@titusdecali 99Circles aims to be a one stop destination for content creators going forward. Some areas that we have focused on for now are - 1. Creators can upload content directly onto 99Circles instead of using public services like Youtube, Vimeo or other file hosting services. We are launching DRM as well in the coming week to enable better content protection for creators 2. 99Circles allows creators to upload and share any file type - for example creators could be designers wanting to share PSD templates or fruity loop files or even doc templates. 99Circles enables creators to share files with their subscribers without restrictions. 3. 99Circles doesn’t charge a commission from the earnings of creators and works on a SaaS model instead making it much more cost effective for creators in the long term. For beginners, there is a free plan for upto 25 subscribers. 4. 99Circles enables creators to support causes and have complete control on the billing frequencies for their membership plans as well. 5. 99Circles enables content creator pages to be discovered by users thereby bringing in more channels for subscriber growth

@dsouzaalan Thanks for your nice explanation. I like the way you are thinking about pricing. That sounds quite reasonable ^^

@titusdecali @dsouzaalan Sounds interesting. The lack of internal discovery on Patreon always bugged me. Bad from a user perspective (it's a lot of fun to explore projects on Kickstarter, for example) and also detrimental to their own revenue stream.

@titusdecali @deejtulleken Its only fair for creator pages to be discovered by more subscribers unless the creator themselves dont want their pages to be discovered.

Thanks for hunting us @kevin ! Hi Product Hunt, I am super delighted to be launching my first product today on ProductHunt! Being digital creators ourselves, we always wanted to have a super simple way of monetising creative talent and that's how we came up with 99Circles. 99Circles is a platform that enables digital creators to create a steady recurring revenue stream from the content they create. It enables them to create their own page and setup subscription based access to their content in less than 2 minutes even without any technical skills. For most users, 99Circles provides a platform to find, support and interact with high quality content and their favourite creators in an ad-free frictionless environment. For Digital Creators, 99Circles enables them to - - Create their own pages describing what they do - Get discovered by more subscribers who are looking to consume/support similar content - Setup multiple membership plans with weekly, fortnightly and monthly recurring billing options - Setup trial access to the content they create - Pledge support to a cause and gather community support for the same through their content - Distribute any content type - Articles, Photos, Videos, Audio files, Documents, Youtube links or any other file types as well - Get analytics and data on which content type works best for them - Get stress free payouts without having to deal with gateways, chargebacks or any such inconveniences with preferred invoicing methods globally. 99Circles is absolutely free to use upto 25 subscribers and can be used by creators of any kind to build and grow their subscription community online. In the coming weeks, we plan to launch mobile apps, DRM content protection, direct messaging, newsletters and several more features to make it easier for creators to distribute and interact with their subscribers. Being our first product here, we have tried our best to cover most tools that we thought were most useful for creators. We would love it if you could introduce 99Circles to the digital creators around you and help build this platform as a community of creative talent. We're more than happy to answer any queries and would love your feedback on our product. Looking forward to building 99Circles as a one stop platform for digital creators. Cheers! Alan

This looks very promising @dsouzaalan! Do you have a demo page of what a community page looks like?

@alexanderspoor Thank you so much. I am not sure how to attach images here. But the first image in the gallery on producthunt is how the community page looks like. Also, creating page is free. Would be great to get your feedback there.

Cool product founders! I felt like your landing page is a little text heavy and gave some recommendations on your page: https://app.usebubbles.com/1d024... -- let me know if this helps! Good luck!

@tom4 Thanks so much for this Tom. Really appreciate the time and effort on this. Your suggestions definitely help and we will get some of them implemented in the coming weeks. We are also considering adding a video on the top for easier understanding of what we do. Do you think that would help better?
