Publish content. Stream live. Ticket events. Sell products. Build community. Share value.
PublicSh is the social commerce and entertainment ecosystem where creatives, patrons, communities, and brands create, participate, transact, and grow together.
A work published on PublicSh
One place to create
One place to create. Many ways to participate.
Your audience shouldn't have to leave your world to watch, attend, buy, support, connect, or take part. PublicSh brings content, live experiences, events, commerce, community, and participation together in one connected place.
What you can do
Your creativity. Your platform.
Publish music, video, art, stories, projects, products, ideas, and original work. Build a home for what you make instead of feeding someone else's timeline — every file fingerprinted and time-stamped once it's processed, so it is provably yours.
Create → Publish → Discover
Turn audiences into participants.
Go live for performances, conversations, launches, workshops, behind-the-scenes moments, and community sessions. Creators and patrons in the same room, wherever they are.
Broadcast → Engage → Participate
From discovery to attendance.
Create the show, put the date up, issue the tickets, and work the door — from intimate pop-ups and workshops to concerts, showcases, and festivals. PublicSh connects the conversation online to the room where it happens.
Paid tickets open when payments do. Today a place on the list is free, and the door scans it.
Discover → Ticket → Attend
Turn creativity into commerce.
Sell merchandise, limited drops, digital goods, licences, and creative services directly to your community. Creators sell, patrons discover, and what someone holds can be given on — commerce that belongs to the culture, not bolted onto it.
Card payments open when payments do. Today a licence can be granted free, points are spent on perks, and a merch table sells in person.
Create → Sell → Earn
Don't just collect followers. Build relationships.
Gather people around artists, interests, neighbourhoods, movements, events, and shared experiences — and give them more ways to take part than liking and following.
Connect → Engage → Belong
What makes PublicSh different
When the community grows, more people should benefit.
PublicSh is built around participation, not passive consumption. Creators, patrons, collaborators, promoters, communities, and partners contribute to what gets made — and share in what it earns, as agreed, to the cent.
Support → Participate → Share
- Every collaborator's share is agreed once and applied on every sale.
- People who back a work can hold a stake in it, on terms the maker sets.
- Every figure is something that actually happened, counted to the cent — never an estimate.
From audience to ecosystem
From audience to ecosystem
Most platforms separate the experience.
- —You publish in one place.
- —Stream somewhere else.
- —Sell through another service.
- —Ticket events on another platform.
- —Talk to your community somewhere else again.
PublicSh brings it together.
- Content
- Live
- Events
- Commerce
- Community
- Participation
- One identity.
- One community.
- One connected creative economy.
Share value, counted
Keep 85–100% of every dollar
Sharing value starts with what reaches the person who made the work. PublicSh keeps its take small because it takes part in many kinds of transaction inside a creator's world — a little of each, never a lot of any. Of every dollar a work earns, here is what typically gets there.
| Platform | Typical creator share |
|---|---|
| PublicSh | 85–100% |
| Bandcamp | ~82% |
| YouTube | ~45% |
| SoundCloud | ~15% |
| Spotify | ~12% |
Approximate figures from each platform's published rates and public reporting, 2025. On PublicSh the fee is set by your plan and locked onto each work: never more than 15% on a work or 10% on a shop, so your share never falls below 85%. Today every work publishes at 85% and a shop keeps 100%. Enterprise terms are agreed per deal.
How PublicSh grows with you
Growth is rewarded with a lower fee, and with optional products, services and support. We keep a small share of what moves on the platform, only when it moves.
- A lower fee as you grow
- 15% on Free, 10% on Indie, 5% on Pro — and Pro's step to zero is earned, not bought. A work keeps the rate it was published on.
- Your shop pays less than your releases
- 10% on Free, 5% on Indie, nothing on Pro — taken on what an item clears, never on what it cost you to make and post.
- Card processing, shown as its own line
- What the card network keeps is taken at the boundary and shown on every sale — never folded into a rate.
Who it's for
Made for the people who make culture, and the people who show up for it.
For creatives
Create more than followers.
Build an audience you can actually reach, gather, and earn from — on a platform that treats your work as yours.
- Publish your work
- Stream your experiences
- Ticket your events
- Sell directly
- Build your community
- Grow your value
PublicSh your music · your art · your story · your drop · your show
For patrons
Don't just consume culture. Take part in it.
Discover creators. Join communities. Attend events. Watch live. Buy directly. Support what matters to you — and be part of the value created around the people, ideas, and experiences you believe in.
