You earn on every print. You earn on every tip. You never touch a box.
One Cover.
Infinite Artforms.
Most artists have one piece of art per album. Not per song. That art is stuck in a square — not great on a poster, terrible on a shirt.
Artforms break it out. Transparent backgrounds, 4K resolution, print-ready derivatives for posters, shirts, stickers, anything.
All AI tools priced at cost + 20% with full transparency. You approve what you like. Done.
- Transparent 4K PNGs — no awkward boxes on shirts
- Style-matched to your original vision
- No designer needed — just approve or reject
- Each Artform becomes a collectible for fans

Why This Platform Is Different
This isn't another merch service. It's built differently, on purpose.
Your Rights Are Locked
- 100% IP ownership — always
- 70%+ margin on sales
- 100% of tips (we take nothing)
- Exit anytime — no handcuffs
Built to Exit to You
- Legally barred from selling to outsiders
- No VC exits, no enshittification
- Mission can't be abandoned
- Community ownership is the endgame
What You Actually Earn
Full transparency. Real numbers.
How it breaks down: $12.70 manufacturing + $2.54 platform (20%) + $2.54 artist (20%)
Shipping: ~$3-6 first item, ~$0.50 each additional. Larger orders = bigger savings.
Your Revenue Model
- Non-owner prints: 75% of margin (after manufacturing)
- Owner prints: 20% of manufacturing cost (minimum $2) — same as platform
- Tips: 100%. We take nothing. Tax-free under No Tax on Tips Act.
Full Transparency.
Every order breaks down in real-time. You see exactly where every dollar goes — manufacturing, shipping, fees, platform, and your cut.
All payments flow through Stripe. You connect your own Stripe account — we never touch your money.
Most platforms mark up everything and hide the math. We show you the receipts.
Never Get Stuck Again.
No budget for designers. No art for individual songs. No time to create variants. Wherever you might hit a wall, we've built intelligence-on-demand to solve it.
These tools were impossible months ago. They get better and cheaper every week. We use the best tech available and pass it to you at cost + 20%, with full transparency.
