Editions, languages, monthly ranking rules, source licensing, AI reliability, creator commerce, and payouts.

Product and editions

What is Shangence?

Shangence is an independent product community for AI founders and builders, centered on products, source code, practical learning, global-launch exchange, and monthly Vibe Coding rankings.

Is Shangence a new product?

Yes. Shangence has its own accounts, data, apps, and service infrastructure. Users and community content from other products are not imported.

How do the two editions differ?

The Mainland China edition accepts Mainland China registration only. The International edition supports selected countries and regions outside Mainland China. Accounts and data services are separate.

Does Shangence support three languages?

First-party iOS and Web interfaces support Simplified Chinese, English, and Japanese. User content stays in its original language, with clearly labeled AI translations where available.

Rankings, source code and AI

How do I enter the monthly rankings?

Create a project page, enter during the monthly submission window, and pass eligibility review. Dates, eligibility, support voting, and appeals are published on the rules page.

What determines the rankings?

Community rankings use reviewed, valid, unique supporters only, with ties sharing the same rank. Likes, views, membership, and paid promotion do not count. A separate public human review selects the Best Project of the Month.

Can source code be used commercially?

Not necessarily. Each resource should state its license, which must be followed before downloading, modifying, or using it commercially.

Is AI output reliable?

AI helps organize, write, translate, and discover content, but it can be wrong and does not replace legal, financial, medical, or other professional advice.

Creators and commerce

What can creators sell?

Creators can offer AI courses, practical tutorials, digital resources, source-code licenses, and project licenses. They must hold the necessary rights and accurately describe delivery, licensing, updates, and refund terms.

How do earnings and payouts work?

After an order is completed, earnings become available for payout according to refund periods, dispute status, platform and payment fees, taxes, and applicable payout rules. Availability varies by region.

Does a source license transfer ownership?

No, unless both parties sign a separate agreement explicitly transferring ownership. A standard source-code product grants only the usage rights stated on its product page and order snapshot.

Can I buy an entire project directly?

Not through one-click checkout. Shangence V1 only provides inquiry and contact tools; both parties define scope, perform due diligence, and contract outside the platform.

Does Shangence guarantee creator income?

No. Visibility, orders, and earnings depend on content quality, licensing, pricing, demand, refunds, and other factors. Estimated earnings shown in Creator Studio are not a payout guarantee.
