Twitter style
Short posts, replies, reposts and real-time trends.
For conversation that moves fast — a newsroom, a fandom, the crowd around a match or a launch. A black, text-first timeline with For you and Following, 280 characters a post, and trends that show what everyone is talking about.
Its own test web app and admin, with logins you can use right away.

One type per network, chosen at setup. We build your web app, admin console and store apps as the type you pick, and it stays that type for good — there’s no switching to another type later. Not sure yet? Test all six first.
What members get
Built for what’s happening now.
Dense rows with replies, reposts, likes and view counts, quote posts, trends and bookmarks, in a lights-out black interface.
280 characters, with a progress ring
The composer counts down with a progress ring. The same limit on posts and replies keeps every take short.
Reposts, quotes and view counts
Repost to your followers or quote with a take of your own. Every post shows how many people saw it.
Trends and bookmarks
Explore ranks the hashtags people are posting about, and bookmarks keep posts to read later.

How you make money
What a Twitter-style network earns you.
Every stream below is in the product today. You set the fees in your admin; the money goes to your own Stripe account and wallets — we don’t take a cut.
A fee on every token payment
Members pay each other in tokens (1 token = US$1). You keep a share of every payment: 10% by default, and each kind of payment can have its own fee. Reward offers carry none unless you set one.
- Paid posts
- Paid comments
- Subscriptions to creators
- Tips
Admin → Tokens → Settings → Fees
Token sales and cash-outs
Every token is bought from your network: by card into your Stripe account, or with Bitcoin and Ethereum sent to wallets you own. You can add a service fee to each purchase and a fee to each cash-out (both 0% by default). Cash-outs stay off until you allow them, and you settle each one.

Advertising: Twitter-style Ads
Advertisers buy reach from you in a self-serve, Twitter-style Ads manager, or promote a post in a few taps. They pay from a prepaid balance or by card, and every ad waits in your review queue.
- Home timelines
- Profiles
- Search results
- Replies
Admin → Advertising
Membership plans
Paid plans members take by the month, by the year or once, billed by Stripe straight into your account, at the prices you set.
- Monthly
- Yearly
- One-time
Admin → Subscriptions
Card tips
Members can also tip a creator by card from the creator’s profile. You keep a platform fee on each tip: 10% by default.

Creator economy
What creators sell, and members pay for.
Subscriber-only posts, tips and paid replies for the accounts people follow most closely, paid in tokens bought by card or crypto — or a tip by card.
One wallet, in tokens
1 token = US$1. Members buy tokens by card through Stripe, or send Bitcoin or Ethereum to a deposit address of their own.
Paid and subscriber-only posts
Creators put a price on a post, photo or video, or keep it for subscribers. Locked posts stay in the feed, behind a lock.
Monthly subscriptions
Members subscribe to a creator by the month, in tokens, and see everything the creator keeps for subscribers.
Tips and paid comments
Members tip creators, and creators can set a price to comment on their posts.
Reward offers
Creators offer tokens for a follow, a like, a share or a comment, under rules they set.
Your fee, your rules
You set the fee on each kind of token payment — 10% by default — plus optional fees on buying tokens and on cash-outs. Cash-outs stay off until you switch them on in Admin → Tokens.
Every part has its own switch in Admin → Tokens. Switched off, nothing new can be bought or unlocked, and what members already paid for stays theirs.

Questions
About the Twitter-style app
How long can a post be?
280 characters, for posts and replies alike. The composer shows a progress ring as you type.
Can accounts be private?
Yes. Follows go one way, and private accounts approve who follows them. A pending request sees nothing.
How does promoting a post work?
Pick an audience, a duration and a daily budget, and the post runs as an ad. Bigger advertisers use the Twitter-style Ads manager: campaign, ad group, ad.
Does it show view counts?
Yes, on every post. A promoted video counts as viewed after 2 seconds with at least half of it on screen.
Can I change the type later?
No. The six types are different apps — each with its own layout, words and features — and your web app, admin and store apps are built as the type you choose. You pick it at setup, and it stays that type for good.
Is this affiliated with Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, TikTok, LinkedIn or YouTube?
No. “Facebook-style” and the rest describe the kind of experience your members get. Your network carries your own name and logo.
The other five types
Each one is a separate app. Your network is built as the type you choose.
Twitter style
Launch your own Twitter-style network.
Your name, logo and colours on the web, iOS and Android, live in about two weeks. Test it on its own test network before you choose.
