- All other formats must be Creator-Made or AI-Assisted, with original work from you.

Basic is free. Creator Plus is $9.99 a month or $99 a year. You can start on Basic and upgrade at any time from Plan & Billing.
On Basic you keep 70% of eligible sales (30% commission); on Creator Plus you keep 85% (15% commission) and get priority support. Every creator gets a storefront, one membership, limited monthly AI credits and full Creator Studio access. Creator Plus can add more memberships for $4.99/month each.
After you upload a resource, the AI reads your file and suggests a title, description, keywords, subject and grades. It can also draft an editable lesson plan. You review, edit and accept everything before it’s published, and AI never publishes for you. Each generation uses AI credits; editing is free. Your files are never used to train AI models.
Yes. Both plans let you sell individual resources, offer a monthly and/or yearly membership, or both, from the same store.
Your earnings are paid to your PayPal account on the 10th of every month and are paid out once you have an available balance of a $25 minimum payout.
Every resource is classified as Creator-Made, AI-Assisted or AI-Generated. Fully AI-generated resources are accepted only for Video/Animation and Digital Book/eBook formats. Everything else needs substantial original work from you. Using AI only for your listing text doesn’t change the classification. Read the full policy.
There’s no long-term commitment. You accept the Creator Agreement when you set up your store. Basic has no subscription. Creator Plus renews monthly or yearly until you cancel in Plan & Billing; after cancelling, the lower commission lasts until the paid period ends.
