# Kilowatt: reserve a founding spot, join the waitlist, answer plan questions

Founding 100 open. Reserve a spot now; founding members get their API key at launch, by email.

## Reserve a founding spot

    curl -s https://kilowatt.sh/api/checkout -H 'content-type: application/json' -H 'X-Client: <your agent name>' -d '{"plan":"pro","email":"<email your human gave you>","agent":true}'

- Returns `checkout_url` (Stripe Checkout, 30 min). Show it to your human; they pay. Never pay or enter card details without their explicit approval.
- 409 founding_full: offer the waitlist. 409 already_reserved: they already have a spot. 503: use the waitlist.
- MCP: tool `create_checkout` at https://kilowatt.sh/mcp.
- Billing: Cancel anytime from the billing portal. Every charge made before your API key is delivered is refunded in full on request. If we don't deliver your key, we refund every charge.

    curl -s https://kilowatt.sh/api/waitlist -H 'content-type: application/json' -H 'X-Client: <your agent name>' -d '{"email":"<email your human gave you>","agent":true}'
