Everything on Step In The Ring is free and open right now. Your work is kept in this browser as you go, and it's all in Your work when you come back. Your ideas, projects, and output remain yours.
Free, no account needed
- Every engine in the Engine Room, run end to end, with no sign-in

- The Build Machine guide and the Ready to Build computer check
- Starting an idea here, or carrying one in from iDontCry
- Work saves to this browser as you go — it's there when you come back on this device
Invited testers
A few invited testers have accounts so their builds follow them between devices. They cost nothing, and there's no sign-up.
What a tester account stores
- Your email, a password hash, your access status, and the projects you choose to save. Nothing else.
- Export and deletion are self-serve from your account page.
- You own your original ideas, project content, and resulting output. Open Mirror owns its software, brands, and engine logic.
- Outside services you choose to use (GitHub, AI assistants, hosting) are separate, with their own terms.
