Free for everyone who reads. Funded by those who can.
Every piece of knowledge on this platform is free to read, and it stays that way. Membership does exactly one thing: it pays for researching, translating, reviewing and maintaining the bilingual content — so the site never needs ads and never needs to sell family data.
- · Flat annual price, no metered fees
- · No ads, no third-party trackers
- · Anything not built yet is labeled “In build”
⚕ Read this first: Membership buys access to educational material and supports its production. It is not medical care. This site does not diagnose, does not treat, does not give individualized clinical advice, and promises no health or developmental outcome. Consult qualified professionals for personal medical decisions.
Current status: The payment channel is not connected yet (the site owner still has to configure the payment-provider links). Until then the paid tiers accept email interest only — we take no money and show no fake pay button.

About the social-proof section
The charter cohort has only just opened, so we have no member count, no testimonials and no case studies to show. This section stays empty until those numbers are real and checkable — inventing social proof on an autism information platform is not something we will do. What you can verify today: our content governance is published, every claim carries an evidence level, and the platform is operated by LIGHT HOPE LLC, Boston, MA.

You are not buying medical care
Membership is access to educational material plus support for producing it. This site does not diagnose, does not treat, gives no individualized clinical advice, and promises no outcome.
The free part stays free
Nothing already published moves behind a paywall. Membership pays for new bilingual content; it does not lock up old content.
“In build” means not built yet
Anything labeled In build has not shipped. The delivery window is stated on the tier card. If we miss it, email us and we refund in full.
No hidden fees
One flat annual price. No per-seat charge, no usage metering, no mandatory supplement or test-kit add-ons. Cancel any time and keep access for the rest of the paid year.
How we count visitors
This site runs a first-party counter of its own (/api/track). It stores an anonymous random id with page views and button clicks — no IP address, no browser fingerprint, no cookie, and no third-party tracking script anywhere on the site.
