As a Tier 5 Lifetime Deal investor, I supported Supermachine early with the belief that it would be a long-term creative platform that continued to grow with its users. Unfortunately, that investment has lost much of its value over time.

Supermachine has introduced a new “Gem” system for its latest and most capable AI models, which now require additional payment to use. Lifetime Deal users cannot access these models with their existing credits and are effectively limited to older, outdated models that no longer keep pace with current AI generation standards or professional expectations.

I understand that newer, licensed models come with costs, but the outcome is that early supporters now have very limited practical value left in their deal. The introduction of a separate paid system has placed the most meaningful updates out of reach for Lifetime Deal users.

Equally disappointing is the lack of clear communication around these changes. There was never a detailed explanation of how future updates or model access would be handled for Lifetime Deal tiers, and this lack of transparency has understandably led to frustration among early backers.

Supermachine still operates, but for Lifetime Deal investors, it feels like being left behind on an older version while the platform moves forward elsewhere.
