or adult creators, finding a place to shoot has long been one of the industry’s quietest challenges — not because demand is lacking, but because acceptance is. That’s the gap a new startup, FckSpace, is trying to fill.
Currently in beta, FckSpace describes itself as a location marketplace designed specifically for adult productions, connecting creators with private spaces hosted by people who explicitly welcome adult shoots. Its goal? To remove the gray areas that plague mainstream rental apps — the euphemisms, the coded messages, the risk of sudden bans for “violating platform policy.” Instead, FckSpace promises a verified, transparent booking system for the work creators actually do.
According to the company, FckSpace gives creators access to “real private spaces, real hosts who understand the industry, and a booking system that respects their work.”
On the creator side, users can browse available filming locations, communicate directly with hosts, and review expectations upfront. Hosts, meanwhile, receive vetted profiles, clear project details, and transparent communication tools — all aimed at reducing the uncertainty that often surrounds adult bookings. It’s a model that, if it works, could make one of the most stressful parts of adult content creation — where to shoot — far simpler.
The Longstanding Problem with Shooting Adult Content
Ask almost any adult performer, and they’ll tell you: getting deplatformed for being honest is part of the job. From payment processors to short-term rental sites, the adult industry has spent years working around systems not built to include it. Creators have had accounts suspended or banned from platforms like Airbnb after their professional identity became linked to adult work — even when the bookings themselves were unrelated. And as for producers? They'll all tell you the biggest headache is finding locations. Which is why so much porn is shot at the same 10 houses-- there just aren't many options.
According to a FckSpace spokesperson, “These bans often happen without clarity or warning. There’s rarely an appeal process, and creators are left trying to reword what they do — or filming in secret and hoping they’re not caught.” That “shadow economy” of hidden filming and coded communication has shaped the modern adult creator experience — one where fear often outweighs freedom.
The Vision: Infrastructure for an Industry That’s Outgrown Its Tools
Founder Shawn Doc says the platform was born from seeing that gap firsthand. “Adult creators have tools for posting and selling,” he explains, “but almost nothing that supports the production side. FckSpace is about giving creators real options — not just digital ones.”
Doc describes FckSpace less as a disruptor and more as an attempt at basic infrastructure — the kind of logistical framework that mainstream entertainment takes for granted. It’s an ambitious idea: a marketplace that normalizes the logistics of adult work while keeping both sides protected.
FckSpace remains in closed beta, with plans for a wider launch following its presentation at the TES Affiliate Conference in Marbella next spring. There, the team will outline their roadmap and test how the idea resonates with creators, hosts, and industry partners. Applications for early access are open at FckSpace.com, though the company says approval is limited as they test verification systems and host onboarding tools.
