@devezehugo - Hey! Yep, good question - we've done a ton of user research over the past year, and both of us have been building cross-platform app systems for the past 10 years. Over the coming months, we'll be partnering with early-access merchants to iterate on the SDK before offering it publicly. If you're interested, please reach out!

Thanks for posting! Really cool product. For non-technical members of growth/product teams 🙋♂️, would Velvet enable accounts creation and payments without any engineering implementation?
@dan_lesser - Yep, great question. Our hosted checkout pages are a no-code way to create accounts for new users, identify returning users, and accept payments using Stripe. Once you want a native or cross-platform experience, your engineering team can use our SDK built on top of the exact same system. This means you'll never need to do an arduous migration or risk losing valuable customer data as you scale. The other major benefit for non-technical members of the team is the control you'll have over onboarding and retention once Velvet is integrated. You'll be able to change copy, experiment with pricing, view data, and manage users without the support of an engineer. Let me know if there are any features you're particularly interested in!

Thanks for sharing Velvet with the Product Hunt community! Can you tell us a bit more about how Velvet differs from other cross-platform tooling for app infrastructure, and how it specifically helps startups improve their onboarding and retention metrics?
@cristinaj856 - Great question, thanks. There are two types of solutions teams can use today - (1) app stores, (2) point solutions. The app stores are not cross-platform. Apple gives you auth, payment, and data tooling to build on top of, but they won't help you (or often allow you) sell on Android, web, or anywhere else. Point solutions can be implemented as part of an overall system, but they require investment and resources to connect as a cohesive system, often resulting in poorly designed systems that lead to drop-off, churn, and lost revenue. We're building the connective tissue to authenticate your acquired users, monetize your product, and understand metrics so you can put your most valuable resources toward creating differentiated value beyond the account and paywall.
