Founding pilot

Build your first placement.
We’ll help you launch it.

A limited, white-glove program for artists and their first partners—built to turn a real space into a trackable, revenue-sharing sales channel.

For artists

Free for 90 days

Artists pay no subscription fee during the pilot. Your 90 days begin when your first placement is live—not when you apply.

After the pilot, we'll discuss ongoing membership before any paid plan begins. Nothing renews or bills automatically.

Attributed pilot sales

5% platform fee

For the first 12 months, the Founding Pilot fee applies only to sales attributed to your pilot placement.

For hosts

Free to join

Hosts and venues can participate without a card, subscription, or payment commitment during the pilot.

What we set up with you

  • A shared partnership structure for an artist and host
  • A clear agreement with terms, revenue shares, and signatures
  • Placement-specific QR cards and guest pages
  • Attribution tracking and a sales ledger for the pilot
  • Artist and host dashboards to keep the partnership visible
  • Personal support for your first live placement

A simple first sale

A $1,000 attributed sale can be clear for everyone.

With a 20% host share, the Founding Pilot's 5% fee is deducted first, then the agreement determines how the remaining revenue is shared.

Questions

Who is the Founding Pilot for?

Artists who have a first potential partner or location, along with hosts such as short-term rentals, homes, cafés, boutiques, and community spaces that want to support an artist.

When do the 90 days begin?

Your pilot starts when the first agreed placement is live. Applying and planning together do not use any of the pilot period.

What happens after the pilot?

Before any paid membership begins, we'll discuss the right ongoing plan with you. Nothing renews or bills automatically after the 90-day pilot.

Are artists or hosts charged during the pilot?

No. Artists and hosts both join free during the Founding Pilot. The goal is to make the first partnership easy to activate for both sides.

How does the 5% fee work?

It applies to sales attributed to a Founding Pilot placement for the initial 12 months. Your agreement records the artist and host revenue share; payment processing costs may apply separately once payments are enabled.

Is a card required to apply?

No. Applying only starts a conversation about your first placement. No payment is collected through this form.
