The tool has yet to launch, but when it does, it will be a paid add-on.

They think people will pay extra for this?

I choose to parse “tool” as a disparaging epithet in this context, instead of the classical definition

They'll move the no-ads thing to it so then they can show the shareholders how great AI is for their business even though people only get it to get rid of the ads.

They patted themselves on the back for calling it a "tool", rather than an assistant, or some other anthropomorphic term.
