Flow scenario

Scenario E1

Buyer downloads AI Production Assurance framework

Trigger

  • Customer completes Stripe payment for AI Production Assurance product
  • Webhook fires within 2 minutes, entitlement granted
  • Personal delivery email arrives with unique download link
  • Customer clicks link and downloads the framework PDF

Experience

  1. Download is instant — no additional authentication required.
  2. PDF is branded, versioned, and includes implementation checklist.
  3. Onboarding email sequence begins: Day 1 welcome, Day 3 implementation tip, Day 7 check-in.
  4. Customer accesses the framework and starts implementing.
  5. 7-day NPS survey asks "How likely are you to recommend this framework?"

Trust and safety rules

  • Download links are time-limited and single-use — prevents credential sharing.
  • All entitlement access is logged with timestamp and IP for audit.
  • Customer data is never shared with third parties without explicit consent.
  • Refund policy is clearly stated in CGV before purchase.
  • Support contact is visible in the entitlement dashboard and footer.
