From your first application to your first royalty check, in six steps. You never build an audience. You never touch marketing.
A short application: your role, your specialty, a writing sample. It is read by practitioners in your own field, and you hear back within two weeks.
Briefs arrive in your area of practice, shaped by what AI assistants are actually being asked. You write in your own name, on your own schedule. Human-written only: AI drafting is prohibited and every submission is checked.
Every accepted piece pays a fixed advance up front, before a single query runs. Your piece is edited, reviewed, and published into the corpus with your byline and credential attached.
Claude, ChatGPT, and enterprise chatbots connect over MCP and search the corpus live at answer time. No scraping, no stale copies. Licensed access only.
When your piece grounds an answer, the answer carries your byline. Each use is logged to your account, across every customer we sign.
Licensing revenue goes into a pool and is split by usage share. The more your work is used, the larger your slice. It keeps earning for as long as it keeps answering.
Advances are fixed per piece. The pool grows with every licensing customer, so the same piece earns more as the corpus is used more.
No. We aggregate the demand across every customer. You never own or manage a single subscriber.
You keep your authorship and byline. Firsthand holds the license that lets AI products use the work, which is what gets you paid.
No. AI-written or AI-assisted drafting is prohibited. Every submission is screened for machine generation and read by practitioners.
Your area of practice. Briefs are commissioned from real query demand, so your expertise goes where it is actually needed.
