thaypley is built by creators, for creators — and every line of code traces back to one promise: the artist always gets paid. This covenant is that promise, written in plain language, so (you) know exactly what (you)r are walking into when (you) move in.
Every subscription pool is split 90% to the artist pool, 10% to the platform — at the source, before anything else happens. Labels can only take from a creator's 90%, never from the platform's 10%, and a label can never intercept artist funds directly. Ad revenue is permanently retired — thaypley is funded by (you)r, not by selling (you)r attention.
Every payout carries an immutable ledger hash — a cryptographic fingerprint of where every cent went. If (you) ever want to audit a payment, the math is right there, provable, end to end.
If (you) unlink from a label, the deadline is capped at 14 days. No extensions, no traps, no hostage clauses.
Feeds are chronological. There is no ranking algorithm, no boost button, no shadow suppression. What (you) post appears when (you) post it. Attention is not a product here.
Music — never. AI-generated music can never be uploaded to thaypley(tunes), through any path.
Video & photos — social posts only. AI-generated video and photos are allowed in (you)r personal posts, but never on thaypley(tv) — tv is original creator content only.
The gate. Uploading to tunes or tv asks (you) to confirm, out loud, that the work was not created with AI. It's a promise, recorded.
Text — free. AI-assisted words, astra(mined) readings, and conversation are welcome. Words are how (you) think; they were never the problem.
We do not sell (you)r data. We do not run ad targeting or build behavioral profiles. (you)r direct messages are encrypted before they leave (you)r device — the server only ever sees ciphertext. Export is on the roadmap: when (you) leave, (you) leave with everything (you) brought.
LGBTQIA+ inclusivity is foundational, not a feature. No gendered presets in any builder. No exclusionary copy, anywhere, ever. The (u)niverse is (you)rs — all of (you).
this covenant is written into the founding philosophy of the platform — AGENT.md, § Founding Philosophy. it is enforced in code, not just in spirit: search the platform's source for PHILOSOPHY_VIOLATION and (you) will find the guards that keep these promises.
