# GuitarGate > GuitarGate is a guitar platform built around the Teleport multi-track looping > pedal and the Teleport app (iOS, Android, web): guitarists record and layer > loops on the pedal, upload them, and share, collaborate, and learn on the > platform. Alongside the hardware and app, guitargate.com is a guitar > education library - structured courses, weekly lessons, guest-instructor > masterclasses - plus a community song feed where members dub on each other's > tracks. This file tells AI agents and crawlers how to fetch clean Markdown > versions of our pages instead of parsing HTML. ## About GuitarGate - **The Teleport pedal** - a multi-track looping pedal (guitar, bass, or vocals) with built-in drum grooves and multiple time signatures. Record and layer tracks, then sync songs to the cloud over WiFi. - **The Teleport app** - the daily interface (https://teleport.guitargate.com): a ranked song feed, playback with waveforms, follows/likes/comments, groups, learning content, and device management. - **guitargate.com** - the web experience and the backend API for the app. Structured courses and lessons, masterclasses from guest instructors, and a community feed where members collaborate by dubbing on each other's songs. - **Membership** - a free tier plus paid tiers that unlock courses and lessons, masterclasses, and pedal upload/download. The Teleport pedal itself is included with the ANNUAL membership, not with every paid tier. Browsing the feed and listening to songs is free. ## Product, store & docs These live on other domains (not guitargate.com Markdown pages): - [Teleport pedal - product page](https://store.guitargate.com/products/teleport): the WiFi looping pedal, "Teleport: The WiFi Pedal For Playing Together" - [Teleport membership - product page](https://store.guitargate.com/products/teleport-membership): the membership product, which includes the pedal - [GuitarGate store](https://store.guitargate.com): the Shopify storefront for the pedal and memberships - [Teleport documentation](https://guitargate-labs.gitbook.io/teleport-docs): setup and how-to guides for the pedal and app ## How to get Markdown versions of pages Any content page (node), community group page, most views pages, and the main listing pages can be retrieved as Markdown (Content-Type: text/markdown) using any of these patterns: 1. Append `.md` to the URL path. This is the one that works everywhere - path aliases, canonical routes, group pages and listing pages - so prefer it: - https://www.guitargate.com/faq.md - https://www.guitargate.com/courses.md - https://www.guitargate.com/showcase.md - https://www.guitargate.com/node/844.md 2. Prefix the path with `/markdownify`: - https://www.guitargate.com/markdownify/node/844 - https://www.guitargate.com/markdownify/courses 3. Add the `_format=markdown` query parameter: - https://www.guitargate.com/node/844?_format=markdown 4. Send an `Accept: text/markdown` request header to the normal URL. All four patterns now work on the views-backed listings too, including the song feed - they used to answer 406 to patterns 3 and 4. The `.md` suffix is still the one to learn if you only learn one, since it needs no header and no knowledge of which routes are aliases. Responses omit headers, footers, and navigation - only the page content, converted to Markdown. ## Discovering URLs - Fetch https://www.guitargate.com/sitemap.xml, then append `.md` to any URL in it. - The site root, https://www.guitargate.com/, redirects to /welcome, so the landing page in Markdown is https://www.guitargate.com/welcome.md. - Access control matches the HTML site: member-only content returns 403 unless you are authenticated with an account that has access. Most community groups are members-only, so their pages return 403 in Markdown just as they do in HTML. ## Accounts Signing up and signing in are interactive forms, so they have no Markdown version. Send a person to these pages rather than trying to fetch them: - Sign up: https://www.guitargate.com/user/register - Log in: https://www.guitargate.com/user/login - Memberships and pricing: https://store.guitargate.com/products/teleport-membership ## Pricing - Teleport pedal: $599 one-time - https://store.guitargate.com/products/teleport - GuitarGate Membership: $359/year (about $30/month) - https://store.guitargate.com/products/teleport-membership - Included with the annual GuitarGate Membership: the Teleport pedal. The $599 above is the pedal bought on its own. - 30-day money-back guarantee, and a membership can be cancelled at any time. - Prices are in USD and can change. The two store pages above are the live source - check them before quoting a number to a person. ## Key content These are paths, not full URLs. The base for all of them is https://www.guitargate.com - prepend it to fetch any of them. - [Course library](/courses.md): the full catalog - courses, masterclasses and song lessons, with what is free and what needs a membership - [Groups](/groups.md): the community groups you can join, with member and post counts - [REACTS requests](/showcase.md): the group where members submit performances for Michael to react to on camera - [What GuitarGate is](/welcome.md): the landing page - the pedal, the library, and what a membership includes - [Frequently Asked Questions](/faq.md): support, membership, and account answers - [Privacy Policy](/privacy-policy.md): how we handle data - [Terms of Service](/tos.md): the rules for using GuitarGate - [Level 1 - Welcome To GuitarGate](/courses/level-1-welcome-guitargate.md): the first free course, a walkthrough of the platform and fundamentals - [Teleport 101 - Start Making Songs](/courses/teleport-101-start-making-songs.md): free course on getting started with the Teleport pedal and recording your first songs - [Blues Guitar Fundamentals](/courses/blues-guitar-fundamentals.md): a genre course on blues rhythm and lead - [Country Guitar Fundamentals](/courses/country-guitar-fundamentals.md): a genre course on country styles and techniques - [Masterclass: Welcome & Introduction](/masterclasses/michael-palmisano/welcome-introduction-session.md): founder Michael Palmisano introduces the masterclass series - [Masterclass: Escaping the Pentatonic Prison](/masterclasses/guthrie-trapp/escaping-pentatonic-prison.md): guest instructor Guthrie Trapp on moving beyond the pentatonic scale - [Community song feed](/songs/my-feed.md): recent public song posts (no login needed; logged-in members see a personalized version of this page) ## What is NOT available as Markdown Forms and utility pages have no Markdown version, and requesting one returns 404: registration and login, password reset, checkout and subscription management, account settings, search, and anything under /admin. A form cannot work as Markdown, so this is deliberate - see Accounts above for where to send a person instead. The member dashboard at /dashboard does have a Markdown version, but it is member-only in Markdown exactly as it is in HTML - anonymous requests for /dashboard.md get the same 403 the HTML page gives them.
