Alive gives you one place to run it.

WANTED TWICE.
THE EARLY SIGNAL
Two artists saw Aphid.
Both asked: “Can you do that for me?”
That reaction is the starting point for Alive: the artist is the business, and the best sales material is the work they put into the world.
02 / ALREADY ALIVEDon’t imagine it.
Don’t imagine it.
Step inside.
The strongest proof is the work itself. Every finished Alive world will appear here as a real, visitable site.
03 / DIFFERENCE BY DESIGNOne platform.
One platform.
Many realities.
These are illustrative starting points—not templates to choose from. Every Alive world takes its own visual language from the artist’s work, references and rhythm.

THE PRACTICAL DETAILSYour artist business.
Your artist business.
Your questions.
What you can do, what membership includes and how to get started.
Ask us about your artist business ↗What is Alive?
Alive is a connected studio for the business of being an artist. It brings your public brand, creative archive, work, bookings, merchandise, crowdfunding and audience relationships together. You remain the artist, the brand and the business.
Who is Alive for?
Alive is for independent musicians, DJs, comedians, actors, media personalities, radio hosts, television presenters, dancers, filmmakers, photographers, visual artists, writers and podcasters. We shape the public experience around each artist’s work and needs.
Is Alive a streaming service or a shared artist directory?
No. Your public world is built around your own identity and domain, with a connected workspace behind it. You can link to listening, ticketing and social services; Alive does not replace their distribution networks.
What can I do for my artist business?
Present your discography or portfolio, publish dates and ticket links, receive booking enquiries, share a press kit, sell merchandise, run crowdfunding campaigns and build direct audience relationships. Commerce is activated for each artist with the required payment setup; showing a ticket link is not native ticket inventory management.
What is Alive Vault?
Alive Vault is your private creative and commercial archive for images, video, audio, artwork, press and career history. Authorised artist administrators can organise approved materials and download original files. Public content is selected separately from the private archive.
How much does Alive cost?
Founding Ten membership is USD 19 per month after the first three months free. That founding rate continues while you remain continuously subscribed. The advertised standard price for artists joining after the founding cohort is USD 59 per month. An application does not create a subscription or take payment.
Is TrenVox included in Alive membership?
No. TrenVox is a separate, related-party marketing business, not part of Alive. An optional integration is planned to support artist marketing. Its services will be contracted and priced separately, and it is not currently included in membership.
Can I take my work and data with me?
Your files and data stay yours. Authorised artist administrators can download original files and export their data if they leave. The Alive-hosted public site is then shut down.
Can I help shape new features?
Yes. Tell us what gets in your way and what would help you build your business. We discuss ideas with artists and use that feedback to prioritise development. A request starts a conversation, rather than a promise that every feature will be built.
Where is Alive based and how do I get started?
Alive is based in Dubai, United Arab Emirates, and welcomes artists internationally. Apply for a Founding Ten place or use the contact form to discuss your work, membership, partnerships or support.
