Hi @evomoore. Great question. We’re looking at a couple of ways to monetize but haven’t finalized anything just yet. There are a couple of ways to look at pricing from our perspective: 1. Direct monetization: - You either pay a fee per domain for large group of users. - Or pay per user for a domain with smaller number of users. 2. Shared monetization: - For certain types of domains where you can get some value from the owner of that domain through premium content for example a management guru/celebrity/yoga teacher has a unique domain to share his/her knowledge with the followers, they can charge a fee to allow access to that domain/content. So users pay to join/access and we share the revenue with them. Users get value through access as well as content. As mentioned above we are looking at these ideas among others to monetize and preserve the promise of ad/spam free environment. Would love to hear other ideas!

@faraujoj At the moment we are end to end closed therefore no.

Hi @andrew_cho. Great question. So every domain is unique and you can sign up to a certain domain but won’t be able to actually sign in unless you are activated by the domain admin. We also built in something called segments wherein you can group users within a domain and you can only see/share content within that segment. Privacy and private interactions are at the heart of HUB. We don’t believe that being able to know the domain name you should be able to access it, then it wouldn’t really be private. Hope that answers your question.

@haqinam Thanks much for your detailed answer. That helps a lot for me to understand. Sounds great :D

@amokrane_tamine Thanks. Will enable return key in the next update.

@mickc79 pricing models are tricky here especially if you are taking a generic approach (per user or per domain). We are looking at multiple ways as mentioned above. Would love to hear about more ways to monetize.

@mickc79 That will most likely be an option.

Hi @ahmetkara. When your pre-ordered app (HUB) becomes available (May 1 in this case), you receive an email. If you turned on automatic downloads, the item automatically downloads to the device that you used to pre-order it. If you don't see a pre-ordered item on your device after it's released, find the item in your purchases and download it. You can also find it in the App Store and tap or click Get.

@m_stole Great question. As HUB is domain based each domain is secured on server side separately so in case of any malicious attack we are not putting the whole set of domains at risk. Besides each domain has a secure key to access any data. Then at domain level we have security rules in place particularly for media which gets stored on the cloud. Media is stored separately with secure encrypted domain key. Also we are end to end closed so no API access to external parties (at least not yet). Having said that there is still a lot more we can do which is something we are dedicating 30% resources as we move forward. Hope that answers the question.
