Your Expertise, Their Unfair Terms. Decode Your Online Course Revenue Share Agreement.
You create the content. The platform takes a cut. But what's *really* in your revenue share agreement? Hidden fees, vague payment triggers, and one-sided termination clauses could be costing you thousands. Legal Shell AI reads the fine print so you can negotiate with confidence.
The Platform's Contract is Stacked Against You
Standard revenue share agreements from major course platforms are complex, filled with legal jargon designed to protect the platform, not you. Most instructors sign without fully understanding the long-term financial impact.
- Hidden 'payment thresholds' that delay your earnings indefinitely.
- Vague definitions of 'gross revenue' that allow platforms to deduct fees before your share is calculated.
- One-sided termination clauses that lock you into unfavorable terms or wipe out your audience access.
- Automatic royalty audits that favor the platform's calculations.
- Exclusivity traps that prevent you from selling your course elsewhere.

The Instructor's Financial Reality
Instructors Who Took Back Control
"I thought my 50/50 split was standard. Legal Shell AI showed me the platform was deducting 'payment processing' and 'support' fees *before* the split. I used the report to renegotiate and now I earn 12% more per sale."
"The clause about 'platform ownership of derivative works' was buried in paragraph 47. This app flagged it as a major red flag. I walked away from that platform and found one with fairer IP terms."
"As a solo creator, I can't afford a $2,000 lawyer. For the price of a coffee, this AI gave me the confidence to ask my platform specific questions. They actually clarified a vague payment term!"
