Skyzai Marketplace

Pay for the work you use.

The Skyzai App Store is designed around usage and a visible publisher premium. Every app would also offer an own-API mode with zero app fee, in exchange for advertising and information sharing under terms still to be defined.

An app’s proposed business model
  1. A publisher buys API services

    Skyzai supplies eligible models or connected capabilities.

  2. The app does useful work

    Usage is measured against an accepted cost basis.

  3. The user chooses an access mode

    Metered use plus a known premium, or own API with zero app fee.

  4. The exchange is visible

    Show money, provider costs, advertising and data terms separately.

Two ways to use every app

All proposed store apps integrate with Skyzai’s API. The publisher buys business services and delivers an application to consumers. The store direction requires two working access modes, rather than a nominal “free” button that cannot run the app.

Metered API + app premium

The consumer pays the app’s attributable Skyzai API cost for their operation plus its known publisher premium. There is no fixed app subscription in this direction.

The rate and eligible cost base are visible before use; the bill itemizes both afterwards. A publisher premium pays the app, before its own hosting, development, support and other expenses.

Your own API + zero app fee

The user brings API access they are entitled to use. The app usage fee is zero. The underlying provider can still charge for inference or other use.

Advertising and the owner’s “total information sharing” direction are the proposed nonmonetary exchange. This requires defined terms before activation. The scope of supported own-API providers remains to be selected.

No duplicate inference charge should be disguised as an app fee.

Paid-mode data and advertising terms are also undecided. “Paid” alone does not establish an ad-free or private mode. Each mode needs a clear comparison and an exit path.

Information sharing needs exact terms

“Total information sharing” records the owner’s ambition for the exchange. It is not yet a field-level permission contract. Access to an app cannot be treated as ambient permission to read accounts, devices, organisational data, private Cortex memory or other people’s information.

Before own-API sharing could operate
Record or decisionWhat it needs to say
InformationExact categories and fields, including whether prompts, outputs, uploads, activity or profile records are in scope. None is authorized for collection by this list.
Recipients and purposesWho receives each field; personalization, advertising, analytics, onward sharing and model training are separate decisions.
Retention and withdrawalRetention period, revocation, deletion, export and the effect on access. Withdrawing must not silently start paid usage.
Third-party informationA user cannot establish everyone else’s permission to disclose their organisational, personal or confidential records.
CredentialsAPI keys, passwords and secrets stay outside advertising, analytics and information-sharing payloads. Credential scope and revocation remain separate.

What an app listing must disclose

Proposed publisher admission
Record or decisionWhat it needs to say
Publisher and purposeA named publisher, support contact, intended work and exact Skyzai dependencies.
Both access modesSupported credentials and functional paid/own-API paths; a placeholder does not qualify.
Price and spending controlsKnown premium, eligible B2B cost base, accepted price version and estimate or maximum charge.
Failure and remedyRetry, failed-run, cancellation, refund and billing-dispute treatment.
Mode-specific data termsAdvertising, sharing, recipients, consent choices and withdrawal.
Menexus XaaSAn exact qualifying service offer for this app and sale context, with support, continuity, remedy and exit responsibilities.

Publisher admission, model/provider eligibility and XaaS qualification are separate checks. A technically reachable app does not establish available service capacity or accepted consumer terms.

apps.skyzai.com is the intended App Store address. This website documents the design; it does not claim a live store at that address.

The subscription-replacement hypothesis

The owner’s thesis is that software can move from fixed subscriptions to API usage with a known application premium, while commerce and advertising support wider access. This is a hypothesis to test, not a demonstrated end of SaaS.

A percentage premium creates its own tradeoff: falling API costs also reduce publisher revenue per operation, while avoidable retries can increase the cost base. Measure useful outcomes, failed-run costs, support, retention and contribution before treating the model as efficient.

Nudge could fund some free services through retained product sales. That is a separate seller-funded campaign allocation, not proof that every app or non-buying user is already funded. Store premiums, API supply costs, advertising proceeds and affiliate allocations must not be counted twice.
