Vision

Solynth.net is an independent creator network producing original written, audio, video, and digital content with the assistance of modern AI tools while remaining under human editorial control.

The goal is to create a sustainable income stream through Patreon subscriptions, direct sales from the Solynth website, and future digital products.

Ownership and Financial Structure

The primary admin@solynth.net account is the organisation owner, team lead, and central administrative account.

Primary Responsibilities

  • Ownership of the Patreon organisation
  • Website administration
  • Financial management
  • Team management
  • Approval of major content releases
  • PayPal integration
  • Subscription management

Revenue Infrastructure

  • Patreon
  • PayPal
  • Monzo
  • Wise

This provides the central financial infrastructure for Solynth.

Team

Each contributor has their own Patreon account and joins the organisation as a Team Member. Team members can curate the site, publish written work, create audio and video podcasts, add shop items, sell subscriptions, post photographs, poetry, songs, quips, calendars, events, and other original material.

Rob

Team lead, chief designer, head of IT, editorial director, researcher, and overall creative and technical coordinator.

Oz

Creative contributor, curator, producer, collaborator, and participant in the broader Solynth publishing and media network.

John

Game-design lead and primary site curator, responsible for helping administer the site, organising published material, shaping interactive and game-related projects, and maintaining the quality and presentation of the Solynth catalogue.

Rob, Oz, and John form the core working group. The three meet together to discuss editorial direction, publishing plans, game concepts, site improvements, revenue ideas, and the practical work needed to keep Solynth moving forward.

ChatGPT supports the team as a creative and technical assistant for drafting, research, editing, planning, production, organisation, and development. Additional contributors may be added later. Each member contributes according to their skills while the organisation retains ownership and stewardship of the Solynth brand.
