Dorian for Creators 2026: Keep 100% of Your First $10,000
Sep 04, 2026
The Dorian member rate in 2026: Creator Access Network members who join Dorian keep 100% of their first $10,000 in net revenue during their first 120 days on the platform, up to $5,000 more than the standard 50/50 split. Dorian is the no-code platform for turning a story, comic, or fictional world into a monetizable, story-driven game. The rate applies to new Dorian Creators who join through CAN.
What Dorian actually is
Dorian is a platform where storytellers turn their IP into interactive, story-driven games without writing code. If you have been building a fictional world, writing a novel, or drawing a comic, Dorian turns it into a playable, monetizable game in days. The platform is free to create on; Dorian earns from a 50/50 revenue split when your game makes money. Its audience skews female, with romance, fantasy, and sci-fi as the strongest genres, but the platform is open to anyone with a story, and Creators have already launched games earning into the millions and built full-time businesses there.
The interesting economics: interactive fiction monetizes far better per fan than most Creator content, because readers pay for choices, chapters, and characters they are invested in. If your audience already loves your story, a game is the highest-leverage format that story can take without a studio.
What the CAN member rate is worth
| Terms | You keep |
|---|---|
| Standard split | 50% of net revenue |
| CAN member rate, first 120 days | 100% of your first $10,000 in net revenue, up to $5,000 extra |
- ✓ A launch that earns $10,000 pays you $5,000 more than it would on the standard split
- ✓ CAN membership is $49 per year; this single benefit can return it a hundred times over
- ✓ The 120-day window rewards launching with a story ready, not joining and stalling
Dorian pros and cons: who it's for
It is a good fit if:
- ✓ You have story IP already: a novel, a comic, a world, an audience-favorite character
- ✓ Your work lives in romance, fantasy, or sci-fi, the platform's strongest genres
- ✓ You want a new revenue line from existing work without learning to code
Look elsewhere if:
- ✗ You do not have (or want to build) story-driven content, since the format is the product
- ✗ You already work with Dorian, since the rate is for new Creators joining through CAN

Frequently asked questions
How much does Dorian cost?
Nothing to create. Dorian's standard model is a 50/50 net revenue split when your game earns; the CAN member rate moves that to 100% yours on your first $10,000 of net revenue in your first 120 days.
What counts as net revenue?
All revenue from your games received by Dorian after app store or credit card fees and chargebacks, per Dorian's terms.
Do I need to know how to code or make games?
No. Dorian is no-code, built for writers and artists, and Dorian Academy walks you through building your first game.
Who qualifies for the 100% rate?
New Dorian Creators who join through the CAN membership. New accounts tied to existing Dorian Creators do not qualify, the rate may not apply to Creators on special partnership projects with Dorian, and Dorian retains the right to adjust member incentives in the future.
Does CAN make money when I earn on Dorian?
Yes, CAN earns a small share of the revenue its referred Creators generate in their first 12 months, at no cost to you and with no effect on your split.
