AppSumo

Redeeming step by step

AppSumo connects your purchase to your Inkfluence account directly. There is no license key to copy and paste anywhere.

1. In your AppSumo account, open Inkfluence AI and click Redeem.
2. You are sent to Inkfluence. Create your account, or sign in if you already have one.
3. Your tier is attached to that account automatically and you land in the app, ready to write.

If you already have an Inkfluence account

Sign in with that account during redemption instead of creating a new one. Your AppSumo tier is added on top of the existing account, so your existing books and settings stay exactly as they are. Do not create a second account, it splits your work across two logins.

What each tier includes

Every tier is a one-time payment for life and includes the full editor, AI writing tools, AI cover designer, all export formats, and one-click Etsy and Gumroad publishing. The differences:

• Tier 1: 35 chapters per month. No audiobook narration, no book translation.
• Tier 2: 80 chapters per month. No audiobook narration, no book translation.
• Tier 3: unlimited chapters, plus 30 audiobook chapters per month, 9 AI narrator voices, and book translation into 16+ languages.

How the monthly cap works

On Tier 1 and Tier 2 the chapter count resets on the 1st of each month and never runs out for the life of the deal. Tier 3 is unlimited, so there is nothing to track. Not sure which tier you are on? It is shown on your Profile page.

Need more in a busy month

One-time chapter credit packs work on any tier and stack on top of your monthly allowance. Credits are also how a Tier 1 or Tier 2 user can make the occasional audiobook, since audiobook is otherwise a Tier 3 feature.

How the tiers compare

The standard subscription plans are Creator ($9.99/month) and Premium ($19.99/month). Your AppSumo deal is a one-time payment for life instead.

• Tier 1 and Tier 2: the same feature set as Creator, with a 35 or 80 chapter monthly cap. Audiobook and translation are not included.
• Tier 3: Premium-equivalent, unlimited chapters with audiobook, 9 voices, and translation.

Where you manage it

There is no recurring billing and nothing to cancel. AppSumo customers manage the deal from their AppSumo account, not from a Stripe billing page. Your Profile page shows your tier and a Manage on AppSumo link.

What stays included

Everything your tier includes today, plus all future improvements to those features, stays included for the life of the deal at no extra cost. We ship constantly and you get those improvements automatically.

Genuinely new, AI-cost-heavy features

If we later build a brand-new feature that carries a direct AI vendor cost (a new media type, or a significantly more expensive model), that specific new feature may be offered as an optional credit-based add-on or a higher tier. Your existing tier is never reduced and you are never forced into anything. This keeps the lifetime deal sustainable so Inkfluence is still here building years from now.

How refunds work

AppSumo purchases are covered by AppSumo's standard 60-day money-back guarantee. Refunds are requested and processed from your AppSumo account, under your Orders. Inkfluence does not process AppSumo refunds on our side, so the fastest path is always through AppSumo directly.

After a refund

When AppSumo processes a refund, the tier on your Inkfluence account is removed automatically. Any books you created stay in your account, and any chapter credits you separately purchased are unaffected.

Stacking codes

Inkfluence applies one AppSumo tier per account, so buying several codes does not add them together. If you want more capacity, moving to a higher tier is the way to do it, not stacking.

Moving to a higher tier

Use the plan-change option on the Inkfluence deal in your AppSumo account to move from Tier 1 to Tier 2 or Tier 3. Your new tier replaces the old one on your Inkfluence account automatically, and your books and settings are untouched. If you only need a short-term boost rather than a permanent move, one-time chapter credit packs work on any tier.
