Qufro lets creators answer questions from subscribers/supporters, and get paid for doing it. How it works: (1) The creator sets an amount for answering questions. (2) The supporter asks a question. (3) When the creator responds, the supporter pays. Win-win!

Hello, Product Hunt! 👋 We're launching Qufro (https://www.qufro.com/) on Product Hunt today! Qufro allows creators (currently only YouTubers) to answer questions from fans and get paid for doing it. 🤝 We're solving the following problem: On the creator's side, monetisation is a constant struggle, so diversifying one's revenue stream is critical. 😔 On the subscribers'/supporters'/fans' side, interacting with favourite creators is important for them, and they don't mind paying for the opportunity (e.g., YouTube's live-stream 'Super Chat'). This is especially true for subscribers who follow educational YouTubers and have specific questions about their content. 😞 This is how it works: 1. The YouTuber signs up (for free) and sets an amount to be charged for answering questions. 2. The supporter signs up (for free) and asks questions. 3. If the YouTuber answers within 7 days, the supporter is charged. If the creator doesn't answer, the question expires, and the supporter is not charged. We've been running a closed beta for the past few months, and are now opening the product up for everyone. 🎉 Check it out, and let us know what you think! Thank you for your interest! 😊

@ena_gluhakovic Thank you for your comment! There are two incentives: The first one, of course, is the immediate monetary incentive. If the creator would like to get paid, a response needs to be provided within 7 days, and this is communicated in the UI. The second is that Qufro is about community-building and engaging with supporters, in addition to being a Q&A platform. If visitors to the creator's profile see many expired questions, they would be reluctant to ask a question in the first place. People who've been creators long enough are aware of this. But we do work with our creators and communicate these caveats to them if it appears that a question might expire without a response. Hope this answers your question!
