Creator economics

You own the skill. You set the price. You keep 90%.

Founding creators keep 90% of every sale for life — not for the first month, not for the first product. Every approved skill you publish on Techne Skills. Once the first 100 spots close, the 90% door closes with them.

Your skill is yours

Listing grants us a non-exclusive licence to host and deliver your skill. You can pull it down anytime — existing buyers keep their copy, no new sales happen.

Every download is traceable

Downloads are tied to the buyer and the device that initiated it. If your skill appears somewhere it shouldn’t, we know who put it there.

We handle the takedowns

Find your skill being redistributed? Email us. We commit to investigating within 5 business days and will issue takedown notices on your behalf.

Why join now

The creators who arrive early get remembered first.

Every marketplace has a first group of creators who define the category. They are the names buyers see first, the profiles linked in launch content, and the examples other creators learn from.

Techne Skills is still small enough for early creators to stand out. That will not be true forever.

Who this is for

You probably already have something worth packaging.

If you have a useful workflow, script pack, template, checklist, reference set or agent instruction file — you have a skill. You do not need to be a developer. You need to have found a better way to do something.

Developers and engineers

Code review workflows, migration helpers, testing checklists, security guides, API documentation systems and refactor playbooks.

Researchers and analysts

Market research frameworks, due diligence templates, competitor analysis systems, report structures and data synthesis workflows.

Consultants and freelancers

Client onboarding workflows, deliverable templates, scoping checklists, proposal frameworks and repeatable engagement processes.

Internal teams

Ops playbooks, hiring scorecards, SOP builders, customer support workflows and any internal process worth packaging for wider use.

Marketers and content creators

Brand voice systems, content repurposing workflows, campaign planning templates, SEO brief generators and ad review frameworks.

Finance and legal professionals

Budget review workflows, contract analysis checklists, compliance guides, invoice triage agents and financial model review systems.

What we're looking for

Six categories of skills we want to see in the catalog at launch.

Coding and engineering

Code review assistants, migration helpers, testing workflows, refactor guides, API documentation helpers and security review checklists.

Research and analysis

Market research workflows, competitor analysis systems, due diligence templates, report structures and source review methods.

Marketing and content

Brand voice systems, campaign planning workflows, content repurposing skills, SEO brief generators and ad review frameworks.

Operations and admin

SOP builders, customer support playbooks, hiring scorecards, onboarding workflows and internal documentation assistants.

Finance and legal

Budget review workflows, contract analysis checklists, compliance guides and financial model review systems.

Design and product

Design system instructions, UX audit workflows, product requirement templates and roadmap prioritisation frameworks.

The process

Four steps from application to first sale.

01

Package your workflow

Take the process you've already built — workflow, script, template, checklist or instruction file — and structure it as a skill. We give you a clear format and direct feedback.

02

Apply in 10 minutes

Fill out a short application. Tell us what your skill does, who it's for and what it costs. You do not need a finished product — a working prototype is enough.

03

Reviewed within 48 hours

We review every application personally and respond within 48 hours. If your skill has potential, we'll tell you what would make it stronger.

04

Publish and get paid

Once approved, your skill is live. You set the price. Buyers install it. You get paid 90% of every sale — directly, with no middlemen.

The roadmap

From private beta to public launch.

Founding creators get on board before stage 04. After Product Hunt, the 90% door closes for good.

Why now

Agents are starting to read skills the way browsers read web pages — automatically, on demand, from anywhere. The protocols are days old. The catalog of good skills is small. The first hundred creators in this market are the ones whose names get associated with the category. There isn't a second window for that.
