docs/ROOTNODE_PRICING_AND_OFFERS_V1.md — the founder-approved, locked V1 pricing matrix (seasonal camps, instructor-led programs, self-paced, mentoring/workshops, sibling policy, Winter Break launch terms) recovered from synced conversation history after the original Phase 9.5 commit was confirmed absent from canonical Git history. Cross-validated against the independently-prepared RootNode Academy WHM+WHMCS Agent Handoff's own price guardrail table — identical figures. Does not resolve or invent dates, venue, capacity, tax treatment, refund/cancellation policy, or legal agreement language — those remain separate, open launch gates. PHASE10_CANONICAL_STATE_AUDIT.md updated to reflect the recovery — the original Phase 9.5 commit is still confirmed missing from history, but the pricing decision itself is now canonically recorded rather than resting only on verbal confirmation. PC #2 inspection remains useful only to check for an earlier local copy to compare against, not to locate the pricing itself anymore.

# RootNode Academy Pricing Matrix V1
|
||
|
||
> **FOUNDER APPROVED — LOCKED FOR V1**
|
||
|
||
This document is the canonical V1 pricing decision for RootNode Academy. It was recovered from
|
||
the synced RootNode Academy conversation after the original Phase 9.5 work was found to be
|
||
absent from canonical Git history.
|
||
|
||
Prices below are in USD. A founding or early-bird price is a defined offer price, not a range.
|
||

||

The Technical Workshop range is an approved pricing framework, not one universal fixed price.
|
||
|
||
## Sibling policy
|
||
|
||
Each additional sibling receives 10% off tuition. This policy does not authorize or require a
|
||
promotion engine in V1.
|
||
|
||
## Winter Break Camp launch terms
|
||
|
||
- Commercial label: **Founding Cohort**
|
||
- Launch tuition: **$399 USD**
|
||
- Application representation: **39900 USD cents**
|
||
- Standard/reference tuition: **$449 USD** (`44900` cents)
|
||
- Payment: paid in full
|
||
- No deposit
|
||
- No payment plan
|
||
|
||
Pricing approval does not resolve or authorize dates, venue, capacity, tax treatment,
|
||
refund/cancellation policy, or legal agreement language. Those remain separate launch gates.
|
||
|
||
## Implementation authority
|
||
|
||
RootNode's application remains authoritative for offerings, eligibility, registration, and the
|
||
server-side amount sent to Stripe. Stripe executes and records payment; it is not the canonical
|
||
RootNode product catalog.
