Your people. Your space.
Build communities that feel like yours. Not a rented room on someone else's platform.
Three ways to gather.
01
Public
Discoverable. Open. Growing.
Discoverable by anyone. Open membership. Great for movements, fan communities, open discussions. Your space grows naturally through search and recommendations.
02
Private
Invite-only. Hidden. Yours.
Invite-only. Hidden from search. Perfect for friend groups, teams, exclusive clubs. What happens here stays here.
03
Restricted
Visible. Curated. Intentional.
Visible but approval required. Best for curated communities, professional groups, moderated forums. You control who joins. Members apply, you decide.
