How to Pick the Right Amplify Membership for Your Agency
Founders, Inner Circle, or Standard? Here's how to choose the Amplify tier that fits where your agency is today—and where you're headed.
By AI Travel Studio Team
Amplify offers three membership tiers—Founders, Inner Circle, and Standard—each designed for a different stage and style of agency. Your best fit depends on how you work, how much direct support you want, and whether you value lifetime pricing over flexibility.
The right membership isn't about features alone. It's about where your agency is today, what you need most right now, and how you want to grow. Let's break down what each tier is built for—and who thrives in it.
What does the Founders tier offer?
Founders is the locked-rate founding member tier, priced at $199/month for life. Only 100 spots exist, and once they're filled, this tier closes permanently.
You get unlimited Client Stories and My Travel Story posts—no credits, no caps, no per-story fees. You also get access to the full AI Travel Studio community, plus every tool the platform releases in the future at no additional cost.
This tier is built for advisors who see Amplify as a long-term part of their business and want to lock in pricing before it rises. If you publish stories consistently—whether that's two a month or twenty—and you value predictability, Founders gives you the most runway for the lowest long-term cost.
It's also the right fit if you're an early adopter who wants a voice in what gets built next. Founders members are the first to see new features and the first invited to give feedback that shapes the roadmap.
What makes Inner Circle different?
Inner Circle is the white-glove tier, priced at $599/month. Only 25 spots are available, and this is the only membership that includes direct access to Ed Elliott, AI Travel Studio's co-founder and CEO.
You get everything in Founders—unlimited stories, full community access, all future tools—plus a VIP onboarding day, quarterly strategy calls with Ed, white-label options for your agency's branding, and an invitation to an annual in-person retreat.
This tier is designed for agencies that want a true partnership, not just a platform. If you're scaling, building a team, or want to shape how Amplify integrates into a bigger content and marketing strategy, Inner Circle gives you direct line-of-sight to the founder who built it.
It's also the right choice if your brand matters more than speed. White-label publishing means every story you share can look and feel like it came entirely from your agency, with no platform attribution required.
Inner Circle members typically run established agencies, manage multiple advisors, or are positioning themselves as thought leaders in a specific travel niche. They want strategic guidance, not just software.
What does the Standard membership include?
Standard is the core membership, priced at $299/month. It includes unlimited Client Stories, unlimited My Travel Story posts, and full access to the community and future tools—everything you need to start publishing referral-worthy content immediately.
Standard is built for advisors who want a powerful, proven content engine without the add-ons. You're not looking for one-on-one founder access or custom branding. You want to capture your clients' stories, publish them quickly, and let the content do the work of attracting new business.
This tier fits solo advisors, new agency owners, and growing teams that need a reliable system but prefer to move independently. If you learn by doing and you're comfortable exploring the platform on your own with community support as a safety net, Standard gives you everything Amplify is known for at a straightforward price.
It's also the right option if you're still testing how content marketing fits into your overall strategy. You get the same story-building power as every other tier—just without the concierge layer.
How do I know which tier fits my agency today?
Start with three questions.
First: how much do you publish, and how often do you plan to? If you're producing even a few stories a month, the unlimited model pays for itself quickly. The pricing is the same across Founders and Standard in terms of what you can produce—the difference is rate lock and community depth.
Second: do you want direct strategic input, or do you prefer to run your own playbook? If you value having a sounding board and want someone in your corner who understands both the platform and the business of travel advising, Inner Circle is the only tier that offers that.
Third: where is your agency headed in the next two years? Founders locks in your rate forever, which matters most if you see Amplify as a permanent fixture in your marketing. Standard gives you full flexibility to scale up or step back as your business changes.
One more lens: how hands-on do you want your onboarding to be? Inner Circle includes a dedicated VIP day. Founders and Standard both offer community support and self-serve resources, which work beautifully for advisors who like to explore and ask questions as they go.
Can I switch tiers later?
Yes. Your membership tier isn't locked forever—except Founders pricing, which is.
If you start with Standard and later want the strategic access that comes with Inner Circle, you can upgrade (if a spot is available). If you grab a Founders spot now, your $199/month rate is guaranteed for life, even as new features roll out.
The one thing you can't do is join Founders after the 100 spots fill. Once that tier closes, it's closed. If lifetime pricing and long-term predictability matter to you, Founders is a now-or-never decision.
What should I do next?
Look at where your agency is today—not where you hope it will be in five years. Pick the tier that removes friction from your current workflow and gives you the support style you'll actually use.
If you want to lock in pricing and you publish regularly, choose Founders. If you want a true partnership and direct access to strategy and white-label options, choose Inner Circle. If you want the full platform with flexibility and no extras, choose Standard.
Every tier gives you unlimited stories, the same AI interviewer, the same professional output, and the same community of travel advisors building their brands alongside you. The difference is how much support you want around it—and whether you want to lock your rate now or leave room to adjust later.
