How Earnings Work

Revenue Sources

**1. Marketplace Usage**

When Assisters subscribers chat with your assistant:

• Each conversation generates tokens
• Tokens are tracked and attributed to your assistant
• You earn a competitive share of the subscription revenue proportional to usage

**2. Embed/API Usage**

When businesses use your assistant via embed or API:

• They pay from their wallet per token
• You set the per-token price (minimum $3.75/million)
• You earn a competitive share of every dollar spent

Competitive Revenue Share

For every dollar of revenue your assistant generates, you receive a competitive share while Assisters handles infrastructure, LLM costs, and platform maintenance.

This split is transparent and consistent across all revenue types.

Calculating Earnings

**Marketplace example:**

• User on Plus plan ($19/month) chats with 5 different assistants
• They spend 40% of their usage on your assistant
• You earn a proportional share based on their usage

**Embed example:**

• Business spends $100/month on your assistant via API
• You earn a competitive share of that revenue
