At NIUHI, we look forward every day to meeting the unique talents of creators and helping share their work with the world. So, in this post, we'll introduce the benefits of joining NIUHI and explain how you can get started!
Benefits of Joining NIUHI
- Creators from all over the world are welcome!
- Opportunities for multilingual translation
- Low platform fees
- Option to keep your distance from AI
- Creators from all over the world are welcome!
Creators from any country or region are welcome to join NIUHI.
With seamless multilingual support and multiple payment options, creators can share their works with readers around the world*.
*Distribution can also be restricted to specific regions when needed.
NIUHI also has no exclusivity requirements, allowing creators to distribute their works freely alongside other publishing platforms and printed books. - Opportunities for multilingual translation
If a creator allows community (user) translations for their work, anyone who purchases it—or adds it to their library if it's free—can become a translator. (It is similar to adding subtitles on a video streaming platform.)
For an inside look at how translations actually happen, check out our blog post on the topic.
Translations created on NIUHI can also be freely used by the creator in their own printed works. All that's required is including the specified credit, but there are no fees involved.- Low platform fees
NIUHI rewards creators with industry-leading royalty rates.
In addition to domestic distribution, creators can also reach audiences in other countries.
Works are sold with a 30% platform fee when community translation is enabled for all languages, or a 40% platform fee when distribution regions or languages are partially restricted. - Option to keep your distance from AI
It's no secret that the role of AI has become a hot topic in the manga industry recently. At NIUHI, we do not actively use AI. The reason is simple: we want to preserve the value and uniqueness that can only come from human hands.
For this reason, we also do not encourage the use of AI for translations.
