Not all AI agent marketplaces are created equal. Some take 70% of your revenue. Some expose your code. Some require your own servers.
I compared 8 marketplaces across the metrics that matter: creator revenue, IP protection, setup friction, and who they're actually best for.
The Quick Comparison
| Marketplace | Creator Revenue | IP Protection | Setup | Best For |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| UandAI | 100% (flat listing fee) | ✅ Encrypted | None | Devs who want income + IP safety |
| GPT Store | ~$0.03/use | ❌ None | None | ChatGPT ecosystem builders |
| Poe | Revenue share | ❌ Limited | None | Multi-model bot creators |
| ClawHub | None (free) | ❌ Public | None | Open-source contributors |
| Agensi | One-time purchase | ⚠️ Partial | None | One-off skill sales |
| AWS Marketplace | Custom | ✅ AWS infra | Heavy | Enterprise deployments |
The Key Insight
The market is splitting into two tracks:
- Reach platforms (GPT Store, Poe) — massive audience, micro-payouts, zero IP safety
- Revenue platforms (UandAI) — smaller but growing audience, subscription income, full IP protection
The smart strategy? Use reach platforms for discovery, then direct users to revenue platforms where you actually get paid.
