Honest answers.

The questions a real founder actually asks before signing up.

Getting started

Do I need any tech skills to use this?

None. If you can write a text message, you can use MadMantra. There are no buttons to learn, no menus to memorize, and nothing to install. You just describe what you want, and it happens.

Is it really free? What's the catch?

Really free. No card, no trial timer, no "you have 7 days to upgrade." The free plan gives you your website, your email, your first plan, and free chat with MadMantra forever. You only pay if you want MadMantra to actually run the work alongside you — proposing each next step, then doing it: outreach, site updates, and the daily to-dos that move the business forward.

How long does it take to get set up?

Minutes. You describe your idea, MadMantra builds your business while you watch, and then you have a real website, a real email address, and a first plan ready to go. Most people are looking at their finished site within 10 minutes of signing up.

What if I don't have a fully formed idea yet?

Even better. Tell MadMantra what you're curious about, what you're good at, or what problem you keep thinking about. It will help you shape it into something real — shaping the idea is what the free chat is for.

What MadMantra actually does

What does MadMantra actually build for me?

A real website with your branding and your story. A working email address you can give out. A first plan covering who your customers are and what to sell them. A list of things to do today, picked from everything you could be doing. And a place to talk through anything, anytime.

Will my website look like everyone else's?

No. MadMantra picks colors, fonts, and a layout based on your idea — a calm wellness site looks nothing like a punchy dev tool. And you can ask for changes anytime. Want a section about how you started in your garage? Just say so.

Can I share my website with customers?

Yes. The moment it's built, your site is live on the internet at your own address. Share the link, put it on a business card, send it to anyone.

What about the daily to-dos? How does it know what I should do?

MadMantra looks at what happened with your business overnight — traffic, signups, emails sent, tasks that worked, tasks that didn't — and picks the three things that would help most today. You can do them yourself, or ask MadMantra to do them for you (on the paid plan). The top one actually runs on its own while you sleep.

Can MadMantra run ads for me?

Yes — on the paid plan. You pick a daily budget, MadMantra generates a short vertical video ad, launches it on Instagram and Facebook, and watches how it performs. It kills the ones that aren't working and scales the ones that are.

Can my customers pay me through the site?

Yes. A two-click setup connects your bank-payout account to your website and you start taking payments — subscriptions, one-time products, or invoices, whichever fits how you bill. The money lands in your account directly; MadMantra never touches the funds.

Can I use my own domain?

Yes. Your site starts at <yourname>.madmantra.app, but from Company Settings you can point a domain you already own (yourbrand.com, yourbrand.app, etc.) at it. We generate SSL automatically — usually live within 10 minutes once DNS propagates.

Does MadMantra post to my Twitter / X account?

Right now, no. Posts go out from our shared @madmantra handle so you don't have to mess with Twitter API keys or set up a developer app. Each post mentions your company + links to your landing page, so followers click through to you. We'll add posting from your own handle as an option down the road.

Pricing & cancelling

What happens if I cancel?

You keep full access until the end of your current paid month — you paid for it, you get it. No new charges, no early cut-off. When the period ends we wipe remaining actions and pause your company. Change your mind before then? One click resumes it. Nothing is deleted either way — resubscribe anytime and everything comes back exactly as it was.

Do unused actions roll over to next month?

Yes — up to 3 months' worth. Each billing date adds your monthly allowance (30 actions on the base plan) to your existing balance, capped at 3× monthly so unused months stack without accumulating forever. Top-up packs (10, 30, 50, or 100 actions) stack on top of that and never expire on their own — they stay on your account until you use them or cancel.

What's the difference between the free and paid plan?

Free is for thinking, planning, and getting set up. Paid is for doing — when you want MadMantra to write the emails, update the site on demand, send the messages, and run your daily to-dos for you instead of just suggesting them.

What's an 'action'?

An action is anything MadMantra does for you: a website update, an email sent, a piece of writing drafted, a task carried out. Conversation, planning, and looking at your business are always free — even on the paid plan.

Can I really cancel anytime?

Yes. From your dashboard, in two clicks, no phone call required. We don't do retention dark patterns.

What if I need more than 30 actions in a month?

Top up. Four pack sizes — 10 actions for $10, 30 for $27, 50 for $40, or 100 for $70 (bigger packs cost less per action). Top-up actions don't expire at the end of the month — they stick around until you use them or cancel.

What's the difference between pausing and cancelling?

Pausing stops MadMantra from running anything on its own — no nightly reviews, no recurring ads or outreach — but keeps your subscription active so you can resume instantly. Your monthly subscription still bills while paused. If you want to stop billing too, cancel instead — you keep access through the end of the current paid month, then it ends.

How do I get free credits?

Two ways. First, every new account starts with 5 free credits on your first company (10 if you signed up through a friend's referral link) — enough to try a real task before subscribing. Second, share your referral link: your friend gets 10 free credits at signup, and when they subscribe you get 10 credits credited to the company you shared the link from. No referral limit — keep referring, keep earning. The link lives under the Get Free Credits button in your dashboard header.

Trust & the founder

Who built this and why?

One person — Sunil Singh, an indie founder who's been doing it all alone across four countries for fifteen years. He built MadMantra because it's the friend he wished he had every time he sat down to start over. The full story is on the about page.

Is my data safe? Will you sell it or train on it?

No selling, no training. Your business is yours. We use modern, encrypted infrastructure and the bare minimum of access to make MadMantra work for you.