Everyone on PublicSh is a patron. Creators and brands are patrons who also make, host, or sponsor.
Supporter · participant · attendee · buyer · member · collaborator · promoter
For communities
Somewhere to live, gather, and grow.
The online and real-world home for artists, creative collectives, venues, festivals, neighbourhoods, schools, organisations, brands, and cultural communities — where the conversation and the night out are the same place.
Publish · Communicate · Stream · Host · Ticket · Sell · Engage
For brands + partners
Join the culture instead of marketing around it.
Partner with creators and communities through sponsored work, live experiences, events, commerce, activations, drops, community programmes, and collaborations. Build relationships that outlast impressions.
Sponsorship · Live · Events · Commerce · Activations · Drops · Programmes
For hosts + venues
Run the night from one phone.
A door you scan, a list you hold, a night you can read afterwards. Free doors, guest lists, holds for friends and table space for sellers — with the sponsor's line on the ticket and the count from records.

How it works
One platform, two sides of the same night
Everything below is built and working today, and where a part of it is not, it says so. Pick the side you’re on.
Publish the work
Upload it and walk one guided flow. When you press publish, the work is findable and playable, and it sells or licenses on whatever terms you set on the way through.
It’s provably yours
The file is fingerprinted and time-stamped as soon as it is processed, and who owns which share is recorded alongside it. You can download the certificate any time.
Announce a show
Put the date up. The people who follow you hear about it, and so do the people watching your city for nights like yours.
Work the door
Admit people one at a time by entering the code on their ticket. Each admission is one person walking in — that is the only thing that ever becomes a number here.
Read it the next morning
Who turned up, how many had been to a night of yours before, and how many cities you have played. Counted from the door, never estimated.
The sleeve is generated from the record itself, so it never pretends to be a photograph of anything. The waveform is real — these are the peaks of the most recently published work on PublicSh. The title and the name are blank because they would be yours.
Who turned up
Counted from admissions at the door — every figure here is built from people who walked in, and none of it is estimated.
- Blank: fills in from admissions at the door
- people
- Blank: fills in from admissions at the door
- shows
- Blank: fills in from admissions at the door
- cities played
- Blank: fills in from admissions at the door
- came back
Real labels, waiting for real nights. Every number that belongs here is one person admitted on a real ticket, so the report fills in from the door and from nowhere else — there is no field in PublicSh to type one of these in. Until the first night, the real report shows its labels and holds its figures, and so does this page.
The PublicSh difference
Everything begins with publishing — but it doesn't end there.
- Traditional publishing
- distributes content.
- Social platforms
- distribute attention.
- Commerce platforms
- facilitate transactions.
- Ticketing platforms
- sell access.
- Community platforms
- host conversation.
PublicSh connects all of them.
- Publish
- Engage
- Experience
- Transact
- Participate
- Share value

The terms
The terms you join on are the terms you keep
PublicSh is going to keep changing. What you signed up under will not. People join in generations, and the terms in force in yours are written down the day you arrive — a generation that has been written down is never edited afterwards: not to take a bigger share, not to shrink an allowance, not quietly.
Locked the day you join
The money and the limits — the numbers your account runs on.
- Your share
- What reaches you out of every dollar your work earns.
- What it costs
- The price of the plan, and everything the price includes.
- Allowances
- How much you can store, stream and send before anything is charged on top.
- Quantities
- Every count and cap the plan sets.
This part is already true. A work you publish keeps the share it went out under, permanently: publish today, switch plan next year, and today’s release is still on today’s terms.
Not locked, on purpose
The product itself. It keeps getting built, and you get all of it.
- New features, as they land.
- Screens redesigned, and rebuilt when they need it.
- Fixes, speed, and the parts you never see.
- Everything built after you arrive — on the terms you already have.
How a generation works
Changing the terms means opening a new generation beside the old one. The old one stays exactly as it was, because somebody’s account is standing on it. Yours points at the generation you joined in, and it moves only if a person deliberately moves it, with a record of who moved it, when, and to what. Nothing shifts as a side effect of us editing something.
Later generations may set different terms. We are not saying they will be worse, and nothing here is written to hurry you — the only claim on this page is that once you are in a generation, yours does not change. The four things above are the fields a generation locks; where a plan is not yet priced, this is the rule its numbers will be set under, and the pricing page shows only rates somebody can actually join at.
PublicSh your world.
- Your music.
- Your stories.
- Your art.
- Your products.
- Your events.
- Your community.
- Your value.
Create it. PublicSh it. Share in what grows.
