What you're buying.

Last updated Oct 29, 2026

01Who sells it

Duck Round, operated by Brandon Niehaus. Contact: [email protected].

02What you get

A preorder for Duck Round v1: a private GitHub repo of Python drills with pytest test cases. That's 15 pattern sets, 2 timed online assessment practice sets and 10 "Spot the AI's bug" drills, plus recall emails on days 1, 3, 7, 14 and 30.

v1 ships Jan 15, 2027. There's no web app in v1. You need Python 3 and a free GitHub account.

03Price

Founding price: $15, one-time, for the first 50 buyers or until Dec 13, 2026, whichever comes first. After that: $29, one-time. No subscription.

04Lifetime access

Lifetime access means you keep access to the Duck Round repo, including every update I add, for as long as I run Duck Round. If I ever stop, I'll email you first, and anything you've already cloned is yours to keep.

05Roadmap vote

Founding members can vote on what gets built after v1. I read every vote and use them to set priorities, but the final call on what ships is mine.

06Refunds

Full refund any time before launch, an automatic full refund if v1 isn't delivered by Jan 31, 2027, and a full refund within 14 days of getting access. If Duck Round doesn't go ahead, everyone is refunded in full by Dec 20, 2026. The full policy is on the refund policy page.

07Using the drills

The drills are for your own practice. Please don't share the repo or republish the drills.
