Most platform deals take a share of your revenue forever. Ours is capped, deferred, and buyable. Here is the whole thing in one page.

File 09-02 / Capped vs forever

Same venture, / two deals

One structure ends. The other one never does.

Some AI venture platforms use a publishing-deal model: a royalty on everything you earn, with no cap and no end date. Publishing-deal models are honest about one thing. The royalty never ends. We think a studio should get paid for the build, not own your future.

ScenarioA 15% forever royaltyA common publishing-deal structureQuokkacorn: 12%, capped and deferredA$250k or 36 months, whichever first

File 09-03 / Hostile questions

Ask us / the hard ones

The questions a sceptical founder should ask. Answered straight.

01

If Quokkacorn winds down next year, what happens to my venture?

Your domain, brand, and customer data are yours. Your venture code is contractually yours, and a buildable copy is provided on request today. Full data export works the same way: available on request, and we're making it self-serve. We're also putting in place a standing deposit: a buildable copy of your code plus a data export, held in storage you control, so the protection does not depend on us being around to act. We will not promise your venture stays online through a wind-down. The honest promise is that you hold a recent, usable copy and a clear path to control. Want a wind-down clause written into your MSA? Ask and we'll put it in writing.

02

What does this deal really cost me at A$1M ARR?

Three numbers, all on the table. The 12% rev share runs until the cap binds: A$250k or 36 months from launch, whichever comes first. At A$1M ARR the cap arrives fast, then the share drops to 0%. The 1.5% platform fee on Quokkacorn-processed revenue is separate, named, and sits outside the cap. Your Pro subscription is A$399 a month. After the cap you roll onto Alumni flat hosting, A$799 a month in the A$500k–A$2M ARR band, or you buy out at 24 times your last month's share.

03

Who actually controls the Stripe account my customers pay into?

Payments run through a Stripe Connect Express account. Quokkacorn is the platform of record on that account today. We will not dress that up. If you leave, we stop collecting our fees and remove our platform access. Moving saved cards and subscriptions onto a Stripe account you fully control depends on Stripe approving the change. We will request it and support it, but we cannot guarantee it, and you may need to re-onboard some customers.

04

What is your track record? Name founders who have done this.

We're early, and we won't pretend otherwise. There are ventures in residence, and MyBioBlueprint was built on this exact process. Building it is what led to Quokkacorn. We will not hand you borrowed logos or inflated metrics. If matched-stage references would change your decision, ask. We'll introduce you to founders who are genuinely real and tell you plainly what stage they're at. As ventures cross 12 months with recurring revenue, verifiable numbers get published.

05

What fees are you not telling me about?

Here is the full list. Your tier subscription: Builder A$149 a month, Pro A$399 a month. The 1.5% platform fee on Quokkacorn-processed revenue. The 12% rev share once you cross 5 paying customers and A$3k MRR. Hands-on Launchpad setup, quoted at A$1,500–A$3,000 before anything starts. Work beyond agreed scope is a change request, quoted before it begins. An approved sale through Verified Transfers carries a 7.5% broker fee. That is everything. No setup fee on self-serve, no exit penalty, no equity.

06

What uptime do you guarantee?

We would rather be straight than glossy. Formal per-tier uptime targets are being finalised, so we will not print a number here that we have not committed to in writing. Builds ship with tests and the platform runs on Google Cloud. Ask for the current commitment and we will give you the real answer, in writing, not a marketing one.

File 09-04 / The founder barFive levers, published

What makes a
Quokkacorn founder.

We do not select on pedigree. We select on position. These are the five levers we score, and they are the same five for everyone.

01

Customer access

You can get the first five conversations without ads.

02

Pain intensity

The problem is urgent, not merely annoying.

03

Existing spend

They already pay for a worse answer: labour, spreadsheets, consultants.

04

Founder edge

You are inside the niche, not researching it.

05

First workflow

One slice is narrow enough to ship and charge for in weeks.

Score yourself honestly on the Finder. It uses exactly these five levers.
