J.Ai Support

Personalized guidance to enhance practice

J.Ai (pronounced "Jay") is your personal AI piano coach that works alongside JazzEdge's expert-led video lessons. Unlike static online courses, J.Ai:

• Creates personalized practice plans based on your skill level, goals, and available practice time
• Explains complex music concepts in simple terms based on your learning style
• Helps you break down difficult passages from lessons into manageable practice chunks
• Provides 24/7 support for any piano-related questions you have during your practice
• Adapts to how you learn best (visual, auditory, or hands-on)

Think of J.Ai as having a piano teacher available anytime you need guidance, without having to wait for your next scheduled lesson.

Absolutely not! JazzEdge and J.Ai work for complete beginners through advanced players. If you're starting from zero:

• J.Ai will assess your current level (even if that's "never touched a piano")
• You'll be guided to beginner-appropriate lessons that start with the fundamentals
• J.Ai will explain music terminology in simple, non-technical language
• Your learning path will progress at a comfortable pace for your skill development

Many of our most successful students started with zero piano knowledge. The combination of expert video instruction and J.Ai's personalized guidance creates an ideal environment for beginners.

One of the biggest advantages of JazzEdge with J.Ai is that it adapts to your available practice time. Many students see noticeable progress with just 15-20 minutes of consistent daily practice.

Here's how J.Ai optimizes your practice time:

• If you have limited time, J.Ai creates focused micro-practice sessions that target specific skills
• For those with more time, J.Ai develops comprehensive practice routines that build multiple skills simultaneously
• J.Ai helps identify which techniques will give you the biggest improvement for your time investment
• You'll learn efficient practice strategies that professional musicians use to maximize results

The key is consistency over quantity. Regular short sessions are far more effective than occasional long ones, and J.Ai is designed to help you establish a sustainable practice habit.

While our name includes "Jazz," JazzEdge offers comprehensive instruction across multiple piano styles, including:

• Jazz: From swing to bebop to modern jazz piano techniques
• Blues: Classic blues progressions, licks, and improvisation approaches
• Pop/Rock: Contemporary piano techniques, common chord progressions, and accompaniment styles

J.Ai helps you find lessons that match your preferred musical styles and can create learning paths that blend multiple genres based on your interests. The skills you learn are transferable across styles, giving you a well-rounded piano education.

"Tokens" are simply how we measure your interactions with J.Ai. Each membership includes 250,000 tokens per month, which is generous for most students. To give you perspective:

• Creating a personalized practice plan uses approximately 1,000-2,000 tokens
• Getting a lesson summary typically uses 800-1,200 tokens
• Asking specific questions about technique might use 300-500 tokens per question
• A typical active student uses 30,000-50,000 tokens per month

Your 250,000 monthly tokens are more than enough for regular, active learning. They reset each month, and you can always see your current token usage in your account dashboard. The token system ensures J.Ai delivers high-quality, personalized guidance while keeping membership affordable.

Don't worry! If you happen to use all your monthly J.Ai tokens:

• All video lessons will continue to work normally with no interruption
• You'll still have access to all course materials, downloads, and resources
• Your account dashboard will show when your tokens will refresh (on your monthly renewal date)
• You can continue learning through the expert-led video lessons while waiting for your tokens to reset

Token usage is designed to be generous. With 250,000 tokens per month (which reset automatically), most students use only a fraction of their allocation. This is equivalent to having hundreds of personalized conversations with your AI piano coach each month.

If you find yourself consistently using all your tokens, it's actually a good sign - it means you're deeply engaged with your learning! For power users who need more, we can discuss options to increase your token allocation.

You can start learning with any keyboard or piano, but here are some general recommendations:

• Absolute beginners: Any keyboard with at least 61 keys is fine to start
• Advancing students: An 88-key keyboard with weighted or semi-weighted keys will provide a better experience
• Ideal setup: An acoustic piano or high-quality digital piano with fully-weighted keys

If you're unsure about what instrument to get, you can ask J.Ai for personalized recommendations based on your goals, budget, and living situation. Many students start with a simple keyboard and upgrade later as their skills and commitment grow.

The most important thing is to start learning - don't let not having the "perfect" instrument stop you from beginning your piano journey!

J.Ai complements rather than replaces human instruction. Here's how it compares:

Many students use JazzEdge with J.Ai as their primary learning method, while others use it to supplement in-person lessons. J.Ai helps you practice effectively between human teacher sessions, maximizing progress for less than the cost of a single private lesson per month.

We keep our membership options simple and flexible:

• Monthly plan: $17/month, billed monthly until canceled
• 6-month plan: $99/6 months ($16.50/month equivalent), billed every 6 months until canceled
• All plans include: Full access to all courses, 250k J.Ai tokens monthly, and all J.Ai tools
• Free trial: 7-day free trial to explore the platform before being charged
• Cancellation: Easy self-service cancellation through your account dashboard at any time

Your membership gives you access to over 90 hours of expert-led video lessons plus J.Ai support - that's less than the cost of a single in-person piano lesson.

We also offer a 30-day money-back guarantee, so you can try JazzEdge risk-free. If you're not satisfied with your experience, simply contact us within 30 days for a full refund.

No! You can start learning piano without reading music. JazzEdge offers multiple approaches to learning:

• Visual learning: Follow along with on-screen demonstrations and keyboard visualizations
• By ear: Many lessons teach you to play by listening and understanding chord structures
• Pattern-based: Learn common patterns and shapes on the keyboard without reading traditional notation

That said, if you want to learn to read music, the JazzEdge network has comprehensive courses that teach music reading from scratch. J.Ai can explain notation concepts in simple terms and create practice exercises to develop your reading skills gradually.

Many students start playing enjoyable music right away using pattern-based approaches, then gradually add music reading skills as they progress. J.Ai will help customize your learning path based on your preferences.

JazzEdge stands apart from other online piano courses in several key ways:

• J.Ai Personalization: While other platforms offer one-size-fits-all content, J.Ai creates a learning experience tailored specifically to you
• 24/7 Support: Most online courses leave you on your own between lessons; J.Ai is available anytime to answer questions and provide guidance
• Adaptive Learning: As your skills improve, J.Ai adjusts your learning path automatically, preventing plateaus
• Multiple Teaching Approaches: J.Ai explains concepts in different ways based on your learning style, not just one fixed method
• Practical Application Focus: Beyond just teaching theory, JazzEdge emphasizes how to apply what you learn to actual music
• Improvisation & Creativity: Unlike courses that focus solely on reproducing sheet music, JazzEdge helps you develop your own musical voice

The combination of expert-led video instruction and J.Ai's personalized guidance creates a learning experience that adapts to you, rather than forcing you to adapt to a rigid curriculum. It's like having both a comprehensive course library and a personal piano coach available 24/7.
