Looked good until the changes
This was my first foray into app sumo.
I looked over white labels for a while as I just wanted a side hustle. Was willing to pay for a good platform or idea and this looked so good. Its the old saying isnt it.
I paid for the top tier ten.
Wouldn't you know it - as soon as I got my offer ready for customers and website together ready to sell and I had people ready to sub that were really interested, the original offer from followr just changed.
The ai image generators reduced to just Dalle . From a whole bunch to pick from.
And then the generous media credits I thought I'd paid for were reduced, adding access to ai video generation, one choice but for 100 credits, an agency now has 5500 credits, that's a huge reduction, we know ai gen chews through credits.
As a user (I tested it) when you click on the locked ai vid components on the dashboard menu, you're taken to plans, that basically sell direct to your customer in their company dashboard. That would be fair enough to onsell ai video, but as an "agency" no ability to choose not to, nor to hide those settings from the USER, to gate keep that or even have an option to on sell, put a margin on top? - but that is just selling the user/customer directly. I'm annoyed I don't even know what I'm selling my customer in the future because I'll end up either having a plan rugged underfoot, or followr will sell direct to the customer through the dashboard and make me look like a chump. Or on top of paying 800 dollars Id have to buy a monthly sub so my customers don't see the upsell. Not cool.
I wont buy from app sumo again if this is how it is.
As a buyer above said, feels like we are sales leads AND we paid for it and lost what we'd paid for.

Mar 25, 2026Hey — I understand why this feels frustrating, especially given the timing with your launch. That’s definitely not the experience we want you to have.
A couple of important clarifications:
We haven’t reduced the platform in the way it might seem. On the AI side, we didn’t “cut down to just DALL·E” — we actually restructured providers and added newer models, while also strengthening BYOK so you’re not locked into a single provider. The goal was to make the system more flexible and future-proof, not to limit you.
On credits: we know AI (especially video) is expensive and burns fast. That’s exactly why some of these newer features are separated — not to take value away from LTDs, but because the cost structure is fundamentally different from when the original deal was launched.
Regarding the agency/upsell concern — this is valid feedback. The current setup isn’t perfect yet in terms of controlling what your end users see or how you monetize it, and we’re actively looking into improving that. The intention is not to bypass you or sell “behind your back,” but we understand how it can feel that way right now.
Looking forward: we’re actively exploring ways to bring more value back to LTD users, including potentially launching new offerings specifically for LTDs if we can make the economics work (for example, through add-ons or similar models).
Also, right now a big part of our focus is on creatives — especially carousels — which we believe is a key area where the product needed improvement. There are a lot of updates coming very soon, and you should start seeing that reflected in the app shortly.
We’re not here to rug anyone — we’re building, evolving, and trying to make this sustainable long-term. And feedback like yours is exactly what helps us adjust faster.
