Want an immediate referral path? Explorers can separately join Astria’s existing affiliate program. It pays 20% of template-owner revenue after card-processing and GPU infrastructure costs, or 20% of the Photoshop plugin price. Attribution lasts 30 days; each qualifying purchase earns a one-time commission, not subscription revenue. This is separate from Pro brand-spend rev share.

Explorer is the first-project activation tier. Pro begins with a paying brand; Elite remains invite-only for partners building sustained books of business on Astria.
A small group of creators who've built real books of business on Astria. Elite isn't something you apply for — it's how we recognize the partners most invested in the program. If you're doing the work, we'll find you.
Talk to usYour work stays yours. Pro adds revenue.
Astria publishes the completed Explorer brief without taking ownership of your original creative work. Brand-spend rev share begins when you graduate to Pro.
Keep your creative identity
Astria provides the platform, support, and publishing surface. It does not replace your authorship or take ownership of the original collection or template you create.
A share of every eligible dollar
The $500 is an unlock threshold, not a deductible. Once a paying brand crosses it, 12% applies to that brand's full eligible spend from its first dollar, including the first $500, for 24 months measured from that first dollar. Earnings are never clawed back.
Pro payouts land in your Astria account — apply them toward platform usage, or withdraw by sending an invoice to payout@astria.ai.
Questions & answers
Explorer is for promising AI-fashion photographers, stylists, art directors, and visual creators with a strong point of view. You do not need an existing brand network. We evaluate your portfolio and the collection or reusable template you want to make.
Submit your portfolio and first-project idea. Highlight links, brand experience, and contacts are optional. We review applications within five business days.
You can earn up to $500 in Astria account credits: $50 after each month in which one qualifying Explorer collection, reusable template, or agreed creative drop is published on Astria, for up to 10 qualifying months. Your completed first brief counts as month one. A month without a qualifying publication earns no credit and does not roll over.
Complete the first-project brief agreed during onboarding and Astria publishes the collection or template under your Astria Creative Partner · Explorer identity. Social reposts, showcase placement, and editorial features receive a separate quality and fit review, so those additional placements are not guaranteed.
