Emails — What Needs Attention

• Google Ads API compliance (May 15, IMPORTANT). They need a clearer picture of business model before approving Ads API access. Reply with a concise Slate description today. Without this the Google Ads automation is blocked.
• Razorpay — 2 subscriptions cancelled (Slate Plus, May 15). Sub IDs sub_SpYC0APRBJGUAY and sub_SnlL4pILYK1MDz. Check the dashboard to confirm whether these are test cancellations or real customer churn. If real, log to TODO.
• **Spiff.store — submission confirmed.** No action.
• Loom Business + AI 14-day trial started (May 15). Trial ends May 29. Calendar a reminder to cancel or convert.
• GettingSmart newsletter. Skim only if relevant to K-12 positioning.

Notion / TODO Review

Master TODO (33cd70add6ce80ddaf14c368e09127a5) still has the same unresolved items:

• razorpay error, gemini tts error, attachment popup no close, first page image not generated, quiz on slide 2 too early, whiteboard zoom not needed
• Reuse courses + RAG for course reselect
• cheaper TTS (Kokoro docker, command saved in TODO)
• chalklabs.ai domain still unbought
