SOSShub: Why It Matters

Open source runs the world, but maintainers are unpaid.

Enterprises rely on your software, yet most funding skips the creators.

With SOSShub, maintainers claim ownership of their projects and receive direct revenue share from Kosai's security patching service.

How It Works – Simple & Transparent

1

Search for Your Project in SOSShub

If Kosai customers are using your projects, you are already accruing earnings on SOSSHub.  We hold earnings for unclaimed projects for one year, at which point we donate the excess to open source foundations.

2

Verify ownership through GitHub

As your projects and the SOSSHub platform become more popular, your earnings will increase. 

3

Earn revenue when enterprises pay for patches

Your project earns revenue based on its popularity.  Your earnings are based on the specific amounts being spent by specific users, rather than an aggregate share of all revenue.​​

More enterprise adoption = More earnings for you.

Maintainers FAQs

Does this change how I manage my project? 

No, you keep full control. We just add enterprise-grade patching.

What if I don't want to participate?

No problem, but if your project is widely used, you’re leaving money on the table.

How much can I earn?

Revenue is based on adoption. High-impact projects see significant earnings.

How is the amount I'm paid determined?

If a single developer is donating $10 a month and is subscribed to 5 packages, including yours, you will receive $2 a month.
