Free · the whole course

Simple, honest pricing

The entire course is free.

Every lesson, unlimited practice, and full mock exams — free, with no card required. Two optional one-time add-ons: a verifiable $99 Certificate of Completion when you finish, and unlimited AI-instructor questions for $99 (your first 3 questions are free). You never have to buy either to complete the course.

Compare

Traditional video ground schools commonly run $199–$299. Here the course itself is free — you only pay if you choose an optional add-on: the certificate or unlimited AI-instructor access.
