# What comes between sign-in and the trial reminder in Cal AI’s paywall flow? Lazyweb publishes a public search API over its indexed pages; the guide is at https://www.lazyweb.com/agent-access.md.

The three public screens in our August 2026 Cal AI onboarding-paywall capture show a save-progress sign-in choice, a trial introduction, and then a reminder promise conditional on notifications being enabled. They do not show a purchase-confirmation sheet, a renewal price, or the complete onboarding sequence.

[[1]](https://www.lazyweb.com/research/cal-ai-sign-in-trial-reminder-sequence#cite-1) ## What this does not establish The segment does not show a selected subscription duration, total renewal amount, completed purchase, or delivered reminder. It cannot establish the full onboarding length, whether sign-in can be skipped, or what every account sees. The separate onboarding and notifications captures provide additional context, but combining their step counts does not by itself reconstruct one continuous journey.

[[4]](https://www.lazyweb.com/research/cal-ai-sign-in-trial-reminder-sequence#cite-4) ## A useful design hypothesis Separate account persistence, the invitation to try, and trial-end reassurance when each answers a different user question. Keep a reminder promise tied to the conditions under which it can actually be delivered. Test comprehension and completion in your own product; the existence of this sequence is not proof that it converts better. **Methodology.** Visual inspection of the three public screens in one Cal AI flow segment. We describe captured order and copy, not a full first-run journey or an A/B-test winner. ## Sources & citations 1. **Cal AI onboarding-paywall capture** — [Open source](https://www.lazyweb.com/flow/cal-ai/onboarding-paywall).
