The transcript

how AIU came to be
the foundation
Business, media, and ownership

Before adult, Bree worked in modeling, photography, marketing, and business operations. She entered the industry treating every opportunity like a business decision: understand the contract, own the work, protect the brand.

inside the industry
Performers, studios, events, and platforms

Production work, collaborations, interviews, conventions, and award events gave Bree a firsthand view of how the industry actually operates beyond the camera — performers, studios, platforms, and the businesses built around them.

the information gap
Too much of the industry was learned the hard way

The same problems kept appearing: confusing contracts, unclear platform rules, exploitative management, payment issues. Critical information lived only in private conversations — there was no single, accessible place explaining how the industry worked.

2024
Adult Industry University opens

AIU launched as an independent educational resource: practical industry information that's easy to find, understand, and use — no commissions, no gatekeeping, no promises of overnight success. Today, everything on the site is free.

Building, producing, researching, and reporting

Bree still works inside the industry — porn star, creator, interviewer, VR studio owner, founder of ThirstChat. That's what keeps AIU connected to the realities of adult work today.

AIU combines firsthand experience with independent research, interviews, platform documentation, professional input, and community knowledge.
