AI Business Builders Compared: Price and Fees
By Yuntao Zou, Founder, VentiMap@TaoMachina
VentiMap takes 0% of each sale, so no platform charges less, and its passes are one-time 30-day purchases from $20 with no subscription. It also gives your company a free start with no card, your own domain and your code in your GitHub repository, outreach email, Reddit ads and X posts built in, images matched to your design, a proactive Manager and a Work Map that shows every step the agents take.
I'm VentiMap's founder; every figure about other products comes from their own pages, read October 17, 2026. My own prices are on the pricing page.

Which AI business builders take a cut of your sales?
As of October 17, 2026, VentiMap takes 0% of each sale on orders placed since October 15, 2026, so no platform charges less. Buyers pay through Stripe, and you pay VentiMap only Credits for the work. The table sets the percentage each builder states side by side. Stripe's own card fee comes on top everywhere, and refunds and disputes still reduce a sale.
| Product | What it states | On $1,000 of sales |
|---|---|---|
| NanoCorp | 20% of every withdrawal | $200 if you withdraw all of it |
| Quokkacorn | 1.5% platform fee, plus 12% of net revenue after 5 paying customers and A$3k a month (capped) | A$15 on A$1,000, plus 12% of net revenue once the thresholds are met |
| Polsia | 3% of customer payments | $30 |
| Lovable, Paddle route | 5% + 50 cents per transaction | $50, plus 50 cents a transaction |
| Crevio | 5% Starter, 2.5% Pro, 1% Business | $50, $25 or $10 |
| Locus Founder | 1% per charge (its FAQ adds 5% of monthly revenue above $1,000) | $10 |
| Shopify, third-party gateway | 2% Basic, 1% Grow, 0.6% Advanced | $20, $10 or $6 |
| VentiMap | 0% of each sale | $0 |
| Emergent | "Takes no cut of your sales" | $0 |
| Durable | "Does not add additional fees" | $0 |
| Hostinger AI Builder | 0% transaction fees, per Hostinger | $0 |
| Lovable, Stripe route | No Lovable fee | $0 |
VentiMap's 0% comes with a pass from $20 for 30 days that never renews on its own, a free start, your own domain, your code pushed to GitHub, and outreach email, Reddit ads and X posts built in. I compare the builders that take a cut in more detail in my three-way post on Polsia, NanoCorp and VentiMap.
Which AI business builders renew automatically?
A VentiMap pass never renews: as of October 17, 2026, a pass lasts 30 days, is paid once through Stripe Checkout and ends on its own. Passes are Starter $20, Pro $50 and Max $100, and the Credits a pass includes stay for 30 more days after it ends. Polsia and NanoCorp renew automatically until you cancel, according to their Terms.
You can start without paying: the free start needs no card and gives you a researched report on your idea, a plan, a shareable company page with motion, a hero image and one post on X. My roundup of AI tools to start a business lists other free starts side by side.
Which AI builders let you use your own domain and keep your code?
As of October 17, 2026, VentiMap lets you use your own domain on a paid pass, and your product's code is pushed to your own GitHub repository after every publish, with no Credits charged. Under the Terms you own what VentiMap generates for you.
If you are choosing between an app builder and a business builder, I wrote a longer comparison of Lovable and VentiMap.
Which AI builders include marketing?
As of October 17, 2026, VentiMap sends outreach email in your company's name, with follow-ups, replies landing in the company inbox and an opt-out in every email. Outreach turns on when the company launches and sends within a daily limit, and you can switch it off. Reddit ads run on a paid pass at a daily amount you approve, where 80% of the charge buys ads and 20% is VentiMap's fee. Posts go to your company's own X account at X's list price, $0.015 for a post and $0.20 with a link, on a schedule you choose.
My explainer on app builders and business platforms covers how the two kinds of product differ.
Does an AI business builder make images that match my design?
Yes at VentiMap: as of October 17, 2026, company images are built from your report and your company's design board, its palette and style, so each one fits your site. You pick what an image is for: an ad, a social post, an email banner or your site's hero. It is charged at the image model's own cost with no markup, from $0.006 to $0.017 depending on what it is for. A free company gets one hero image, and the Manager tells you in the chat when a new image is ready.
Can I see what an AI business builder's agents are doing?
Yes at VentiMap: as of October 17, 2026, the plan is a Work Map that lays out every step the agents plan and take, in waves, with how the steps connect and where each one is: Planned, Working, Awaiting confirmation, Done or Re-checking. You can read it before anything runs, so the work is never a black box.
Open the company, a task, a workstream or a single step to see what leads into it and what follows. Each step has Edit, Inspect and Rerun. A change to the plan is a proposal that waits for your OK and is saved as a new version, with the earlier one kept. History lists every change to your site, with Revert to here to go back.
A proactive Manager follows the project and posts a line in your chat for each change: a new image, an X post, a task done. On a paid pass it also reviews your company every day, plans the next steps and runs the ones it can, such as an X post, a rewrite of your outreach letter or a price change inside your report's range. You can skip any step.
What does VentiMap cost?
As of October 17, 2026, a VentiMap pass costs $20, $50 or $100 for 30 days, with $20, $60 or $120 of Credits and 5, 10 or 20 active companies, and none of them renews on its own. The AI team's work is paid from Credits. VentiMap takes 0% of each sale; Stripe's card fee, refunds and disputes still apply.
Owners choose whether their company appears on the companies page, which lists companies running on VentiMap, each with its own live site.
The Revenue page lists the companies made on VentiMap, each with its live site.
Who should pick which AI business builder?
- If you want your whole company managed from the idea onward, with 0% on sales, a pass that never renews and marketing built in: VentiMap.
- If you want to write the code yourself in an editor: Replit or Bolt.
