Digital Product Delivery
Automated file delivery for digital shop products. On purchase, the buyer receives a signed, time-limited download link. Physical products gain shipping address collection and fulfillment tracking.
- ·Signed download URL generated on webhook confirmation
- ·Files stored in Vercel Blob; access logged per download
- ·Physical: shipping address collected at Stripe checkout
- ·Seller marks orders shipped; buyer notified with tracking info
Pro Tier Exclusive Features
Pro tier is defined and gated but exclusive features beyond AI Chat are not yet designed. Known candidates include manuscript editing tools, priority discovery placement, and advanced analytics.
- ·Manuscript editing and polish tools
- ·Priority placement in Lobby discovery
- ·Advanced analytics: read counts, time-on-page, completion rates
- ·Custom domain support for author profile pages
Messaging System Consolidation
Two parallel messaging systems currently exist in the codebase. This phase consolidates them, cleans up the orphaned routes, and enables author-to-author direct messaging — which is already built behind a feature flag.
- ·Active system (message_threads / thread_messages): powers /dashboard/messages with contact support and direct message thread types — fully functional for support tickets
- ·Orphaned system (conversations / messages collections): API routes built but no dashboard UI ever connected; effectively dead code to be removed
- ·Direct messaging is already built in the active system behind the directMessagingEnabled feature flag — enabling it is the main unlock
- ·Message button to be added to public author and reader profile pages to initiate a direct thread
- ·Orphaned routes and collections cleaned up after confirming empty in production
- ·The world licensing invite notification will use the existing thread system — no additional messaging infrastructure needed
