You get paid. Here's how it works.
HeyLois never sends you a bill for connecting people. When you earn, Lois takes a small share and covers card processing. When you don't, you owe nothing.
Two ways to earn
Already have a client lined up? Run the engagement on HeyLois and Lois takes a 20% commission on whatever they pay you, whether that's a monthly retainer or per lead, with a $5 minimum on each monthly payment. The rest goes to your own Stripe account and on to your bank. Lois's fee covers card processing.
Sometimes a client comes to Lois looking for someone with your exact network. When Lois hands them off to you, Lois' commission is 25% instead of 20%, because Lois did the sourcing. You still keep the bigger slice.

What about the AI features?
Profile enrichment, smart search, and network analysis all use real compute. To keep the lights on without sending anyone a bill, Lois runs on a small credit system. Topping up is optional.
How credits work: Each AI action costs a fraction of a credit (for example, 0.1 credits to enrich a profile). You buy credit packs when you want them. Nothing charges automatically.
You'll always see the cost before an action runs, and your balance lives in the top right of the app.
The questions everyone asks
Wait, am I getting charged $1,100?
No. That number is what your client pays. Lois's commission comes out of that number; the rest lands in your account. Lois never bills you for retainer fees.
Do I pay anything before I start earning?
No. Signing up, building your network, and exploring your connections is free. AI credits are up to you. Spend on them only if and when you want to.
How do I actually get paid?
Through Stripe. When a client pays their retainer, your share is deposited directly into your linked bank account. Lois never holds your money.
I already have a client. Can I run the work through HeyLois?
Yes. You bring the client and run the engagement on HeyLois. Your client pays you through your own Stripe account. On each monthly payment of $25 or more, and on every lead, you keep 80% and Lois takes 20%. On a monthly payment under $25, Lois takes $5 and you keep the rest. Lois's fee covers card processing.
Is there a minimum?
Lois's fee is at least $5 on each monthly retainer payment. Per-lead prices start at $5, and Lois takes its 20% of each lead with no separate minimum. Card processing is included in Lois's fee.
Is there a contract or commitment?
No long-term lock-in. You can pause or stop running engagements through HeyLois whenever you like.
No credit card required. Lois only takes a share when you earn.
