Every course is priced at the equivalent of one US dollar per hour of video (charged in USD; shown in your local currency), and a bursary covers the full cost for anyone who needs it. The platform is run by <strong>ArtaQuest Foundation<\/strong>, a Canadian federal not-for-profit corporation (<a href=\"https:\/\/ised-isde.canada.ca\/cc\/lgcy\/fdrlCrpDtls.html?corpId=17948328&amp;locale=en_CA\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">#1794832-8 &mdash; verify on Corporations Canada<\/a>). No investor, manager, or staff member profits from learner fees.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The creator ladder<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We don&#8217;t gate on credentials or pedigree. Promotion is automatic and rests on one thing: the total coins you have earned. The five tiers run from Novice to <strong>Grandmaster<\/strong>, and each step up moves your revenue share closer to the full 100% &mdash; from 38% at Novice to 99% at Grandmaster. Each tier doubles the coin bar of the one below it &mdash; 10,000, 20,000, 40,000, 80,000, 160,000 &mdash; so every step up is genuinely twice as steep. The top tier takes a lifetime to reach &mdash; it is the equivalent of a tenured chair, and ArtaQuest takes almost nothing from a Grandmaster instructor&#8217;s courses.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"ay-creator-ladder ay-creator-ladder--v2 \" data-ay-skip=\"0\"><div class=\"ay-creator-ladder__tiers\" role=\"list\"><div class=\"ay-creator-ladder__tier ay-creator-ladder__tier--student\" role=\"listitem\"><div class=\"ay-creator-ladder__tier-badge\">0<\/div><div class=\"ay-creator-ladder__tier-name\"><span>Student<\/span><\/div><div class=\"ay-creator-ladder__tier-cost\"><span>Free \u00b7 default<\/span><\/div><div class=\"ay-creator-ladder__tier-can\"><span>Watch every course, take attention quizzes, earn certificates, donate.

The <strong>Lecturer<\/strong> is the person on camera giving the lectures &mdash; the editorial face of the course. The <strong>Instructor<\/strong> is the person who built the course on ArtaQuest: uploaded the videos, wrote the attention quizzes, set up the certificate. The Instructor is the one who climbs the creator ladder and receives the coin rewards on every review, certificate earned, and quiz passed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A Lecturer doesn&#8217;t need to be on the platform. An Instructor is always an ArtaQuest member. The same person can be both.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Revenue share<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Every ArtaQuest course is priced at the equivalent of one US dollar per hour of video (charged in USD). Anyone who cannot pay can apply for a bursary that covers the full cost &mdash; no one is turned away for lack of funds. The percentage above is what stays with the instructor after card-processing costs (~3%) are taken off. At the Grandmaster tier the platform keeps just 1% &mdash; effectively the card-processing cost &mdash; so the instructor keeps the rest. Hosting and our small content team are funded by donations to ArtaQuest Foundation, not from the creator&#8217;s share.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How rewards flow back to instructors<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Coins land in the instructor&#8217;s wallet on every meaningful event:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Review left on your course<\/strong> &mdash; +50 coins, once per review.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Certificate earned on your course<\/strong> &mdash; +25 coins, once per student per course.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Quiz passed on your course<\/strong> &mdash; +1 coin, once per student per quiz.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Course published<\/strong> &mdash; 10 coins per hour of video, once per course.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Students get rewarded too &mdash; +50 coins on every review they leave, +10 on every quiz they pass, plus whatever the LMS point system pays for lessons + certificates.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Donating counts toward the threshold<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Every dollar you donate becomes 1 ArtaQuest coin in your wallet, on the same ledger as the learning points above. Donating is one path to the coin thresholds &mdash; not a shortcut around the rest. You still need to publish courses, your students still need to pass quizzes, and reviews still need to come in for the upper tiers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What we are not looking for<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Courses that mostly rehash Wikipedia or summarise material a learner could just watch directly. The Novice tier is for <em>turning real teaching into proper courses<\/em> &mdash; with attention quizzes, structured sections, and a certificate &mdash; not for re-uploading clips.<\/li>\n<li>Content that promotes a commercial product or service.<\/li>\n<li>Political content whose primary purpose is partisan advocacy. (Historical-political analysis is welcome; advocacy is not.)<\/li>\n<li>Pseudoscience presented under a scientific label. (Explicitly philosophical or spiritual content is welcome &mdash; we simply require honest labelling.)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Questions?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you have a course idea you are not yet sure fits, write to <a href=\"mailto:support@artaquest.org\">support@artaquest.org<\/a> with a one-paragraph summary.
