Pricing
Free until you earn.
One philosophy across four dimensions. Creators pay the 5% platform fee only above $500/mo. Developers start free. Agencies and enterprises pay for what they need. No seats, no setup fees, no surprise invoices.
Estimate your earnings
Five sliders. One honest number.
Substack's calculator is one slider — paid subscribers. Ours is five, because creators on aggregate.plus stack rails. Drag any slider to see what the same audience earns across all of them.

Estimates, not guarantees. Stripe processing fees apply on top of the platform fee on both platforms. Substack number reflects their published 10% creator fee on paid subscriptions only — they don't offer services, products, tips, or sponsor rails to compare against.

Plan prices are billed to you on the platform. The marketplace fee is what AGGREGATE+ takes on each sale (the generic 5% baseline category shown here) — see the full per-category breakdown below. Stripe's own card-processing fee is separate.
Honest fees
Start free. Pay as you earn.
The exact marketplace fee for every kind of sale, on every plan. Free creators pay 0% until they pass $500/mo, then the baseline below. A buyer's AI hiring you (agent-sourced, via the MCP / API) adds a flat +1%.
Fees shown are the platform's marketplace take. Stripe's card-processing fee is separate and set by Stripe. Enterprise take rates are negotiated per contract.
For developers
Build on aggregate.plus. Starting at zero.
Public REST API, TypeScript SDK, Node CLI, and an MCP server for buyer agents. Every tier is metered + capped — no surprise overage, ever. Upgrade or cancel via the Stripe Customer Portal anytime.
Every tier includes the OpenAPI spec, the TypeScript SDK, the CLI, the MCP server, and signed webhooks. Higher tiers raise the rate-limit cap and the monthly agent-run quota. Over-quota requests return HTTP 402 with an upgrade hint — never a silent bill.
For agencies
One org. Many creators. One bill.
Seat-based pricing for agencies managing rosters of creators is coming. Talk to us early if you run a creator agency or a podcasting network — we'll shape the rollout around your workflow.
For enterprise
Custom contracts. Dedicated rails.
Starts at $999/mo. Includes a 99.95% SLA, audit-log export, named support, and custom rate limits for agent-grade workloads. Talk to us about your numbers.

Questions, answered
The fine print, in plain English.
- How does the take rate work?
- USD card checkouts today include a 5% platform application fee (configurable per deployment — see Pricing) plus Stripe's processing fees. That fee funds payments plumbing, ledger, calendar hooks, and the sponsor marketplace surfaces — not ads on your audience. Our Terms also describe waiving the platform fee until monthly processed revenue crosses US$500 — that waiver is policy; automated fee tiers are still rolling out alongside billing automation.
- When do I get paid?
- Payouts run through Stripe Connect Express on Stripe's standard timing for your country and account status — typically a few business days after charges settle. USDC / on-chain tips are not live yet; use USD card flows today.
- Can I bring my existing audience?
- Export subscribers from your current tool as CSV and import the rows you are allowed to move. Native one-click migrations from Substack, Beehiiv, and similar providers are on the roadmap — we do not claim those importers are live yet.
- Do I own my content?
- You do — outright. Your posts, your subscriber list, and your full revenue history are exportable any day, in open formats. Lock-in is not a business model.
- Does it work outside the US?
- Stripe Connect is available in many countries; exact payout and tax treatment depends on Stripe's coverage for your region and your account type. Check Stripe's documentation for the latest country list — we ride their rails.
- Can I set my own domain?
- Not yet on the public money page — today you ship on
aggregate.plus/@yourhandle. Bring-your-own domain is planned; subscribe to release notes or the Terms for when it lands. - What is included in the developer API tiers?
- Every tier — Free, Starter, Growth, Enterprise — includes the OpenAPI spec, TypeScript SDK, Node CLI, MCP server, and signed webhooks. Higher tiers raise the request rate-limit cap and the monthly agent-run quota. Pricing is published on this page; the full tier limits live in /developers/docs.
- What happens when I hit a tier limit?
- Over-quota requests return HTTP 402 with a structured upgrade hint (the next tier, its price, and the limit you crossed). No silent overage billing — you choose when to upgrade. Once you do, the new tier applies to every API key on your account.
- How do agency contracts and enterprise pricing work?
- Enterprise starts at $999/mo and is custom-priced based on your monthly call volume, agent-run requirements, and audit/SLA needs. Agency seat-based pricing is coming — submit early-access at /developers/enterprise and we'll shape it around your workflow.
