## What is JoinGild?

Gild is the creator platform where creators build real businesses and fans get closer to the people they love.

CREATE YOUR WAY
Post photos, videos, voice essays, articles, and notes. Share stories straight from the camera with text overlays. Start a podcast with episodes, clips, and RSS import. Go live with multiple creators on screen. Build courses. Whatever your content looks like, Gild has a format for it.

GO LIVE
Broadcast to your audience with multi-host video, real-time chat, and live gifting. Fans send animated gifts during your stream and compete on a live leaderboard. Host audio rooms. Book one-on-one video calls. Save any recording as a podcast episode when you're done.

STORIES
Share moments that disappear. Create from the camera with draggable text, lock stories behind subscription tiers, and archive your favorites as highlights. Fans swipe through with smooth transitions, react with emoji, and reply right from the viewer.

BUILD A BUSINESS
Set up subscription tiers with custom perks. Accept tips and gifts. Open paid DMs. Sell digital products in your own shop. Host ticketed events. Offer courses. Sell merch with built-in print-on-demand. 

TOKENS
One currency across the entire platform. Fans buy token packs and use them for subscriptions, tips, gifts, shop purchases, event tickets, video calls, and rewards. Simple for fans, powerful for creators.

PROTECT YOUR WORK
Choose how your content is protected. Invisible watermarks trace leaked content back to the viewer. Screenshot and recording detection shows you exactly when someone tries to capture your work. File takedown requests with evidence tracking and status updates.

GROW YOUR COMMUNITY
Badges reward your most engaged fans automatically. Leaderboards rank your top supporters each month. Send broadcast messages to your entire audience. Set up auto-replies for new followers. Create a referral program and earn when new creators join through your link.

PODCASTS
Launch a full show with cover art, episodes, and clips. Offer audio and video tiers at different price points. Fans get a complete listening experience with background playback, speed control, and lock screen controls. Import your existing catalog via RSS in one tap.

COLLABORATE
Co-create with other creators and split revenue however you want. Tag guests on episodes. Gift subscriptions to fans.

FOR FANS
Discover creators across every category. Follow for free or subscribe for exclusive access. Watch live streams, join audio rooms, buy digital products, attend events, book video calls, send gifts, earn badges, climb leaderboards, and redeem rewards.

No algorithms burying your content. No platforms taking unfair cuts. Just creators and fans, directly connected.
