Frequently Asked Questions
Getting Started
Do I need to know how to code?
No. If you can use ChatGPT, you can build with ARCOS One. The platform is designed for non-technical creators who want to monetize their expertise through AI.
What if I don't know what to build?
Use the AI Asset Vault. It contains pre-built intelligence asset templates you can customize and launch immediately. Pick a template that matches your expertise, personalize it, and start earning.
How long does it take to launch?
Most creators launch their first monetized GPT within 15 minutes of signing up. Connect Stripe, configure your access gate, set your price, and share your link.
Payments & Fees
How do I get paid?
Payments go directly to your bank account. There are no delayed payouts or holding periods. You earn, you get paid.
What are the actual fees?
Builder ($97/mo), Operator ($297/mo), Branded Partner ($497/mo), Partner ($997/mo). A flat 5% platform fee on every transaction, the same on every plan. Annual billing saves 20%. Standard payment processing fees also apply per transaction. Everything is transparent in your dashboard. No hidden fees.
Can I change my plan?
Yes. Upgrade or downgrade at any time. Changes take effect immediately. No lock-in contracts.
Platform & Technology
What if AI platforms change?
ARCOS One builds monetization infrastructure, not just for GPTs. The access control, payment processing, and revenue intelligence systems work regardless of which AI platform you use. The infrastructure survives platform evolution.
How is this different from other paywall tools?
Other tools monetize access to a single tool. ARCOS One provides complete monetization infrastructure: payments, access control, asset ecosystems, revenue intelligence. It's a different category entirely.
Is my data secure?
Yes. All payments are processed through Stripe (PCI-DSS compliant). Your data is encrypted at rest and in transit. We never access your Stripe earnings directly.
Scaling
What if I outgrow this platform?
The Operator tier ($297/month) and the tiers above it are described on the pricing page. ARCOS One is built to scale with you from first dollar to enterprise revenue.
