- Teaching-safe code walkthroughs
- Prompt Library access
- Teaching bundle and code export downloads where available
- Simulated demos and Premium Behind-the-Button explanations

Feature Packs start from £3 and are separate one-off purchases for individual Premium builds. A Feature Pack unlocks one lab only. Full VCA Core Course students already get the complete Premium guided lab layer, and free accounts still get Build Maps. The Starter Bundle lets signed-in free learners buy all three current Feature Packs for £13, with the cheapest pack free.
