How a round runs

Open it. Let them fight. Close it.

  1. 01

    Share one link

    shoutorbit.com/yourname goes in the bio and stays there. Every round after this one lives at the same address.

  2. 02

    Open a round

    Give it a title, a deadline, and how many slots you will actually read. Top 3 or Top 5.

  3. 03

    Fans and sponsors bid

    150 characters, a handle, an amount. Anyone outbid gets told, and can come back higher.

  4. 04

    The clock locks the board

    The deadline is read off the server, not a browser. When it passes, the order is final and no raise lands.

  5. 05

    You approve, then you get paid

    Read the shortlist, keep what you will answer, and Stripe pays out. Everything you skip is released.

How the money works

Money that only moves when the work does.

Bids hold. They do not charge.

Every bid is an authorization. Cancelling one is free, so a bid you never read costs the fan nothing — not even a fee.

A rejected bid never holds funds.

Moderation runs before a bid reaches the board, not after the money moves. Nothing to refund because nothing was taken.

You review a shortlist, not a firehose.

An AI first pass flags what should not be read out loud. You see the finalists and the flags, and you make the call.

Stripe pays you, and Stripe decides.

Payouts go through your own Stripe Connect account. We mirror what Stripe says about it and never guess ahead of it.

Your next stream
already has a top bid.

Sign up, open a round before you go live, and read the board on air.
