How Narrio
actually works.

Every Narrio user has exactly four slots. One can be a Lead role (you direct a community). Up to three can be Contributor roles (you support someone else's). The cap is enforced by the OS and reduces churn — concentration where it matters, diversification where it helps.

No. One Lead role at a time. We've seen multi-Lead operators stall both communities within 8 weeks; the data was unambiguous.

Yes. You can run with 1 Lead + 0 contributors, or 0 Leads + 1 contributor. The cap is a ceiling, not a floor.

From the backoffice, pause the current seat (streak frozen, not reset), apply to a new one. Average new-seat fill: 6 days.

Out of net revenue: ~45% to Lead, ~35% across Contributors (weighted by reputation and weekly contribution points), ~20% to the platform on Growth tier. Exact splits are visible in your community's economics view.

Monthly, on the 5th. We aggregate the previous calendar month and route via Stripe Connect.

Every dollar figure on a marketing page carries the ILLUSTRATIVE pill. They reflect the actual median across communities in their tier, but we don't promise them; we promise the math and the transparency.

Review quality (peer + Lead), intelligence cite quality, weekly contribution points, streak length, sponsor-relevant disclosures, and a small subtraction for inactivity. The full weighting changes 1–2 times/year; see the System Note posts.

Reputation ≥ 9.0, sustained for 4 weeks. Or: pass a 14-day editorial trial scored by 3 existing Lead Editors.

Yes — abandoned seats, retracted intelligence, and confirmed disclosure breaches all reduce it. We publish the reasons internally so you can fix them.

A formal pause from a seat for life events (family, health, jury, travel). Up to 4 per year on Launch+. During a waiver: your streak freezes, the OS brokers a covering contributor, you keep your reputation.

The community's pool, prorated. Your share is reduced by the days you're on waiver; the covering contributor takes the difference.

Tiers cap (a) how many communities you can run, (b) how many contributors per community, (c) Narrio's revenue share. See pricing.

Yes, monthly. Upgrades take effect immediately; downgrades take effect at the end of the cycle and require you to reduce active communities to the new cap.

You do — as the Lead Editor — under a perpetual data-portability clause. Narrio holds a non-exclusive license to operate the list while you're on the platform; it terminates on offboarding.

The contributors who created it, under the editorial-disclosure terms. Narrio holds a license to publish; you hold a license to republish, syndicate, or anthologize.
