FAQ

While You have questions, we have answers.

What is Artunio?

Artunio is an all in one digital space with various professional tools that allows users to gather, network, interact and collaborate both locally and globally. 
It will be accessible through a mobile app as well as web browser.

Who is Artunio for?

Artunio is created for artists, audiences and everyone working in the cultural and creative industry. 
The platform serves anyone ranging from performers, creators, managers to even patrons either as individuals or organizations.
If you love or work in the arts and culture, Artunio is for you.

On the left there is a list: Dancers, Photographers, Musicians, Video Creators, Visual Artists, Writers, Journalists, Game Creators, Teachers, Street Artists, Actors, Painters, Graphic Designers, Fashion Designers, Venues, Theatres, Galleries, Museums, Scenographers, Directors, Non-profits, Entertainers, Craftsmen and all other related careers.

Why should I care?

If you are active in the arts and cultural fields, but constantly find yourself in situations where.

    1. You and your content does not fit on social media anymore
    2. Your artistic expression is too restricted and overlooked on social media
    3. You are sick and tired of everchanging algorithms, trends and the overall environment on social media
    4. You would like to grow your audience but don’t know how and where to start
    5. You would like to have more work opportunities, grow your career, and build a reliable income source as an artist.

Artunio is here to change that, and THAT’S why you should care. 

Why is Artunio important ?

We created Artunio because the arts still do not possess a dedicated space for growth and community at scale, despite how many social media networks exist today.
Our mission is to help artists and people working with them to thrive and survive by building a sustainable career. 
In order to do that, we simply require our own ecosystem. 

Is Artunio a social network?

Yes and no. While it contains a social network, it differs fundamentally from popular social media such as Facebook, Instagram and TikTok in that it is exclusive to the arts and culture.
Along with specifically designed features, it functions as a hybrid ecosystem connecting a social network and a professional workspace. 

How is Artunio different from other platforms?

Firstly, Artunio is simply focused on artistic and creative content only.
Which means less irrelevant ads, clickbaits, pranks or politics. While more of concerts, artworks, and original performances.

Secondly, we are not just a social network.
Instead, we are an all in one solution for users to find work opportunities, build an audience, promote and manage events with many of our digital features. 

To learn more on features, check out these videos on our website.

Is Artunio already usable?

The beta version, Artunio Space, is live and gives everybody the opportunity to become part of the community (show it rather than say it → via chat, posts, blogs etc)

However, we still cannot fully launch until we finish all the other features and ensure that Artunio runs smoothly 24/7.

That is why we are launching a crowdfunding campaign on Indiegogo, where with your help, we can hire true professionals to turn this into a reality.

Is Artunio free?

Yes, the social network is and will always be FREE. 

However, a recurring subscription is required for use of the other special features as shown in the Artunio Bundle. 
To gain a 3 month bonus on your monthly or yearly subscription, reserve your perk on this page right now and standby for the launch of our Indiegogo campaign later in the near future.

What is the Artunio Bundle?

The Artunio Bundle gives bonus access to actual backers and wraps together all of the special features such as 
Artist Profile, Job Finder, Event Manager, Artunio Audience, Artunio Learning and Artunio Gallery in an affordable subscription plan.

Isn’t $25 too much?

This subscription bundle was created to simplify the crowdfunding campaign. 
After the campaign, we will create additional subscription tiers at lower pricing for those wishing to customize features according to their necessities 
We will also adjust the subscription plans according to the economic well-being of each country. 

For example, pricing will be significantly lower for users from developing or low income countries. 

Will there be ads?

Yes and no. We will provide users with the ability to run paid ads on the platform, which will only be seen by those on the free plan. 

Users subscribing to one or more of the special features from the Artunio Bundle will have the option to filter or completely disable ads.

Most importantly, only relevant and industry-related ads will be surfaced on the Artunio Space.

How to generate income through Artunio?

Through the Artunio Bundle, users can use different features to manage their work and create an audience. 
For example, while the Job Finder helps you search and apply for work opportunities, the Event Manager helps you organize events and sell tickets directly to customers. 

