IndieStarlight.
A creator-direct storefront and curator network for books, music and film. The storefront is live at app.indiestarlight.com. Being formed as a Wyoming C-corporation headquartered in Lehi, Utah, with an exclusive licence in the creator-marketplace field from PatentInvest LLC.
What it is
Creators sell direct; curators bring buyers
Independent authors, musicians and filmmakers open a storefront, list their work and sell it directly. Curators and influencers bring buyers and earn a commission on what they sell. Every copy delivered carries an invisible watermark and a receipt, so a leaked file can be traced to its purchase. The site is at indiestarlight.com and the app at app.indiestarlight.com.

Fees
The fee schedule
Card processing passes through at 2.9% plus $0.30. The platform fee is 10% of gross and is the company’s only revenue line. An ecosystem marketing fund takes a further 10% of gross, is ring-fenced, and pays for the contests. Curators earn a commission of 25%, rising to a cap of 40%. A creator keeps roughly 71% to 75% of an organic sale, and 46% to 50% of a sale a curator brought in. The full schedule is at indiestarlight.com/features/payouts. Any change carries at least 30 days’ notice.
Intellectual property
The filings behind it
Two provisional applications sit behind IndieStarlight: a content-provenance and anti-piracy system, and a puzzle-game system with provably unique puzzles. PatentInvest licenses them exclusively to IndieStarlight in its field. Details are on the PatentInvest page.
Plan
The next eighteen months
- Form the company before the first contest prize is paid, and sign the field licence with PatentInvest.
- Publish Terms and Privacy pages and put the pilot agreement in the company’s name.
- Build the cash payout rail so creators can withdraw earnings.
- Run the Season One contests and open the Music and Film betas.
- Recruit the first cohort of independent authors and curators, then release the mobile app to testers.
