Omics

What is Omics?

Omics emerges as a solution for independent authors who do not have a clear way of distributing their own comics. Moreover, it is important for them to get a retribution for their works. This platform aims to create an interactive space to bring authors closer to potential readers. Anyone can upload and publish their work after going through a selection process. The platform distributes high-quality content, supporting new authors and those who already have experience in the field. It is important to emphasize the closeness between authors and readers.

An author is rewarded with monthly payments according to the impact of their work and the interaction achieved with the readers. On the other hand, the readers can subscribe to a plan to get access to premium content whose author has contracts with the platform. Omics has a rating system to promote its catalog. Any reader can rate, review and follow his favorite comics. By this way keeping them at hand is easier.

Nobody has to invest in paper, protecting the environment, and each reader receives personalized readings according to their preferences.

The process is simple: a user uploads and publishes a comic, and a content-manager approves his work. After generating enough engagement from the readings, the author can apply for a contract to earn money. At the same time, a reader can get access to free content and pay a monthly subscription to read the publications that have a contract. The income is distributed among all the authors.
