For app builders
Could better context make your AI subscription more valuable?
Known proposes a user-approved context layer for participating AI apps. Start with a narrow purpose, request only the fields you need, and test whether the experience improves.
Synthetic demo. No live app integrations or available discounts yet.
Proposed economics
A proposed 10% allocation of list price: 6% to the consumer, 4% to Known.
The proposed arrangement is for your app to bill the customer and pay Known its share. No commercial terms or integrations are agreed yet.
| Item | Calculation | Amount |
|---|---|---|
| Subscription list price | P | $20.00 |
| Consumer discount | 0.06 × P | $1.20 |
| Consumer payment to app | 0.94 × P | $18.80 |
| Proposed payment from app to Known, before costs | 0.04 × P | $0.80 |
| App proceeds before other costs | 0.90 × P | $18.00 |
Illustrative, pre-tax economics. Not a current offer.
Proposed, pre-tax monthly example, not contracted pricing. Taxes, processing, refunds, chargebacks, and operating costs are excluded. Known's share is gross revenue before costs, not profit.
Integration boundary
What a future integration would need
A field request, a clear purpose, a consent decision, and a typed response containing only approved fields. The current demo simulates this exchange locally; no SDK or production API is available.
- Field requestOnly the fields the experience needs.
- Clear purposeOne named use, shown to the person.
- Consent decisionAn explicit allow or decline. Revocable.
- Typed responseApproved fields only, nothing else.

Validation
What we want to learn
Which context is useful? Which users would choose to share it? Can better onboarding or retention justify the discount, fees, support, and integration work?
