Annual Discount
Trade a lower effective rate for twelve months of commitment, lifting cash upfront and cutting churn in a single decision.
What it adds
Using your existing monthly pricing, retention notes, and cost structure, the builder produces an annual option presented as months saved rather than a raw percentage, with a toggle that reframes every plan at once. It converts because a buyer already sold on the product will take a concrete reduction to avoid twelve future decisions, and because the saving is expressed in the unit they think in. The goal is shifting a measurable share of new subscriptions to annual billing.

What your builder is told to do
7The actual instructions, in order.
-
1
Inspect the current price sheet and any churn or cost notes in the source files, and list each plan's monthly rate along with any constraint on how far it can be discounted.
-
2
Choose the discount depth from the source data rather than convention, then express it consistently as a number of free months plus the effective monthly equivalent, since both framings carry different weight for different buyers.
-
3
Build a billing-state toggle that switches every plan simultaneously, defaults to the annual view, and shows the monthly-equivalent figure large with the total annual charge stated directly beneath it so the actual amount billed is never a surprise.
-
4
Place the saving on each plan card as an absolute amount for that specific plan, not a single site-wide percentage, because the absolute figure grows with the plan and strengthens higher tiers.
-
5
Define the switching rules in visible copy: mid-cycle upgrade behavior on an annual term, whether a monthly subscriber can convert and how remaining time is credited, and what happens at renewal.
-
6
Address the commitment objection in one block using only documented policy, describing the refund or cancellation terms exactly as the source files state them, with no added promise.
-
7
Specify responsive behavior: on mobile, place the toggle above the plans with the saving repeated inside each card since only one card is visible at a time; on tablet, keep the toggle pinned while plan cards scroll; on desktop, put the toggle centred above the plan row with a single saving summary line that updates as the state changes.

Edge cases it handles
5The things an agent skips when you only say "build a annual discount".
- A subscriber converting from monthly mid-cycle needs an explicit proration rule and a preview of the exact charge.
- Seat or usage changes during an annual term require a stated true-up mechanic rather than silent adjustment.
- Failed annual renewals are higher-value than monthly ones and need a longer, clearly communicated retry and grace window.
- Tax treatment can differ for an annual charge by region, so displayed totals must state whether tax is included.
- If the source files include no churn or cost data, the discount depth is an assumption and must be flagged rather than presented as optimized.

- Every plan shows a monthly-equivalent price and the exact annual amount that will be charged.
- The saving is displayed as an absolute amount per plan and additionally as months saved.
- The billing-state toggle changes all plans together and its default state is deliberate and documented.
- Conversion, proration, mid-term change, and renewal rules are all stated in visible copy.
- Mobile, tablet, and desktop toggle placement and behavior each match the specification.
- Refund and cancellation language matches the source policy exactly with nothing added.
- The builder reports which source files supplied monthly prices and policy text, and lists any discount-depth assumption it could not ground in data.

It maps, then builds
Your agent reads the blueprint first, then builds the offer into your app around the product, audience, and stack.
Works with your stack
These blueprints are written to adapt. They tell the agent to detect your framework, match your existing design system, and use your source files instead of guessing the offer.
Need it tighter than that? Customize the offer file and tell it exactly which source docs and stack to use.
