Frequently asked questions
Everything about building, claiming, and going live.
What does it cost?
Nothing to start. Building, matching and claiming your creator is free, and there's no card at signup and no trial that quietly converts. She earns on Fanplace: subscriptions, DMs and drops paid directly to you under Fanplace's terms. We win when you earn, which is why building her costs nothing.
How much can I make?
It depends on the niche you pick, how consistently you post, and how well you convert followers into Fanplace subscribers. Some creators earn a lot, many earn a little, and nobody can promise you a number. What we can say: the resource hub walks you through the exact posting and funnel playbook step by step, and your creator can produce enough content to post daily from day one.
Will Instagram or TikTok ban an AI account?
They might. Every major platform has its own rules on AI-generated content and synthetic personas, most require disclosure in some form, and those rules change. We won't tell you it's risk-free, because it isn't. Practically: label AI content where the platform asks, keep monetization on Fanplace rather than off-platform links, and don't run your whole business on one account. The resource hub covers account safety in detail.
What content is allowed?
BuildAvatar's own studio stays safe-for-work: that's our Acceptable Use Policy, and it applies to every tool here. What you publish on Fanplace is governed by Fanplace's rules and the law where you live. You control how far your creator's content goes on the platforms you post to.
What do I actually own when I claim her?
A licence that's exclusive to your account for as long as your claim is active. While you hold her, nobody else can build with her face, and the content you generate is yours to publish and monetize. The underlying trained model stays with us, and the licence can be revoked if you break the Acceptable Use Policy. Exclusive to you isn't the same as owned outright, and we'd rather say that plainly.
How does claiming an avatar work?
When you build an avatar you're matched to one from our roster. Claiming reserves that specific avatar to you. No one else can claim her. You then create your account and complete Fanplace verification to finish setting her up.
Is my avatar exclusive to me?
Yes. A claimed avatar is one-to-one: she's bound to your profile and can't be claimed by anyone else while you hold her.
Why do I need to verify my ID on Fanplace?
Your avatar publishes on Fanplace, and Fanplace requires identity verification to keep the platform compliant and to make sure each avatar belongs to a real, verified owner. It's a one-time step that protects your account and your earnings.
What is the 72-hour window?
When you claim an avatar she's held for you for 72 hours while you finish verifying your Fanplace account. We'll email you reminders during that window. If verification isn't completed in time, the avatar is released back to the pool so someone else can claim her.
What unlocks after I'm approved?
Once your Fanplace account is approved, your full studio and the resource hub unlock: generation tools, the Edit-her looks, lessons, prompt packs, and the rest of the onboarding so you can start creating and publishing content.
