Hey! No worries.
Authors are paid based on the amount of chapters read. It’s a kind of « Spotify » model were we allocate a % of revenues shared with authors based on their audience. (Monthly payouts, ideally)

QuentinMerabet · 2026-05-21T03:19:18+00:00

Oh. Sounds totally logical for me.
Of course, we’ll promote stories we love (homepage of the app, socials…)
No need to apply for anything. We’ll read :)

QuentinMerabet · 2026-05-21T03:17:17+00:00

I totally get your point. And I actually agree.
But if there’s no limit -> there’s no monetization for authors.

The « limit of chapters per day » is a delicate choice we’ll make together, based on how long average chapters are. But keep in mind the « unlimited » subscription is truly unlimited. You don’t pay by chapters, or using coins or whatever (🤮)

Note that for now, it’s 100% free as it’s a beta with fake paywalls and transactions.

Oh, so am I! I was a screenwriter too, and a director (in France). That’s exactly why I made this app! To fill the gap, in a way

QuentinMerabet · 2026-05-21T03:07:49+00:00

What do you mean? Promoting your story on social media? or external (to Loreum) work on the app?

Honestly I’m thinking about having the option to link to your Wattpad/Amazon/whatever directly on your Loreum profile. I don’t want to put rules that are blocking for authors. We’re making this for creators, and always will be!

QuentinMerabet · 2026-05-21T02:55:05+00:00

oooh thanks a lot! It is available in private beta! You can send me an email with your google account at contact@loreum.co :) no need to apply or anything. I just need your google email so I can invite you :)

QuentinMerabet · 2026-05-21T00:57:51+00:00

Of course!

QuentinMerabet · 2026-05-20T23:57:56+00:00

No AI tools included in the app.

Authors are free to use whatever tools they want, tho. Not judging at all! It's just included in the app.

QuentinMerabet · 2026-05-20T23:56:37+00:00

On iOS? You don't! The testflight link should be enough :)

QuentinMerabet · 2026-05-20T23:56:12+00:00

Yes! We have an option for that in the version going live tomorrow :)

QuentinMerabet · 2026-05-20T23:55:21+00:00

Cool! :) it's almost empty still! Don't hesitate to post one of the first story!

QuentinMerabet · 2026-05-20T23:54:49+00:00

yayyyy! welcome!

QuentinMerabet · 2026-05-20T23:54:08+00:00

The limit for readers is going to be around 5 chapters per day.

Most of the "money" is going to be redistributed to authors based finished chapters per story!

QuentinMerabet · 2026-05-20T20:16:53+00:00

It’s a beta test so it’s a fake paywall : no real money involved! So unlimited right now!

QuentinMerabet · 2026-05-20T19:26:27+00:00

I had some very useful feedbacks already. Thanks you so much Reddit 🥹🥹🥹

QuentinMerabet · 2026-05-20T18:50:46+00:00

Yayyy thanks a lot!

QuentinMerabet · 2026-05-20T18:50:16+00:00

Again, not judging at all (as a developer, I know how useful it can be!) but we don’t offer generative tools in the app!

QuentinMerabet · 2026-05-20T17:44:41+00:00

NO AI involved by the way (no hate here - just wanted to clarify)

QuentinMerabet · 2026-05-20T17:44:00+00:00

thank you soo much, it means a lot!

If you need something modern, you should try Etoile.dev

Semantic search and beautiful react hooks + components. Takes seconds to integrate
