Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about building your AI venture with Quokkacorn Studio.
Getting Started
What exactly is a 'quokkacorn'?
A quokkacorn is a small, profitable AI venture—resilient, sustainable, and founder-owned. We believe thousands of small quokkacorns beat one mythic unicorn. Each one solves a real problem in a grounded niche, without the pressure to scale into billions or give up control.
Do I need technical skills or coding knowledge?
No. We handle the technical heavy lifting—AI agents, integrations, infrastructure, and deployment. You bring the niche expertise and customer knowledge; we bring the technology and distribution muscle.
How quickly can I launch?
We ship micro-offer pages with payment and scheduling live within 72 hours. The full AI agent workflows typically take 1-2 weeks to customize for your niche. You can start selling and validating immediately.
Pricing & Terms
What does the pricing model look like?
You pay a base retainer (A$500–A$2k/month) plus a sliding revenue share that starts at ~15% and steps down as your MRR grows. The revenue share is capped at A$900k total. After the cap, you convert to a platform plan (A$500–A$3k/month) with no revenue share. You own everything—domain, code, data, and customers.
Do you take equity in my venture?
No. We don't take equity. Our incentive is aligned through revenue share that caps and converts to a platform fee. You keep 100% ownership of your venture.
What happens after I hit the revenue share cap?
Once you've paid A$900k in cumulative revenue share, you convert to a platform plan (A$500–A$3k/month depending on usage). We continue to provide infrastructure, support, and optional playbook access, but no more revenue share. You're in full control.
Playbooks & Technology
What playbooks do you offer?
We have validation-tested playbooks for property maintenance AI (Proxiva), AI receptionist (FrontDesk WA), and clinical documentation (CareNotes AI). Each playbook includes agent workflows, landing pages, payment integration, and distribution templates. We also build custom playbooks for your specific niche.
Can I customize a playbook for my industry?
Absolutely. Our playbooks are starting templates—we customize them to your niche in the first week. If your industry needs something entirely new, we'll build it from scratch during the clarity sprint.
What AI technology do you use?
We use state-of-the-art LLMs (OpenAI, Anthropic) for chat and voice agents, with custom fine-tuning and prompt engineering for your niche. All infrastructure is hosted in Australia where possible, with fallback to secure global providers.
Ownership & Control
Do I own my customer data?
Yes. You own your domain, customer data, code repositories, and integrations. Everything is portable. If you ever want to leave Quokkacorn, you take everything with you.
Can I hire my own developers later?
Absolutely. You own the codebase, so you can hire developers to extend or modify it anytime. We're happy to provide documentation and onboarding support.
What if I want to sell my venture?
You can sell your venture at any time—you own it. If you sell before hitting the revenue share cap, the new owner would inherit the revenue share agreement. After the cap, you're on the platform plan and fully independent.
Cohorts & Waitlist
How do cohorts work?
We open cohorts every few weeks with a limited number of spots (typically 5-10 founders). This lets us provide high-touch support during the launch window. Waitlist members get first access when spots open.
What happens when I join the waitlist?
You'll get weekly updates on portfolio ventures, early access to beta playbooks, and priority onboarding when the next cohort opens. We'll also send you the behind-the-scenes data and teardowns from our AI ventures.
Can I start immediately or do I have to wait for a cohort?
We prioritize cohort-based onboarding for the best experience, but if you have an urgent opportunity, reach out to hey@quokkacorn.com and we'll see what we can do.
