Burst is the marketplace where short video courses drop like sneakers. Creators publish, the clock starts, and when time's up, the course disappears. No subscription. No lifetime backlog. Just urgency and focus.
Record a video under 20 minutes. Set your price ($7-$15). Hit publish. The 48-hour countdown begins.
Every course card shows time remaining. Soonest to expire shows first. No algorithm, no buried content. Pure urgency.
One purchase, one course, one sitting. Secure video playback with completion tracking. You bought it, you finished it.
At zero, the course disappears from the marketplace. No lifetime backlog. No 250,000-course graveyard. Fresh drops only.
Udemy pays 15% on subscriptions. Skillshare requires 50 followers before your first dollar. TikTok pays $0.03 per thousand views. The creator economy is $314 billion, and most of it goes to platforms.
Every sale, every time. Paid via Stripe. No opaque royalty pools. No minimums.