Also, Artunio Gallery makes promoting and selling artwork a convenience, while Artunio Audience and Artunio Learning allow users to set up exclusive memberships, build and sell educational courses or workshops both online and offline.

How is the 200,000 going to be used?

Ok, before your head explodes at $200,000, our prior experiences within the industry has shed light on the expenses of assembling skilled professionals who will deliver the best possible product in our projected time frame of 6 months. 
For example, a minimum of $200,000 will be distributed among salaries for the development team, legalities, data security and other basic operational costs. 

Special features and stretch goals?

The crowdfunding goal of $200 000 is set for the development of Artunio Space, Artist Profile and Job Finder. They will be created after a successful campaign.
All the other special features have their separate goals which are known as ‘stretch goals’ in the crowdfunding world. 
You can take a look HERE at the stretch goals for each special feature in the order they will be developed. Artunio Gallery as the first one, Artunio Learning second, Artunio Event Manager third and Artunio Audience as the fourth. 

Each special feature will take us between 2-3 extra months to develop and deliver on top of the 6 months needed for Artunio Space, Artists Profile and Job Finder…

When will we launch the crowdfunding campaign?

The campaign will be launched right after we hit the goal of 100,000 people reserving their perks on this page. You can see the progress of emails on the top of this website. We want the word to spread across the global artistic community before we officially launch. 

This way, we can be sure that Artunio gains all the necessary support for the campaign to be successful. 

Who are we?

Hi! My name is Timothy, and alongside a professional dancer, graphic designer, and web developers, we are a team of passionate individuals who share a burning desire to revolutionize the way art is produced, shared and valued!

How can I help?

In conjunction with the upcoming launch of our crowdfunding campaign on Indiegogo, here’s how you can help:

  1. Share the word of Artunio with your community online but also offline. With increased awareness, we can make a real difference better and faster.
  2. Reserve your perk now, follow us for updates and claim your perk when we finally launch. 
  3. If you have more questions or would like to become an Artunio Ambassador, contact us at artunioinfo@gmail.com.

Is Artunio a global project?

In the future, yes. A lot of creators don’t have the opportunity to use certain platforms outside their countries due to language or privacy concerns. We intend to provide Artunio in multiple languages so that professional opportunities can be made accessible to artists from all corners of the world.

What types of opportunities will Artunio have? 

For example: You could find remote jobs for session musicians, short term projects like performing and teaching at a festival or workshop, and even long term employment in state theaters, cultural nonprofits or entertainment agencies. There will also be regular castings and open calls for commercials, movies, performances, residencies, educational programmes etc.

What is Indiegogo?

IndieGoGo is a global crowdfunding platform that democratizes the way people raise funds for any project such as creative, entrepreneurial, or cause-related. The platform enables individuals and startups to generate pre-product sales and collect feedback from early adopters before they begin manufacturing. Find out more HERE.

What is crowdfunding?

If you are new to crowdfunding or Indiegogo you may not know how it all works and what are perks. Basically Indiegogo is a digital platform where you can support a project you want to become a reality.

The people working on the project therefore don’t need to have a lot of capital to start with. They also find out how many people are interested in their project.

You can decide to support their project by donating a small sum of money and in return for your financial support you can choose among perks that are available. They are a way to say thank you and also provide you with value.

If you are not familiar with crowdfunding and have a feeling that it is not safe or you have more questions, visit indiegogo.com or kickstarter.com and find out how many amazing projects were created with crowdfunding!

How do the perks work?

Different projects have different perks. Our perks are mostly focused on the subscription plans that would be at first available only through our Indiegogo campaign.

Artunio special features

Promote and manage events easily with our Event Manager

Pin your event on the Artunio map and let people in the vicinity of that location be notified that there is an event they might be interested in and directly buy tickets. Reach people interested in this type of events from greater distances.

Present and sell your art easily through Artunio Gallery

While galleries are still one of the best options, their vulnerability was shown during the pandemic with artists looking for alternative ways to show their art to collectors. Artunio Gallery is meant to connect artists, galleries, and collectors around the world.
