Questions
The things people
actually ask
Answered plainly. If yours is not here, ask it. The reply comes from the person who built the app.
Buying
What it costs, and which one you need.
Is this a subscription?
Yes. BooshSEO and BooshDESIGN are £24.99 a year, and the subscriptions renew until you cancel. Join at the EarlyBird rate and it is locked in for life: it never goes up for you while you stay subscribed. Cancelling and coming back later means joining at whatever the price is by then. BooshSEO's data is separate either way: it is billed to you directly by DataForSEO at what the data actually costs.
Which app do I actually need?
It depends on which job is currently costing you the most. BooshSEO if being found is the problem, and BooshDESIGN if the design-to-code handover is where time disappears. If you are not sure, describe your week to us and we will tell you honestly which would help and which would not.
Can I try one before buying?
Get in touch and say which app and what you would want to test. We would rather you found out it does not suit you before paying than after.
Do I need to buy all of them?
No, and most people should not. They share a design system and they know about each other, but each one does its job on its own. Buy the one that solves a problem you have this month.
Licensing
What a licence covers, and what happens later.
How many machines can I install on?
It depends on the app, because they are used differently. FEWD Studio and GenCSS activate on two machines, so a desktop and a laptop are both covered. BooshSEO and BooshDESIGN are one machine each. If you need more than your licence allows, ask: it is a conversation, not a form.
Do I get updates?
On BooshSEO and BooshDESIGN, every update is included for as long as the licence is current, major versions included.
What happens if I stop using an app?
Nothing stops working. Your data is a file on your own machine. There is no export step because there is nothing to export from.
Your data
Where it lives, who can see it, and how to get it out.
Where is my data stored?
On your machine. BooshSEO stores its runs locally, and BooshDESIGN works on files in your own project. There is no account and no server holding any of it.
Can you see my data?
No. There is nothing to see. The apps do not send your content anywhere. Where an app talks to a third party it is one you connected with your own key, such as DataForSEO for search data or an AI provider, and that traffic goes from your machine to them.
Does it work offline?
Mostly. BooshDESIGN works on files in your own project and needs no connection. BooshSEO needs a connection for the runs that fetch data, but everything already stored can be read, compared and exported with no connection at all.
The apps
Platforms, prerequisites, and how they fit together.
Mac or Windows?
Both. Every app ships for macOS and Windows. There is no Linux build and no web version.
Do I need to know how to code?
For BooshSEO, no: it is an ordinary desktop application. BooshDESIGN, FEWD Studio and GenCSS are made for people building websites, so they assume you know what HTML and CSS are.
Do the apps need each other to work?
No. Each one stands alone. They share a design system and they hand things to each other neatly when you use more than one, but nothing is crippled if you only buy one.
Is there AI in these, and can I turn it off?
Where AI appears it is optional and it uses your own key. BooshSEO produces a complete report with no AI provider connected. What you lose is the interpretation, not the data.
Support
Getting help, and asking for things.
How do I get help if I am stuck?
Read the documentation first. Every app has its own guides and reference, and most questions are answered there. If it is not, get in touch. Messages are answered by the person who built the app, usually within a working day.
Can you set it up for me?
Tell us what you are trying to do. The apps are built so that setting them up is not a service you should have to buy, and if you are finding it hard that is usually a fault in the app rather than in you, so we would like to hear about it either way.
Can I ask for a feature?
Yes, and it helps to say what you were trying to do rather than what you think the feature should be. A surprising number of requests turn out to be something the app already does badly rather than something it does not do.
Still not sure?
Describe your week and we will tell you honestly which of these would help and which would not. If the answer is none of them, we will say that too.
