OK, I dig this quite a bit. I'm finding that Discord might be a bit too much like Slack and that something more similar to Twitter/FB/Reddit might be the way to go.
thanks @drew! Yea, we've found that the ability to mix and match those different styles of convo for different moments / topics / sub-groups is really powerful! This way you get both the spontaneity/connection benefits of more casual daily banter with the organization/management benefits of those slightly more formal 'post' style interactions. Once you've given it a spin with a group, let us know how how it goes 🙌

This product is fantastic - congrats to the team, you've really built something remarkable
Hey guys - massive congrats on a remarkable looking product! I am literally just reviewing my community options as we speak over the last week and was weighing up circle or mighty but now you guys have thrown a very deliberate spanner in there!
I'd love to know what the main points of differentiation are if you are happy to share - why choose you over them (intended in the nicest non confrontational tone possible!) x
@murraymuzz Hey Daniel, thank you! Glad we caught you in the nick of time and appreciate the question. The biggest difference is that Circle and Mighty focus on one type of interaction: asynchronous, forum-style posts akin to a Facebook Groups. On Geneva, you can use that same style of asynchronous post rooms, PLUS real-time chat rooms, group audio and video rooms, and broadcast rooms (which are a bit like private Instagram live or Clubhouse with video).
@murraymuzz building on @rightbackatyu's point - we've found that the ability to mix and match these different communication types creates a more dynamic space. And of course, unlike those platforms, Geneva is totally free to use!
You can read our introductory blog post for more details (https://geneva.com/blog/hey) and if you'd like, feel free to reach out to Kim, our Head of Groups & Communities (kim@geneva.com) to learn more and/or to see all of the above in action!
@rightbackatyu great answers thank you - makes lots of sense.
Next question - are there paid/unpaid versions of joining the community? Couldnt really see that option in any obvious way...
And whilst I have you is there like a public landing page experience you could send people to so to speak....
Oh and finally - does this sit separately to websites/brands or can it be integrated with shopify/squarespace etc as an extension of the brand experience?
Thanks!
PS: Totally appreciate you cant make it all things to all use cases so sorry for some of the nuanced questions here but in case you've not guessed - brand owner here! I did read your whole post of who's using it etc but all the links link to their websites, not their community spaces so its kind of hard to see how those are run....
@murraymuzz Hey Daniel, a couple responses:
- Yup, built-in entry fees are coming this summer so leaders will have the option to do a paid model.
- Yes: today, when you share an invite link to your Geneva home and someone clicks it, they'll see a mini-landing page that shows your home's name, details, and list of rooms inside. Toward the end of the year we're planning to make public-facing home landing pages even more robust and pair them with custom (vanity) domains.
- For now, Geneva groups sit separately from third-party payments and vendors, but we're planning to launch a membership API (likely through Zapier) in Q3 or Q4.
We completely understand (and hear from the groups on Geneva today!) that brands really value customizability and a space that looks and feels on-brand, and are working hard to make that happen :)
