WELCOME TO
THE RAGE
You're not testing an app. You're founding a scene.
All the Rage is the marketplace for artists — every craft, every medium. Show your work, sell it protected, get hired, collaborate, and collect direct. And right now, it's yours before it's anyone's.
Hey — thank you for being here.
You're one of a handful of people I've personally invited in before the world gets this. That's not a small thing: the first artists on a platform set its culture forever. The work you post, the way you collaborate, the standards you hold — that becomes the DNA every later artist inherits.
So break things. Be loud about what's confusing. Post real work. And know that everything you build here now — your gallery, your ratings, your collaborations, your backers — is the head start nobody after you gets.
— let's make some noise 🤘
Tap anywhere. Every section expands only as deep as you want to go.
Five minutes, start to first post.
Pick your phone and follow the steps — install it before you read on; this tour is better with the app in your other hand.
🍎 iPhone & iPad — TestFlight
🤖 Android — Google Play
No link, or did it expire? Email support@rage.exchange — we'll send a fresh one same-day.
The feed, drops, auctions, and gigs are pre-populated with demo content so you have things to buy, bid on, and apply to from minute one. It's scaffolding, not real artists' work — and it gets retired as founding artists (you) fill the feed with the real thing. If a piece looks suspiciously stock, it probably is. Replace it with something better.
Read this one before anything else.
Payments run on Stripe's test mode. Buy, bid, tip, back projects, book artists — go wild. When anything asks for a card, use the magic test card:
Any future expiry · any CVC · any postal code. It always works, and it never charges anyone.
Payout setup (Stripe Connect) is also in test mode — walk the whole "connect a bank" flow with test data and watch escrow release.
🏆 FULL SWEEP. You're officially foundational. Email us "All The Rage" for eternal glory.
Every medium, protected money, royalties forever.
The Create tab is type-first: Physical art (paintings, sculpture — shipped to collectors), Music (singles, albums, music videos, licensing tiers), Film / Video (with rent/buy gating and trailers), Fashion (one-offs, made-to-order, vintage). Each type gets its own flow — framing presets, album track lists, film credits, garment details.
Fixed price, timed auctions, or price-on-request. When someone buys, their money sits in escrow until they confirm delivery — then it releases to you. No "I shipped it and they ghosted." Offers (cash or trades) ride the same rails.
Mint a tamper-proof certificate for any piece — it proves the original, tracks ownership history, and pays you a royalty (5–20%, your choice) every time it resells, forever. NFC tap-to-verify tags are coming for physical pieces.
Drops: limited timed editions with a claim window. Prints: sell reproductions through the print network. Lessons: sell tutorials and live classes. Creator Pass: your inner circle — perks, early drop access, member pricing.
Gallery, shop, live schedule, bio — plus "In my kit" (the products you swear by; fans always ask) and Book Me for artists who work on people: makeup, hair, lashes, nails, barbering, tattoo. Set your services (price + how long each takes), post your open times, and clients book a real date & time — a deposit holds the slot, escrowed and protected.
Artist-direct, escrow-protected, and the price is the price.
The price you see is the price you pay. No buyer's premium, no service fee, no "+15% at checkout." The platform's cut comes out of the artist's side, never bolted onto yours. You only ever add shipping when a physical piece needs to travel.
Every purchase goes artist-direct — no gallery middleman, no markup. Your money sits in escrow and only releases to the artist when you confirm the piece arrived. If it never shows, there's a real dispute process behind you.
Bid on timed auctions (you'll get outbid notifications — fight back), make cash offers on anything, or propose a straight trade: your piece for theirs. Watchlist anything you're stalking and get pinged on price moves.
The Collect tab tracks everything you own — certified pieces with full provenance, plus items you collected off-platform and catalog yourself. Highlight favorites, build Crates (public or private curated sets), and earn a tier as you go — Collector → Avid Collector → Patron. Tap-to-verify NFC on physical work is on the way.
Beyond buying: tip an artist (100% to them — tips are always fee-free), back a project to fund the next body of work, commission something custom (escrowed up front), or resell a piece you own with its provenance intact. Being early here means the artists remember who showed up first.
Assemble a crew, agree the split, ship together.
A short film, an album, a capsule collection, a mural. The wizard walks you through: cover + pitch, the crew you need (any role — type your own), and how collaborators are rewarded (revenue split / paid / credit — stated up front, because "is this paid?" should never need a DM).
Flip "Announce it" and your project goes public as a coming-soon: countdown, sneak peeks, updates, polls — fans follow the journey, and the milestone tracker (Concept → … → Shown) moves as you do.
Agree the revenue split with your crew inside the project room. When you wrap and attach the finished piece, the split applies to its sales automatically. Board-room video meetings and crew chat included.
Crowdfund any project: goal, deadline, reward tiers. Pledges are real (test-mode) charges; you cash out at the goal or deadline. Backers get notified when you post updates and when it funds — keep them close, they're your day-one fans.
One feed of every gig. Real pay, real distance, real history.
The Work hub pulls every open gig on the platform into one feed: casting calls, project crew calls, brand briefs — and not just film. A DJ for a rooftop bar, a muralist for a café, a nail artist for a pop-up. Each card is a real job post — pay stated, location, deadline, one-tap apply. Filter by craft, kind, or true km-radius Near me.
