AI Orchestrator is a digital package, not a hosted SaaS and not a done-for-you service. Use this page to check fit before you compare the packages.
Buyer questions
What buyers want to know before deciding.
Close to deciding? This spells out what is included, what is not included, who the packages fit, and what happens after purchase.
Does this work with Claude, ChatGPT, Codex and other tools?
Yes. The kits are provider-neutral: roles, routing and rules are written as Markdown files that you use with any AI model, assistant or editor. Nothing is locked to a specific provider, and no particular model is required.
Do I need ChatGPT, Claude and Codex?
No. A single AI tool is enough to start — the files and rules are provider-neutral. You add a second or third tool only if you need more independent review, more capacity, an outage buffer, or genuinely parallel work.
Does the system work with only one tool?
Yes. With one tool you run the roles in turn — research, plan, implement, and review in a fresh pass. You don’t need a paid API plan; a normal account is enough.
Why not just two Claude?
Two Claude can be an excellent, complete setup: same interface, shared conventions, more capacity, and real parallel work in separate worktrees. A tool mix only becomes more interesting when you deliberately want stronger role separation, a more independent second opinion, or a buffer against one provider’s limits and outages. It’s a deliberate trade-off — not a verdict that two Claude is ‘doing it wrong.’
Do I need programming skills?
No. The kits are structured Markdown files that you read, fill in and add to your project. Git helps but is optional. A text editor is enough.
Are the product files in German or English?
The website is available in German and English — the actual product files and templates are in English. That keeps them usable with every AI tool and in any team.
Is this a SaaS or a download?
A download: a ZIP archive of Markdown files that you use locally inside your project. There is no running online service, nothing is hosted, nothing phones home.
Do I need an account or a cloud?
No. No account, no login, no cloud. The files belong in your project or repository — that is all.
Is this a subscription?
No. A one-time purchase, no recurring usage fees, no consumption-based credits.
What is the difference between the Founder Kit and the Orchestrator Kit?
The Founder Kit organizes the project: context, decisions, status, roadmap, tasks and the next best action. The Orchestrator Kit coordinates the AI team: roles, model routing, working modes, repo gates, reviews and handoffs. One layer runs the project, the other runs the AI tools.
What does the bundle add?
The AI Founder Operating System contains both kits plus the layer that keeps them in sync: the shared file map (SHARED_FILE_MAP), the end-to-end integration flow (INTEGRATION_FLOW), the upgrade path and a fully worked sample project.
Can I use the system in commercial projects?
Yes. The license allows use in an unlimited number of your own private and commercial projects, including adapting and restructuring the files for those projects.
Can I hand the files to clients?
Work you produce with the kit may be used for clients. The original kit files themselves may not be passed on, resold or distributed as a white-label product — including as a client deliverable.
Which updates and which support are included?
All v1.x updates are included for v1 buyers; v2.0 and later major versions are separate products. Support is best-effort email support for installation and reproducible product defects — no consulting, no individual project advice, no customization, no guaranteed response time.
What happens after the purchase?
The flow: confirm the payment, open the confirmation page, receive the download link, additionally get a delivery email, unzip the archive locally and start with START_HERE_FOR_HUMAN.md (or START_HERE_FOR_AI.md for your agent).
How long does getting started take?
A typical first complete working cycle — set up the files, fill the context, run one task through the loop — takes roughly 25–35 minutes. It depends on your project and the AI tool you use, and it is an orientation, not a guaranteed result.
All three packages are available as version 1.1.1: one-time purchase, no subscription, all v1.x updates included.
