I love this platform. The content is great, they also organize a Go League, they host a discord channel and in general they are very responsive. You get a lot of free content but the paid content is absolutely worth its money. Read on Trustpilot

I joined as a Gold member for 3 months, and my game had already changed in the first 2 weeks. I highly recommend the site to anyone who thinks they understand the game, but isn’t really improving past DDK. It will definitely open new doors for you. Read on Trustpilot
