The first 500 creators shape what Komoto becomes. Every application is reviewed by the Komoto team, and we carefully select creators whose work and direction fit the brand we're building. Not everyone who applies will be accepted.

Your synopsis
Give us the big picture: the premise, the main characters, and where the story goes. Write it for someone who hasn't seen your series yet. Aim for a few short paragraphs, up to 1,000 characters.
A delivery rider races a monsoon to settle a debt that isn't hers. Over 10 episodes she uncovers who set her up, and what she's willing to lose to get out.
Your schedule, kept
You choose when and how often you release. Fans subscribe expecting new episodes on that rhythm, so we ask every creator to plan a schedule they can keep. If something comes up, let us know ahead of time.
