. The teaching earns its praise: the most-liked attributes are “Engaging Teacher” (673) and “Clarity of Instruction” (571), and the independent review at E-Student, bylined Kylee McKay and dated 10 June 2026, scores it 4.5/5. The honest warning is vintage. Skillshare shows no recording or update date, students date the material to 2015-2016, the class demos keyword research in Google AdWords — renamed Google Ads in 2018 — and requests for an update appear in the platform's review wall from 2017 through four years ago. Our earlier review of this page put the runtime at 69 minutes, the audience at 51,000 students, and listed an eight-module outline; none of those matches what the class page renders today, and this page reports the live figures instead.

The T2D3 B2B SaaS CMO Masterclass is a self-paced $799 USD course from Stijn Hendrikse, author of the T2D3 book and co-founder of the B2B SaaS agency Kalungi. It is a genuine, well-specified product: an unusually detailed 18-lecture syllabus published before purchase, an exact team-discount table, a stable three-year price that now folds in a 60-minute 1:1 with the author, and a public directory of 104 certified members. Two caveats to settle before you pay: it publishes no refund policy at all, and its “certification” is issued and recognised only by T2D3.

Personal Branding Mastery by Silviu Marisca

A Udemy personal-branding course by Silviu Marisca, quoted at Rp159,000 (about US$8.90) to this research on 2026-08-11, rated 4.8 out of 5 by 4,530 students out of 36,317 enrolled, with 19 sections and 113 lectures totalling 8h 6m. It is real, delivered and refundable for 30 days under Udemy's policy. Two things a buyer should know before paying: by the page's own per-section durations, 5h 20m of that runtime — about two thirds — is an explicitly "Archive:"-labelled copy of the course's previous version, and the seller's own description still advertises "#1 BESTSELLING" and "HIGHEST RATED … of all time" alongside student counts the same page contradicts.

Buy it for the structure and the frameworks, not for the guarantee — the refund promise carries four completion conditions and is absent from the legal terms — and buy it through the SamCart checkout, because the landing page’s main button is broken. Note that this is the self-paced version, not the live cohort the older reviews and 2022 testimonials describe.

1•2•3 Affiliate Marketing by Pat Flynn

1•2•3 Affiliate Marketing is Pat Flynn's course on earning affiliate income from an audience you already have, taught in three published steps: the rules of ethical affiliate marketing, choosing which products to recommend, then active and passive promotion. It is live as of 2026-08-13 but no longer sold on its own — the standalone Teachable listing now redirects away, and access comes with an SPI Community membership at $99/month or $990/year (a 50%-off coupon, SPI50, is printed on the page), which also unlocks twelve other SPI courses, Pat Flynn's and Liz Wilcox's office hours, monthly workshops and the forum. The membership page states a 7-day, no-questions-asked money-back guarantee. The two things to know before buying: the course teaches monetisation and not traffic — SPI itself says it suits people who already have "at least a small online presence" — and the seller publishes no testimonial for it, so the only learner ratings this research found are three "Verified Student" reviews on eBizFacts, the newest dated 18 January 2023.

As of 2026-08-13 the seller publishes a seven-stage syllabus (~15 hours of core video), unlimited 1:1 coaching with role specialists, a success manager and a community it sizes at 4,000+ members, and holds a 4.7 Trustpilot score across 545 reviews — whose 3% one-star tail, read in full on 2026-08-13, alleges high-pressure closing and a refund promised only verbally. The price is never stated as a number: the FAQ says "Mid-4-figures with payment plans (50/50 split, 3-installment, deposit-to-lock)", and the one outside figure — $5,000–$7,150 — comes second-hand from student testimonials via Ippei's review. No refund policy appears on any of the seven seller pages checked; the published guarantee extends access rather than returning money.

