UMFUG

The AI that pays the creatives

Every time you chat with Umfug and it references a real artist, writer, or musician, it mints a token in their name. 20% of monthly profit is split across everyone named that month.

Every prompt pays someone

How it works

Chat. Credit. Cash.

01

You chat

Ask Umfug anything — creative briefs, playlist ideas, film analysis. It answers like a well-read, slightly mischievous friend.

02

We spot the names

When a reply leans on a real creative — a composer, a novelist, a band — Umfug logs it. One token per creative per prompt.

03

They get paid

At the end of each month, 20% of profit is split across everyone who was named. Emerging artists get a heavier weight.

Most AI companies train on creative work without paying a penny.

Umfug is different. Every conversation is a tiny royalty cheque. No platform fees. No middlemen. Just chatting.

For creatives

Get verified, get paid.

Umfug tracks every creative reference in every chat. When your name comes up — a composer whose score is mentioned, a novelist whose style is invoked — you earn a share of the month’s pool. No platform fees taken from your cut.
