Is there a free trial?

There's no classic free trial — you're paid from day one once you subscribe. What softens that is a free architecture preview (no card needed) that shows you what I'd build before you pay a cent, and the 90-Day Ollie Promise, a full refund of every dollar you've paid if Google, including its AI answers, isn't showing your store more in your first 90 days than in the 90 days before.

Short answer: no, there's no classic free trial where the clock runs out and you get charged automatically. You're paid from day one once you subscribe to a plan. But two things take the risk out of that for you: a free architecture preview before you ever pay a cent, and the 90-Day Ollie Promise — a full refund if the first 90 days don't earn their keep.

Here's the thinking behind it: a time-boxed trial cuts you off right around when SEO and AI-search results start to show up, which would be the worst possible moment to lose access. So instead of racing a clock, I show you the real thing for free before you commit, and I back your first 90 days with a real money-back promise once you do.

Before you pay anything: the free architecture preview

Connect your store — no card required — and I read it: your products, your collections, your voice, your niche. Then I show you exactly what I'd build for your store, grounded in what I found, not a generic demo. You get to see the real shape of the thing before you ever hand over payment details.

Once you subscribe

When you pick a plan that fits, that's when the real building starts: articles, collection pages, and tools get generated, installed on your store, and kept fresh by the Drip every month. Billing starts with that first payment — there's no separate trial clock running alongside it.

The 90-Day Ollie Promise

Every paid plan is backed by this: if Google, including its AI answers, isn't showing your store more in your first 90 days than in the 90 days before, you can get a full refund of every subscription dollar you've paid so far. I measure it in your own Google Search Console, so it needs to stay connected. The 90-day window starts the day of that first charge.

How to get the refund: email hello@runoctopus.com within 30 days after day 90 of your first paid subscription. I'll refund everything you've paid, within 10 business days of getting your request.

What happens to the content I built: it stays. Every article, collection page, and tool that's live on your store when you request a refund stays live — I don't pull anything back down. It's yours to keep, edit, or remove, whatever you want.

Where this applies: the 90-Day Promise covers your first paid subscription per account or per store — it's not something you can use again on a resubscription after canceling, or if you've already had a refund once before.

What I don't guarantee

Beyond the refund above, I can't promise a specific ranking, traffic number, or revenue outcome — organic search depends on plenty that's outside anyone's control, including your competition, your store's existing authority, and how Google's algorithms shift. The 90-Day Promise is a refund if you're not showing up more, not a promise of any particular position or sales figure.
