I've been using Geneva for the past months to run a group for Pattern. We're over 400 members and it's been awesome. It's like a friendly discord, or a less work-oriented slack. the team has been awesome on updates, feedback, and input as well. 🌸
Was one of the early Geneva users for a student club. The product takes the best of Slack and Discord, layers on a ton more features, and somehow keeps a clean and simple interface. Excited to see them launch!!
This sounds awesome! I've been running a large FB Group and I'm so tired of it. I use Mighty Networks for my smaller paid community, but even this is starting to feel a little clunky. It's great to see new solutions that really support the community hosts.
Question, will you have a discovery or search feature to find new groups to join?
@jennifer_lachs Hi Jennifer, thank you so much! We'd love for you to try out Geneva.
Right now, the the main way to discover new groups on Geneva is by syncing your phone contacts (which is optional) and then you can discover homes (groups) your contacts are in. We've included steps on how to set this up here: - https://www.notion.so/genevahq/D...
I've been in the community building game for a while and this is one of my favorite new platforms! Excited to see this team and product grow. Good people doing good things <3
This really looks great. I'm in marketing of an educational institute and we are currently looking to build our own community for our students. Our primary goal is to get people off Facebook and into a more private environment. There are 2 important features we need: privacy for our users and a way to manage groups where we decide what will be public and what not. Are these features planned? How do you earn money? I hope it's not a classical ad and meta-data selling business like FB etc.
@atmos_black Thank you for your support! We can guarantee that we 1) provide our users with privacy and will never rent/sell your data, 2) give admins the ability to manage group settings and 3) importantly, will not show you any ads! If and when you earn money on Geneva, we’ll share in the earnings with you (we keep 5%). We’re starting by allowing group leaders to charge members for access to a home. Over time, we’ll introduce more and more ways for everyone to be both a producer and a consumer on Geneva. Our long-term goal is to build an entire Geneva economy that benefits all users — not just the top 1% of super-creators. More on this to come, so stay tuned🙂

The product looks beautiful! Looking forward to giving it a try.
One more thing: May be I missed this on the website but what's the pricing/business model? Any plans to have personalized recommendations/ads in the future?
@katlallikaradi Thank you for your kind words! To answer your question, no - Geneva does not have ads and never will. We believe that the business model of collecting and selling people's data for advertising creates an incentive structure that prioritizes advertisers, not the people actually using a product every day. Instead, our business runs on a transaction-based model. We'll offer tools that allow people to make money on Geneva and when they do, we'll share in the success by taking a small percentage. Stay tuned 😊🌼

@eva_steinman Thank you for the answers. I appreciate the vision and clarity you have about advertising models and their adverse effects on user data. Wishing your team great success with the transaction-based model. Looking forward to more updates on it. Cheers!
