Why Pro is worth it

The €199/year isn't for a PDF of free content. It's for Prova running on your own data, the entire continuously-updated curriculum, verifiable certificates, saved work, higher compute — and every book, living.

Less than the big subscription platforms charge for a fixed course library — and Pro runs on your own data.

Frequently asked questions

Is the book really free to read?
Yes. Every chapter is a free, runnable lesson online — the complete book, no paywall on understanding. Pro adds the offline typeset PDF/ePub, Prova on your own data, certificates, and more.
Can I buy just this one book?
The offline PDF is a Pro perk, not sold on its own. If you want a single-book, one-time purchase, the ebook is available on Kindle. Everything else lives in Pro.
What formats does the Pro book come in?
A typeset PDF at launch, with ePub as a fast-follow — both watermarked to your account and auto-updated from the same source as the free lessons.
Do the books keep getting updated?
Yes. Each book is generated from the living lessons, so your offline copy tracks the latest edition — no frozen, out-of-date PDF.
I bought this book before — what happens to my purchase?
Your past purchase and Kindle copy stay yours. Pro is a new, recurring option that adds the living online book plus the whole platform.
