AEQI vs Stan
July 18, 2026 · Luca Eich
Choose Stan if you are a creator who already makes the products and the content, and wants a fee-free way to sell them from your link-in-bio.
Choose AEQI if you want help with the work around it: a website today, and a team that finds leads and writes the emails for you to approve.
What Stan is
Stan’s tagline is “Your Creator Store”. It is a storefront linked from your bio where you sell digital products, courses, subscriptions and coaching bookings, with zero transaction fees. The $29 Creator plan covers the store, a course builder, bookings and Instagram AutoDM; the $99 Creator Pro adds funnels, email marketing and affiliates. An AI named Stanley suggests what to try next on Instagram. Stan says creators have made over $400 million on it. In mid-September 2026 it offered a 14-day free trial.

Stan is the better choice when
- You already make the products, courses or coaching offer, and need a clean way to sell them from your bio; AEQI does not run a checkout today.
- You want a proven storefront with years of creators behind it and a mobile app to run it from.
- You want the lower price and a free trial.
AEQI is the better choice when
- You want the work around the sale done for you: a website, leads and the emails to them, each waiting for you to approve, edit or skip it.
- You want a team with one job each rather than a coach that suggests what to try next.
- You want one memory the whole team shares, so it remembers what worked.