Brand Deal Wizard by Justin Moore

Brand Deal Wizard is Justin Moore's self-paced course on finding, pitching, pricing and negotiating brand sponsorships, taught as an eight-step "Sponsorship Wheel" and packed with contract, proposal, rate-calculator and media-kit templates. The material is specific and the seller is transparent about it — individual lesson titles are printed on the public sales page. But as of the page fetched on 2026-08-14 the course has no price of its own: it is included with the Wizard's Guild coaching membership, which costs $2,997 per year for group support or $9,997 per year for private support, both on a one-year commitment and both entered by application. Archived captures show the standalone offer at $1,497 (or 4 × $427) in November 2024, cut to $997 (or 3 × $397) by April 2025, still at $997 on 12 August 2025 beside the first "free with coaching" banner, and gone by the capture of 18 January 2026. And the membership is not refundable: clause 2.5 of the seller's terms of sale states that once you pay, "no refunds or cancellations will be allowed for the duration of this Program, which is 12 months."

Dropship Breakthru by Jon Warren & Ben Knegendorf

Dropship Breakthru is a high-ticket dropshipping course from Jon Warren and Ben Knegendorf, sold at $997 USD (Silver), $1,897 USD (Gold) or $5,997 USD (Platinum), with payment plans from $249 a month, a $750 one-year community add-on and an Elite membership that auto-rebills at $97 a month after a free trial. Twenty-two modules are named publicly before you pay. The 30-day refund requires you to hand over a live Shopify store, two research spreadsheets and proof you contacted ten suppliers, and is discretionary; the headline “make $100k or your money back” guarantee applies only to Gold and above and needs eleven months of a live store and ten months of paid ads — though the checkout the homepage sends you to describes it as having “No hidden catches, no fine print.” Independent evidence is positive but small and not arm’s-length: fourteen dated five-star Trustpilot reviews on a seller-claimed profile, one unanswered BBB complaint about that guarantee, and a third-party review layer paid 25% commission by the seller. It scores 3.7/5 — a real course from identifiable, experienced operators, with a published syllabus, public prices and an active community, that is worth buying for the training rather than for the guarantee.

The published price for The Room, the program carrying this material, is "$3,000 or $300 per month" for twelve months, governed by a site-wide policy stating that all sales are final and no refund will be issued. Stephanie Obi herself is a well-established Nigerian course strategist with a published book, a live $20.00 ebook checkout and eleven named students on her success-stories page.

The Become a Digital Nomad Course marketing image, taken from the sales page's own og:imageEditorial report

Page live and priced at $497, but not buyable: its credit-card checkout was removed between October 2025 and February 2026 and the published cohort start date is still 9 May 2022 (checked 2026-08-14)

Become a Digital Nomad Course by Neville A. Mehra

The Become a Digital Nomad Course is Neville A. Mehra's four-week cohort program on making the jump to location-independent living — planning the departure, choosing and booking places to live, staying productive on the road, and the logistics of banking, mail, insurance and licences — plus bonuses on earning online, staying healthy and a 1-on-1 Zoom action-plan call. Mehra is Co-Founder & CMO of Genki, a health insurer for travellers, and his page is unusually blunt that this is not an income course. It lists a public price of $497. Checked on 2026-08-14 the page is live but not buyable: it still advertises a cohort starting 9 May 2022, its two "join" buttons are in-page anchors rather than checkout links, and the credit-card order form that stood there through the 8 October 2025 archive capture is gone from the 12 February 2026 one and from the page today. No refund policy appears on any page the seller publishes.

Savage Affiliates by Franklin Hatchett

Savage Affiliates is an affiliate-marketing course sold today for $197 or $297 USD one-time, verified at its live checkout. It is a real product from a registered New Zealand company, but its content dates to 2019, its price has not moved since, and the community and weekly Q&A sessions it still charges for are reported by multiple independent reviewers to have been shut down — including in the refund policy, which requires joining that community before a refund will be granted.

Build a Startup Without Coding by Tara Reed

Build a Startup Without Coding is the Apps Without Code Bootcamp, Tara Reed's coaching-led programme for non-technical founders who want to build and launch an app without writing code. Checked 2026-08-14 the seller publishes two packages on its pricing page: the Bootcamp at $2,900, and Bootcamp + App Done For You at $7,900, which adds three 1:1 meetings and a 1:1 design meeting.

The only published way to buy either is "Book a Free App Strategy Call" — there is no self-serve checkout — and the seller's site also runs a free nine-level app-coaching ladder anyone can use without paying.

