How Yield works

A managed marketplace built around three guarantees: vetted supply, performance-only payouts, and money that's safe on both sides.

1

Build the Context Core

Businesses set the problem, the magic moment, and an objective truth — editorial context, not a rigid script.

2

Assemble the wave

Match with 10–20 gated-verified creators by niche and platform for a single synchronized Blitz.

3

Fund the bounty pool

The Blitz price is captured into Stripe Connect. Yield keeps 20%; 80% locks into the creator pool.

4

The wave goes live

Every creator posts their own unscripted take at once, submits the live link, and the topic starts trending.

5

Track, pay & refund

Views are scraped for 14 days. The pool splits by performance — and any unearned capital is refunded.

The Dual-Guardrail Engine

Paid on performance, protected from both sides

Proportional share

The 80% creator pool splits by the share of total views each creator generates. Bigger reach, bigger cut.

The 30% individual ceiling

No single creator can earn more than 30% of the pool. Excess views spill over and redistribute to the rest of the wave — no monopoly power-laws.

The maximum CPM cap

Payouts are hard-capped by a maximum allowable CPM, blocking Sybil farming and protecting business ROI. Unearned capital is refunded.

Where every dollar goes

Bounty pool & fees

Aligned incentives, by design

The pool guarantees creators get paid for real performance. The flat fee and pooled accounting make bypassing the platform pointless.

The bounty pool pipeline

  • • Blitz price captured to Stripe Connect and locked.
  • • The wave publishes and submits live links.
  • • Background scraper counts real views for 14 days.
  • • Pool splits by performance — unearned capital refunded.

One flat fee, no leakage

Yield manages the multi-party tracking, tax compliance, and synchronized payouts — so taking a wave off-platform is operationally impossible.
