The backstory is pretty simple. Creators are juggling too many platforms just to make a living. Patreon for memberships, Ko-fi for tips, Discord for community, Gumroad for selling stuff, and the list goes on. We thought there had to be a better way.
So we built something that brings it all together. One profile page where creators can accept donations, sell monthly memberships, chat with supporters in real time, and run a digital store for ebooks or courses or whatever they make. The supporter pays, money goes straight to the creator's connected account, we take a small platform fee, done.
We went with direct charges instead of holding funds. Seemed cleaner and less regulatory headache. Real-time chat runs on WebSockets so creators can talk with paying members without sending them elsewhere.
Would appreciate if you could check it out and share your thoughts. What features would make this actually useful for you as a creator or supporter?

Yeah, the better way is ditch Ko-fi or Patreon and Gumroad because using 3 platforms when 1 of them can do it all isn't sane. You're basically like "instead of having to buy 3 cars - one for groceries, one for errands, one for work. Buy our car, it can do it all!" when 1 of other cars can also do all that just fine.
Patreon has memberships, chatting and a shop (which you can also use for tips)
Ko-fi also has memberships, chatting, tips and a shop.
And both also have the option of connecting Discord.
Like, cool that you're making a competitor but that's a weird way to market it.
