Revenue Model
ConsortiumAI operates with a transparent, performance-aligned revenue model.
Current Revenue Streams
1. Performance Fees
Performance fees are applied only on realized yield:
- Fee charged when strategies generate profit
- No fees during inactivity — you only pay when you earn
- Aligned incentives: ConsortiumAI earns when you earn
Fair Fees
If your capital isn't generating yield, you're not paying fees. Simple.
2. Strategy Access Fees
Advanced strategies may be gated by usage tiers:
| Tier | Access |
|---|---|
| Basic | Core strategies |
| Pro | Advanced yield optimization |
| Enterprise | Full strategy suite |