Save a search ("paid makeup gigs in Vancouver") and get pinged the moment matching work posts. Flip on Available for work with your status line ("Booked until July · taking bridal") to show up in searches and get auto-matched to crew calls.
Apply with a note, a reel link, a self-tape if asked — and attach up to 3 of your actual pieces. Reviewers see your work right on the application.
Flip to Hire mode: search talent across every craft, shortlist candidates, run a casting pipeline (submitted → shortlisted → cast), or hire a whole studio — production houses, fashion houses, agencies. Every hire path lands on escrow. Look for the ✓ gigs completed badge — verified work history earned on the platform, impossible to fake.
Your stage, your rules — and yes, you can sell from it.
Music jams, art demos, critique circles, film panels, table reads, runway shows, beauty demos (makeup/hair/nails start-to-finish), classes, AMAs, co-working. Public, unlisted (share the link), or private (you approve who's in).
Everyone watches by default. Any viewer can raise a hand; the host gives the mic — and takes it back. Your stage, your rules.
QVC for art: queue up lots, run live bidding while you stream, sell in the moment. Sessions can leave a recap gallery of what was made.
A challenge can go down live: a fashion walk-off, a rap battle, a beat battle, a paint-off. Contestants line up, the host runs the turns with a timer, and the crowd votes in real time — the winner is crowned in the room. Watch in Challenges for how to start one.
Rooms for your craft, challenges with real stakes, and any city's scene on demand.
Join or start communities — city scenes, craft guilds, your own crew. Threaded chat with photos, reactions and replies (delete your own, report the rest), pin your favorites, and get "Rooms for your craft" suggestions matched to what you make. Every new member auto-joins RAGE HQ — the founding-crew room — on day one.
Anyone can start a challenge; the community votes the winner (no curation, no pay-to-win). Run them as an entries board or a live showdown, in any medium — art, music, film, fashion. Prizes are whatever's worth winning: cash (escrow-guaranteed), products, coupons, studio time, classes, scholarships, trips, mentorship, a feature. Non-cash prizes carry a public delivery record, so promises get kept.
Challenge a fellow artist by name — they get a callout on the challenge and a DM. Entry stays open to everyone, but the rivalry is the fun. Great for "my school vs yours" energy.
String challenges into a circuit declared up front — a tournament bracket (qualifiers → semis → final) or a mini film festival (submissions → screening night → awards). Top finishers advance each round; the bracket shows the whole road.
The leaderboard crowns the most-raged creator each month, then resets — so the title is always up for grabs and newcomers have a real shot. Past winners live in the hall of fame.
List a workspace or find one near you — a kiln share, a vocal booth, a daylight photo studio, a workshop bench. Photo galleries, amenities, rate by the hour/day/month; message the host to book. Save the ones you like for later.
Run real-world events with RSVPs and city search — studio visits, gallery nights, shows. Find people, browse the leaderboard, manage group invites, all from the Community drawer.
The Near-you tab shows your city's creators, art, events, and print shops. Traveling? Tap the city name and explore any scene — scope Berlin's artists and events before you land, without changing your home city.
Simple deal: you keep ~95%, and money never buys reach.
No listing fees, no required subscriptions, no paywalls on your reach. We only earn when you do.
Work WITH artists, not around them — and never buy your way over them.
Switch to the Sponsor role and the Create menu becomes a brand toolkit:
Sponsors get a real brand storefront — not a creator page. List products with a custom banner, sell on-platform, or link out to your site. Your products can also become challenge prizes creators actually want to win.
Labeled AD cards in the feed, billed per qualified click from a prepaid budget (broad or craft-targeted). Watch views/clicks/CTR live, pause anytime, and unspent budget refunds. Organic ranking is untouchable — that's a promise to artists that protects your credibility too.
Clear and up front: 10% on a sponsored post or kit placement (escrowed, released when it's done) · a brand challenge is your prize + a flat 5% · ad cards are pay-per-click from your prepaid budget · posting a brief is free (it's a job board) · storefront sales on-platform are 5%. No retainer, no lock-in.
Confusion is data. Rants are welcome. Screenshots are gold.
Where to send it: email support@rage.exchange — bugs, ideas, rants, love letters. For content issues inside the app, the ⋯ menu on any piece, profile, or message has Report built in.
Every person you bring in lands on a feed where your work already lives. You're not competing with a million accounts — you're one of the founders of the wall. Follows, rages, and collectors you earn now are the foundation everyone else has to build toward later.
Invite the photographer you always wanted to shoot with, the MUA you trade favors with, the friend who buys your prints. Projects, bookings, splits, trades — every feature here gets better when your actual people are on it. You're not sharing an app; you're moving your scene somewhere it can earn.
Ratings, gigs-completed badges, certified provenance, backer counts — these only accrue on the platform, and you have a head start measured in months. The artists who treat the beta like opening night will look like institutions by the time the doors open.
Share any piece, profile, or project from the app — every share link opens a real page that pulls people in. That's the loop: your work travels, your scene grows, your numbers compound.
