Pricing
Last updated: July 25, 2026
Spot the Cue is practice for reading social cues — tone, facial expressions, body language, subtext, group dynamics and conflict — through short, real-world scenarios with video and photos. There is a genuinely usable free tier, and a single one-time payment to unlock the rest. There is no subscription.
Free — $0, forever
No account, no sign-up, no ads. Includes:
- Level 1 of all six skills — tone & wording, facial & body cues, subtext & indirectness, group dynamics, conflict & repair, and out-loud practice
- Spot the Cues: Eyes — a 66-face test of reading emotion from the eyes alone
- Spot the Cues: Faces — reading subtle whole-face expressions
- The placement quiz — a 2-minute check of where you're starting from
- The cue glossary — what common signals often mean, and when they don't
- The tone checker — paste a message and see how it might land before you send
- Three out-loud moments — browse the whole out-loud bank and practice three of them aloud, with the full delivery read (pace, filler words, pauses, warmth)
- Progress, streaks and spaced review, stored on your device
Full access — $19.99 once
A single payment. Not a subscription, nothing renews, nothing expires, and there is nothing to cancel. Adds:
- Levels 2–6 across every skill — 400+ scenarios that get progressively more ambiguous, the way real situations are
- The rest of out-loud speaking practice — every moment in the bank plus the leveled, scored track that feeds your journey. Rehearse what you'd actually say, with gentle feedback on delivery. Your voice is processed on your own device and never uploaded
- Learning paths — themed runs grouping related cues: spotting a soft no, masked feelings, sarcasm and dry humour, reading a group, digital communication
- Social stories — step-by-step walkthroughs of real situations like airports, appointments, interviews and first dates
Where you can buy it
You can buy on this website, or as an in-app purchase in the iPhone app — same contents, same $19.99, either way.
Each purchase covers where you bought it. Apple's App Store and our web checkout are independent systems, and the iPhone app does not have web sign-in yet — so a web unlock will not unlock the app today, and an App Store purchase will not unlock the web. Honouring a web purchase inside the app is on the roadmap; until then, buy where you will actually practice: on the web if you use a computer, or a browser on your phone; on the App Store if you want it on your home screen. If you buy the wrong one by mistake, email us and we will sort it out.
If you buy on the web, signing in with the email address you used at checkout restores access in any browser. In the iPhone app, Profile → Restore purchase restores it on any iPhone signed in to the same Apple Account.
Web payments are processed by Polar (Polar Software, Inc.), which acts as the merchant of record — Polar handles payment, sales tax and VAT, and appears on your card statement. Purchases made inside the iOS app are handled by Apple under their terms.
