Pricing FAQ
Questions about pricing, access, and course coverage
These answers explain how AISDI™ subscriptions, currency display, ZAR-backed billing, Free Essentials access, course counts, in-development courses, certificates, and the active learning experience work.
Currency and billing
Why do I see prices in my local currency?
AISDI™ may display pricing in your selected or detected local currency to make comparison easier. These local-currency amounts are calculated from the South African Rand base price using a current exchange-rate conversion.
Exchange rates can change, so the displayed local-currency amount can also change.
What currency am I actually charged in?
Unless AISDI™ states otherwise at checkout, online subscription payments are processed in South African Rand.
The ZAR amount shown at checkout is the amount authorized for payment. If your card or account is issued outside South Africa, your bank, card issuer, or payment network converts the ZAR charge into your card currency.
Why might my bank statement show a different local-currency amount?
Your bank, card issuer, or payment network sets the exchange rate, conversion timing, and any foreign-transaction fee applied to your card statement.
AISDI™ controls the ZAR subscription price shown at checkout. AISDI™ does not control your bank’s exchange rate, conversion timing, or card fees.
What happens to monthly renewals if the exchange rate changes?
Your subscription renewal is processed in ZAR at the applicable AISDI™ subscription price.
If your card is issued in another currency, your bank converts the ZAR renewal charge into your card currency at the time it processes the transaction. This means the local-currency amount on your card statement may differ from one renewal to the next.
Can I be billed in a fixed USD, EUR, GBP, or other foreign-currency amount?
AISDI™ currently processes online subscription payments in ZAR unless checkout states otherwise.
Local-currency pricing shown on the site is for comparison. It is not a fixed foreign-currency subscription price unless AISDI™ states that specific currency at checkout.
Free Essentials access
Is Essentials really free?
Essentials access is currently available at no charge for individual learners. It gives individuals a practical entry point into AI literacy, everyday AI use, prompting basics, responsible use, and early confidence-building.
Essentials is not a lifetime access promise. AISDI™ may change the Essentials access model, included content, certificates, features, or pricing in future. You will not be charged unless you choose and authorize a paid plan.
Who is Free Essentials for?
Free Essentials is intended for individual learning and review. It is suitable for people who want to begin with practical, vendor-neutral AI literacy before deciding whether to move into deeper paid library access.
Organizational decision-makers may also use Free Essentials to review the AISDI™ learning experience before discussing team, department, reseller, partner, or enterprise access options.
Can a business use Free Essentials for team training?
Free Essentials is not a free business or team deployment subscription.
Businesses may use Essentials for review, but team deployment, learner reporting, cohort management, onboarding, integrations, validated certificate workflows, and broader library access are handled through paid business or enterprise options.
Will Essentials always be free?
Essentials is currently available at no charge for individual learners, but AISDI™ may change the access model, included content, certificates, features, or pricing in future.
AISDI™ will not charge you unless you choose and authorize a paid plan.
What happens if Essentials becomes a paid subscription later?
If AISDI™ changes Essentials from no-charge access to paid access, users will be informed through the relevant website, account, or communication process.
You will not be charged automatically. To continue access under a paid Essentials model, you would need to choose and authorize a paid plan.
Course coverage and library status
Do the course counts include courses that are still in development?
Yes. Course counts may include both published courses and courses marked as in development.
The Pricing page shows course status in the course coverage accordion, and individual course pages may also show whether a course is published or still in development. In-development courses form part of the planned subscription coverage, but they are only accessible once released.
When do I get access to an in-development course?
You get access to an in-development course once it is released into the learning environment, provided the course falls within your active subscription level at that time.
In-development status means the course is part of the planned library coverage, but it is not yet available for full learning access.
Can course availability or course counts change?
Yes. AISDI™ may add, revise, replace, reorganize, rename, retire, or release courses over time.
The Pricing page and course pages should be treated as the current public reference for course availability, subscription coverage, and course status.
Do higher subscriptions include lower-level courses?
Yes. Higher subscriptions include the levels below them.
For example, a subscription that includes Intermediate coverage also includes the applicable Essentials and Fundamentals coverage shown in the course coverage table.
Subscriptions, cancellation, and account use
Which subscription should I choose?
Start with Essentials if you want a no-charge entry point into practical AI literacy and everyday use.
Choose Fundamentals when you are ready to move beyond the entry layer into broader applied AI capability. Choose Intermediate when you need deeper role-, function-, team-, or implementation-relevant learning. Choose Advanced+ when you need advanced learning for leadership, governance, strategy, specialist work, transformation, or complex AI application.
Is AISDI™ suitable for teams or organizations?
Yes, but team and organizational use should be handled through Business Access.
Individual subscriptions are intended for individual learner access. For teams, cohorts, departments, institutional rollout, learner reporting, onboarding, integrations, curated routes, or enterprise deployment, use the Business Access route.
Can I cancel my subscription?
Yes. You can cancel through the customer portal where available, or by contacting support@aisdi.ai.
Cancellation stops future renewal charges. Unless AISDI™ states otherwise or applicable law requires otherwise, access normally continues until the end of the current paid billing period.
Are refunds available?
AISDI™ provides digital learning access after successful payment. Refunds are considered for duplicate charges, unresolved access failures, legal requirements, or discretionary goodwill cases.
Cancellation does not automatically refund the current billing period.
Can I share my account or subscription?
No. Each account, subscription, seat, or access entitlement is for one unique user unless AISDI™ agrees otherwise in writing.
Account sharing, seat pooling, resale, or rotating one account between multiple users is not allowed.
Learning experience and recognition
Are certificates included?
AISDI™ may issue certificates, completion records, validated completion records, or related recognition documents where the relevant course or access model supports them.
A certificate or validated completion record reflects completion of the applicable AISDI™ course or completion process. It is not, by itself, a formal qualification, professional licence, accredited credential, or independent validation of professional competence unless AISDI™ states this in writing for a separately governed process.
What kind of learning experience should I expect?
AISDI™ is a structured, self-paced, AI-interactive learning experience. Learners work through course material, use ALMA™, complete ALMA Activities™, and apply judgment.
It is not a passive click-through or video-first course experience.
Is ALMA™ included in the courses?
ALMA™ is part of the AISDI™ learning experience where enabled in the relevant course environment. It helps learners clarify concepts, test understanding, personalize examples, complete activities, and apply learning in context.
ALMA™ responses are AI-generated. Learners should review outputs, apply judgment, and avoid entering sensitive, confidential, or unauthorized information.
