Evaluating Demand โ€” Early Interest Welcome

Run Your Own Creator App

OtakuRoom Framework lets established creators and studios package their own white-label app on the OtakuRoom technology stack โ€” your brand, your users, your content.

You focus on your audience and your work. We provide the technology: distributed cache, AI tooling, and publishing pipeline. We are currently evaluating demand; if this sounds interesting, write to us.

What is OtakuRoom Framework?

Think of it as the technology stack behind OtakuRoom, packaged as a licensable framework. You publish your own app; we provide the engine.

๐ŸŽจ

White-label Branding

Your app ships with your name, your logo, your domain. The user experience is yours; OtakuRoom Framework is the engine under the hood.

  • Custom branding and theme
  • Your own app store presence
  • "Powered by OtakuRoom Framework" attribution in About
๐Ÿ”—

Instance Isolation

Each packaged app can run on an isolated IPFS cache network. Your users and content are not mixed with other apps' users and content.

  • Separate cache network per instance
  • Independent content discovery
  • Optional interconnection with opt-in
๐Ÿ’ณ

You Run Your Own Payments

You connect your own payment channels. Your users' payments never pass through us and are not held by us. We settle with you separately for framework fees only.

  • Your processor and KYC relationship, your responsibility
  • OtakuRoom Framework does not touch the money flow
  • We only invoice you for framework fees
๐Ÿ‘ฅ

Your Users Are Yours

Users register on your own server; accounts do not live under an OtakuRoom identity system. Subscriptions, follows, comments, and DMs all remain in a database you control โ€” we cannot read them and cannot take them with us.

  • Accounts live on your server
  • Social and subscription graph belongs to you
  • Framework operator has no read access
๐Ÿ”ง

Open-Source Server ยท Self-host or Managed

The user server is provided as open source. Deploy it on any cloud or your own hardware for full control of the data path โ€” or use our managed hosting, billed by usage, and skip the ops work. The choice stays with you.

  • Server source code open and commercial-friendly
  • Self-host on any cloud or on-prem
  • Or use our managed hosting (usage-based)

Creators and Studios Who Want Their Own Platform

This is not for casual publishers. It is for creators who are ready to own the full creator-audience relationship.

๐Ÿข

Studios & Teams

If you are a studio, circle, or publishing group with an established audience and want a dedicated app instead of being one creator among many, this is for you.

๐ŸŽฏ

Focused Niches

If your audience has a clear identity โ€” a specific genre, language community, or content style โ€” a dedicated app lets you tailor the experience without diluting it.

๐Ÿ› ๏ธ

Technical Comfort

You can run basic infrastructure (a cache server, domain, payment account). We provide the packaging tools and ongoing updates; you take care of operations.

โš–๏ธ

Lawful Operations

You are willing to run your app within the laws of your jurisdiction and the content rules of the framework. We do not license the framework for use that would be illegal where you operate.

What the P2P Cache Network Buys You

The distributed cache built into OtakuRoom Framework translates into two concrete benefits the moment you start using it.

๐Ÿ’ธ

Significantly Lower Bandwidth Cost

Popular content is cached and relayed between users instead of going out through your origin every time. In typical ACG workloads (heavy images, manga, video), a substantial share of all downloads is served from the distributed cache โ€” directly saving the CDN or egress cost you would otherwise pay.

๐Ÿ›ก๏ธ

More Resilient Delivery

Your origin is no longer the single path to your users. Even if a node becomes temporarily unreachable, users can still fetch published content from the cache network. This is especially valuable during promotions, hit releases, or regional network disruptions.

๐ŸŒ

Shared Global Node Network

Licensed apps can optionally plug into OtakuRoom's public cache nodes, or run entirely on their own isolated network. The more users come online, the faster and more resilient the network becomes โ€” a property traditional centralized CDNs cannot provide.

Four Clear Tiers

Public base fees, modest revenue share, and a negotiated path for partners that outgrow the standard tiers.

๐ŸŒฑ

Pilot

$99 / month
Up to 1,000 DAU ยท includes $2k / month of revenue

  • Overage royalty on revenue: 4%
  • Or activity overage: $0.002 / DAU / day
  • Whichever is higher applies
  • First year: revenue overage waived
  • For new studios or small circles piloting the platform
๐Ÿš€

Growth

$399 / month
Up to 5,000 DAU ยท includes $10k / month of revenue

  • Overage royalty on revenue: 3%
  • Or activity overage: $0.002 / DAU / day
  • Whichever is higher applies
  • First year: revenue overage waived
  • For mid-sized fan sites and commercial doujin circles
๐Ÿ”๏ธ

Scale

$999 / month
Up to 20,000 DAU ยท includes $50k / month of revenue

  • Overage royalty on revenue: 2.5%
  • Or activity overage: $0.0015 / DAU / day
  • Whichever is higher applies
  • First year: revenue overage waived
  • For established commercial studios
๐Ÿ›๏ธ

Enterprise

From $3,000 / month
Triggered above 20,000 DAU or $50k / month revenue

  • Base fee, royalty rate, and activity coefficient all negotiable
  • Custom SLA and dedicated technical support
  • Optional dedicated deployment or multi-instance license
  • For regional platforms and publishers

Revenue is self-reported; activity is measured anonymously by the official client telemetry. We take the higher of the two as the overage basis โ€” this keeps accounting simple and prevents the infrastructure from being consumed without sustainable compensation.
