    Getting started with AI content licensing doesn't have to be complicated. In this tutorial, we'll walk through the entire setup process on Opedd - from creating your account to receiving your first licensing payment.

    Step 1: Create Your Account

    Head to app.opedd.com/get-started and sign up with your email. You'll need to verify your email address before proceeding.

    Step 2: Connect Your Newsletter

    Opedd supports direct integrations with the most popular newsletter platforms:

    • Substack - CSV archive import
    • Ghost - API key integration
    • Beehiiv - API integration
    • Any platform - Custom API or sitemap import

    For Substack users, the fastest method is to export your archive as a CSV and upload it directly.

    Step 3: Set Your Pricing

    Opedd suggests a price based on your archive size and content category. You can adjust this at any time. We recommend starting with the suggested price and adjusting based on demand.

    Pricing Tiers

    You'll set two prices:

    1. Human licensing price - for republication, syndication, and human-readable use
    2. AI licensing price - for machine learning training and AI model fine-tuning

    Step 4: Verify Ownership

    To prevent unauthorized content registration, Opedd requires ownership verification. You can verify by:

    • Adding a DNS TXT record to your domain
    • Embedding a verification meta tag on your site
    • Connecting via your platform's API (automatic verification)

    Step 5: Start Earning

    Once verified, your content is listed in the Opedd marketplace. AI companies can discover and license your content through our API. You'll receive payments directly to your connected Stripe account.

    "I set up my entire archive on Opedd during a coffee break. Two weeks later, I had my first licensing payment."

    That's it - five steps, five minutes. Your newsletter archive is now working for you even when you're not writing.
