Will Google penalise this as “AI content”?
No — and here’s why. Generic AI tools (Jasper, Writesonic, ChatGPT) get penalised because they produce content with no unique angle. LockStack writes from your business wedge — your expertise and experience signal, which is what Google’s Helpful Content guidance asks for. Ranking decisions are always Google’s, not ours.
Do I need internet to use this?
No internet needed. The AI model is baked into the EXE you bought — no separate runtime, no model download. Once installed, pull the network cable and it still works. Forever.
Is this a subscription?
No, never. One-time purchase, owned forever. No recurring fees, no seat-count creep, no “your subscription has been cancelled” emails. We make money once. You own it forever.
What hardware do I need?
Any normal Windows laptop works. Windows 10/11 (64-bit), 8 GB RAM minimum, ~5 GB free disk. No GPU required — but if you have one, the engine uses it automatically. Typical speeds:
- 8 GB RAM, CPU only → ~3 hours per campaign (close Chrome/Slack while generating)
- 16 GB RAM, CPU only → ~2 hours, smooth multitasking
- 16 GB RAM + 4 GB+ GPU → ~10–15 min (5–20× faster than CPU)
The engine auto-detects NVIDIA, AMD, and Intel GPUs with 4 GB+ VRAM via the Vulkan runtime — no per-vendor setup, no driver downloads, no CUDA. If GPU acceleration fails for any reason (outdated driver, hybrid laptop quirk, virtualization), the engine silently falls back to CPU. The customer never sees an error or has to do anything — the app just works at CPU speed instead.
What’s the difference between Solo and Pro?
Same engine. Pro adds 3 UI tools on top. Both tiers produce the same 30 posts, same 21 file formats per post (634 files per campaign), same 11 social adaptations, same schema, same PDF SUMMARY, same WordPress 1-click copy. Pro adds exactly three things: CALENDAR (XLSX) styled 3-sheet workbook, BULK SOCIAL CSV for Buffer / Hootsuite / Later / Publer / SocialBee bulk-import, and the SEO DATA tab (live JSON-LD editor — the schema is still generated and shipped in every per-post .zip for Solo too; Solo just can’t browse it in a dedicated tab). Solo is not throttled. If you’re running an agency or scheduling across 5+ social accounts, Pro pays for itself in the first month.
Can I use this for client work?
Yes — both tiers. Solo and Pro ship clean files (no LockStack watermarks, no “made with” footers) so you deliver them as your own work. Pro adds agency workflow conveniences (XLSX styled calendar, Bulk Social CSV, live JSON-LD editor) that make multi-client work faster.
Mac or Linux?
Windows 10/11 only — for now. Mac and Linux are on the roadmap but not yet shipped — we ship what works today, not what we hope to ship.
Refund policy?
30-day no-questions-asked money-back. If LockStack doesn’t multiply your wedge into 30 publishable posts in your first session, email us and we’ll refund. Simple.
How is this different from Jasper / Surfer / Frase?
They write generic. We multiply your wedge. They charge $50–$279/month forever — we charge once. They run in the cloud — we run on your machine. They produce the thin, angle-less content Google’s Helpful Content Update targets — here the wedge anchoring is human, which is what that guidance asks for. Ranking decisions are always Google’s, not ours.
Does it work with WordPress?
Yes — one click. WordPress XML export with all schema embedded. Paste into the WP classic editor and publish. Markdown, HTML, and structured JSON-LD all included.
