A registry for teams that work for a share.
>commit_ is for small teams building a game or an app for a cut of future revenue instead of a salary. It records who joined, on what terms, and what they put in, so the split still holds when the first payout lands.
Why
Most rev-share deals live in a Discord call and someone's memory. That works until money shows up. Then someone "remembers it differently", someone who left after a month still holds a full share, or the person holding the store account quietly recalculates.
A full company with an operating agreement is overkill for a three-month project. >commit_ sits in between.
How the registry works
- Contribution points, not percentages. Your share is your points divided by everyone's points. A new member adds points to the pool, so nobody has to renegotiate whose percent gets cut.
- Vesting over time and milestones. A base rate for time on the project, plus bonus points for milestones agreed up front that anyone can check: a store release, N installs.
- A cliff at the start. The first few weeks vest nothing. Leave before the cliff and you leave with zero. Stay past it and those weeks count.
- Append-only. Every agreement and every change is a new, timestamped entry. Nothing is edited or deleted. A new split is a new version that the whole team signs.
- Revenue from the source. Revenue is read from App Store Connect, Google Play Console or RevenueCat, net of the store fee, not typed in by whoever holds the account.
Who publishes, who holds the money
Either way works. Publish on your own store accounts: the money lands with you, and >commit_ shows exactly who is owed what and generates the payout instruction. You can no longer misstate what anyone is owed, and everyone can see it.
Or let >commit_ publish it: we put the game or app out under our name, collect the store revenue and pay each person their share straight from the registry. It works like a publisher on the money flow, except every number is visible to the whole team. Already in the store? Moving it over is an option too.
