Getting Started with Monetization

When you’re ready to launch your agent publicly, you’ll complete a quick approval process through Stripe (our payment processor) right within the AppyAI platform. Once approved, you can set your pricing and start accepting customers immediately.
Platform Fee: AppyAI takes a 10% fee on each transaction to cover platform costs and support.

Subscription Options

Monthly Pricing: Set your base monthly subscription rate in USD Annual Pricing (Optional): Offer an annual option with built-in savings for customers who commit longer-term Free Trials (Optional): Lower the barrier to entry with trial periods:
  • No free trial
  • 7, 14, or 30-day free trials
  • Customers get full access during trial, then automatically convert to paid subscription
Free trials are highly recommended since they let potential customers experience your agent’s value before committing to pay.

Launch When You’re Ready

There’s no rush to monetize immediately. Many builders prefer to:
  1. Test thoroughly with friends, colleagues, or beta users
  2. Refine the agent based on feedback
  3. Set competitive pricing after understanding the value you provide
  4. Launch publicly when you’re confident in the experience
Your agent can remain private and free while you perfect it, then switch to paid subscriptions whenever you’re ready to start generating revenue.
