Creator Agreement

This Creator Agreement (the “Agreement”) is a binding contract between ToBeMentor AI and each creator who publishes an AI mentor. It applies in addition to the Terms of Service and Privacy Policy. Effective date: June 25, 2026.

By creating an AI mentor you confirm you are 18+, a US-eligible payee, and that you own or have written permission to use every piece of content connected to your mentor — including videos, audio, PDFs, scripts, notes, images, voice samples, brand names, logos, and social-media posts.

1. Identity and consent

You confirm that the AI mentor represents only you. You will not include any other real person's name, photo, voice, likeness, brand, or identity without that person's prior written permission. You will not allow another person to operate your account on your behalf without notifying ToBeMentor AI.

2. Content ownership and license to ToBeMentor AI

You retain ownership of your uploaded content (“Creator Content”). You grant ToBeMentor AI a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free, sublicensable license to host, store, reproduce, transmit, display, transcribe, embed, index, and process the Creator Content solely to (a) operate the Service, (b) train, fine-tune, and serve your AI mentor, and (c) generate derivative outputs to your subscribers. We will not use your Creator Content to train other creators' mentors or any general-purpose foundation model.

3. Name, image, likeness, and voice (publicity rights)

You grant ToBeMentor AI a limited license to use your name, photo, likeness, brand, and (if you opt in) voice clone solely to operate and promote your AI mentor on the Service. This license terminates when you delete your mentor, except for residual archival copies retained for legal compliance.

4. Approval and admin review

Before going public, you must personally review and approve your AI mentor — including bio, photo, voice, behavior, and sample answers. A ToBeMentor AI admin must then approve the mentor. We may reject or remove any mentor for safety, identity, copyright, or quality reasons.

5. Revenue share and payouts

Unless otherwise agreed in writing, ToBeMentor AI pays creators 30% of net subscription revenue attributable to their mentor (subscription revenue received minus payment-processing fees, refunds, chargebacks, sales tax, and fraud losses). ToBeMentor AI retains the remaining 70% to cover AI avatar rendering, video and live-session infrastructure, hosting, marketing, and payment processing. The revenue-share percentage is set by ToBeMentor AI and may be updated from time to time with prior notice. Payouts are released monthly: your full accumulated earnings for a completed billing month are paid out 30 days after that month closes, via our payout provider, once your balance exceeds US $50. You must complete tax onboarding (W-9 for US persons or W-8BEN/W-8BEN-E for non-US persons) before your first payout.

6. Taxes (1099-NEC / 1099-K)

You are an independent contractor, not an employee or partner of ToBeMentor AI. You are responsible for all federal, state, and local taxes on your earnings. We will issue IRS Form 1099-NEC and/or 1099-K as required by US law. You agree to provide accurate tax information and to update it promptly when it changes.

7. Disclaimers required on every mentor

ToBeMentor AI will display required disclaimers on each profile and inside chat making clear the AI is not you speaking live. You will not contradict these disclaimers or imply real-time live conversation.

8. Prohibited content and conduct

  • Medical diagnosis, prescriptions, or licensed therapy
  • Personalized legal, tax, financial, immigration, or investment advice presented as professional advice
  • Content that infringes copyright, trademark, or publicity rights
  • Sexual content, harassment, hate speech, violence, or illegal activity
  • Deceptive earnings claims, MLM recruitment, or unregistered securities offers

9. Indemnification

You will defend, indemnify, and hold harmless ToBeMentor AI from claims arising from your Creator Content, your breach of this Agreement, your use of third-party materials, or your tax obligations.

10. Suspension, removal, and termination

ToBeMentor AI may remove any mentor, suspend payouts pending investigation, or terminate the Agreement for breach, legal risk, or repeat policy violations. You may terminate at any time by deleting your mentor; earned, undisputed payouts will still be paid on the next scheduled cycle.

11. Confidentiality and platform data

Non-public platform data (subscriber identities, internal analytics, prompt systems) is confidential. You will not scrape, export, or share it.

12. Governing law and disputes

This Agreement is governed by Delaware law. Disputes are resolved by individual arbitration as described in the Terms of Service.