AgencyStart (now sold as SystemKit) by Charlie Barber

AgencyStart is Charlie Barber's paid Skool community teaching the AI-automation agency model on GoHighLevel — and since at least August 2025 it has been sold under the name SystemKit. On 13 August 2026 skool.com/agencystart redirects to skool.com/systemkit/about, the same group created 17 April 2023, priced at $125.00/month or $750.00/year with a stated 7-day 100% money-back guarantee, showing 243 members and a classroom of 9 courses across 81 modules. The offer leans on tooling — unlimited GoHighLevel sub-accounts, 175+ pre-built niche snapshots, offer and script audits — and third-party reviews split sharply: buyers praise the sub-account provisioning and Charlie's personal engagement, while others document 5-7 day support replies, cancelled onboarding calls and refunds that took weeks to arrive.

The Online Business Academy sales page for the AI Automation Agency masterclass on 14 August 2026, showing the product name and “$195” in the header above the “Road to $10,000+/mo with AI Automation” heroEditorial report

Sales page live at $195; checkout not selling. Checked 14 August 2026: the sales page returns HTTP 200, every Enroll control resolves to one Teachable URL, and that URL returns HTTP 404 with “This product is not available.”

AI Automation Agency (OBM) by Online Business Academy (OBA Originals)

“AI Automation Agency (OBM)” is Online Business Academy's in-house masterclass on building an agency that sells AI automation services, sold under the house imprint “OBA Originals” with no named instructor. On 14 August 2026 its sales page returned HTTP 200 and listed it at $195, but every purchase button on that page resolved to a Teachable checkout that answered “This product is not available.”, and the seller's Teachable school listed eleven products without this one among them. The page publishes no syllabus, no runtime and no course-specific testimonial; its only outcome evidence is an aggregate “51+ Students enrolled in the Pre-Launch Stage” and “$63,400+ Combined Revenue”, unchanged since the 11 April 2026 archive capture despite a promise on the same block to update every 30-45 days. Our earlier review of this course recorded it as free at /learn/ai-automation-agency-obm; that address now 404s and the listed price is $195, so both of those facts are corrected here.

6 Figure OnlyFans by ROSEDOLLARZ

6 Figure OnlyFans is ROSEDOLLARZ's $57 one-time downloadable guide on Gumroad, aimed at new and stuck OnlyFans creators and promising the profile, pricing, messaging and traffic "tricks" behind Top 1% earnings, plus bonus sections on creator privacy and on Twitter. Checked 2026-08-13, it is live and purchasable at $57 USD with 86 verified-purchaser ratings averaging 4.4. Three things shape the verdict: the seller is anonymous and her central proof point is an untestable "In my first month on OnlyFans last year, I made over $27,900"; she publishes no refund policy of her own (`refund_policy` is null in the product payload); and the page's warning that the $57 price "will quietly bump up" has run unchanged alongside an unchanged $57 price on captures from 4 August 2021, 10 October 2022 and 20 July 2024. The ratings are bimodal — 81% five-star but 11% one-star — and the single rating carrying written text is a one-star from July 2025 reading "bery basic . i feel scammed ".

Become a Better Writer: Content Planning by Andrea Goulet

Become a Better Blogger: Content Planning — listed on this site under its predecessor's title, "Become a Better Writer: Content Planning" — was Andrea Goulet's Skillshare class on planning blog content: 12 lessons, 57 minutes 26 seconds, published 10 October 2013, ending in a three-month editorial calendar built from a Google Sheets template the class supplied. It is no longer available. Opened on 2026-08-14, the class URL lands on skillshare.com/en/browse, and the last Wayback capture serving the class is 10 July 2025. While it was up it had no price of its own: Skillshare's JSON-LD listed the offer as "Subscription", and the class page's only purchase surface was a free-trial prompt. Its record was good — 11,414 students, 81 posted projects and 62 ratings averaging 3.37 on Skillshare's 1-to-4 scale — but it was never revised after 2013, and as late as July 2025 it still pointed learners at Zite, StumbleUpon and Google Currents.

While it sold, the price was shown openly as $5,000.00 against a $15,000.00 anchor that never moved across captures from Oct 2024 to Dec 2025, the shop-wide policy made the purchase non-refundable after a 24-hour cancellation window, and the product page's own customer-review widget stood at "No reviews" with 0% (0) in all five star buckets.
