AOP.biz bundle contents come from GUIDE-436 (`WeOwnAi/s004_fedarch/_GUIDES_/GUIDE-436.md`). + +**Updated 27 September 2026:** the rewards are now three sections: The book, Build it yourself or with us (AOP.biz bundles), and In person (the Burned Out Advisor Retreat). Sections 7 to 9 are now The book and AiBook.fun, Build it yourself or with us, and In person: the Retreat. The Academy is held out of launch, so its header, map, and site cards are no longer in the set (their source stays in `build.py` behind `ACADEMY_IN_LAUNCH = False`). New: `08b-bundle-comparison.png`. Changed: 06b, 06c, 11b (vertical timeline with the 20 October cutoff), 14b (AOP.biz bundles lead instead of Academy lead). Renamed without other changes: the AiBook.fun device mockup is now `07b` (was 09b). - Kickstarter shows story images about 680 px wide. Every file here is exported at 1360 px wide (2x) as PNG, well under 5 MB. - Workflow from the guide: add each section title as a Heading in the Story editor, insert that section's header image under it, paste the text, then add the section's other images where they fit. - **Book cover:** the cover is the one already designed for the landing page: the 3D book in `marketing-site/components/Book3D.jsx` (styles `.book3d*` in `marketing-site/styles/globals.css`, belly band `marketing-site/public/american-dream-banner.webp`). `src/render_cover.py` screenshots it exactly as it appears on https://aibook.fun, in its resting pose, and saves `src/assets-gen/cover-3d.png` (3D, transparent background) and `cover-flat.png` (front face only). Nothing about it was redesigned. **Note:** the landing cover reads "The Field Guide / Responsible Agentic AI / Tested workflows you can actually run / AiBook.fun" with an "American Dream" band. It does not say "We Own AI". If the campaign title should be on the cover, update Book3D.jsx first and re-render. -- **Real screenshots:** 05b and 09b are screenshots of the live site (https://aibook.fun/read/recipe/RE-01 and https://aibook.fun/read/real-estate), taken by `src/render_screens.py`. +- **Real screenshots:** 05b and 07b are screenshots of the live site (https://aibook.fun/read/recipe/RE-01 and https://aibook.fun/read/real-estate), taken by `src/render_screens.py`. - Style: the AiBook.fun field-guide system from `marketing-site/styles/globals.css` (paper `#fcfbf8`/`#f6f4ee`, pine `#1c5d4c`/`#12463a`, amber `#b4791f`; Fraunces, Hanken Grotesk, JetBrains Mono). The compass mark comes from `Book3D.jsx`. Emoji in headers use Noto Color Emoji and match the guide's section headings. - Everything was built as HTML/CSS and rendered with headless Chrome. **No AI-generated imagery is used.** For Kickstarter's Use of AI section: none of these images were made with AI image tools. - Files marked **PLACEHOLDER** have empty frames for photos (or names) the owner has to supply.
