Questions
The details, up front.
- Why does checkout charge in US dollars?
- Our payment processor doesn't support CAD yet, so prices are shown in Canadian dollars and billed as a fixed US-dollar equivalent (shown right under the button before you buy — e.g. C$29 bills as US$20.99). Your bank converts at its own rate, so the final CAD amount can differ by a little.
- Why decision-window pricing instead of a subscription?
- Choosing a school or a neighbourhood usually takes one to six months — then you're done. So you pay once for the window you need, and nothing auto-renews. No subscription you forget to cancel.
- Is the Project Report AI-generated?
- No. It's built from our data and methodology and reviewed by a Roost analyst, and it comes with a 30-minute consult. You're paying for judgment applied to your specific situation — not a generated document.
- What can I do for free?
- Your first lookup is anonymous. Signed in, Free gives you 3 lookups a month, a 2-address compare, and one saved shortlist — enough to triage. Family+ is for when you're deep in the decision.
- Can I cancel or get a refund?
- Family+ windows don't auto-renew, so there's nothing to cancel. If a window isn't useful, email us — we're a small team and we'll make it right.
- Why Calgary first?
- We'd rather be genuinely accurate in one city than shallow everywhere. Edmonton, Vancouver, and Toronto follow once Calgary is solid.
