Mighty has more $1M communities than any other platform. Why? Because it’s the only community software designed to introduce your members to each other and help them connect. Those member to member interactions are ultimately what will make your courses, challenges, events and memberships successful. Mighty powers them using its proprietary People Magic AI, which is designed to surface the most interesting and relevant members to each other and help them break the ice. On Mighty, a creator, entrepreneur, coach or community leader can host groups and subgroups, offer courses, livestream, run events, and more. They can offer those things for free or charge for access on a recurring or one-time basis. Every day millions of members contribute to communities on Mighty centered on diverse topics — health and wellness, spirituality, career, relationships, personal development, and hobbies are all well represented. Brands also use Mighty for customer communities, ambassador activations, and employee engagement. “It was very important to me to not have my community on Facebook. Mighty Networks has been a great alternative and has only gotten better in the five years I’ve used it.” - Tara W., Mighty Host “It's just sooooo easy to use, to build my content, my courses, my coaching delivery. It's easy. Very low learning curve. I was up in days with Mighty. “ - Kelley T., Mighty Host “Intuitive and flexible—highly recommended! Mighty's saved us time, improved engagement, and given our members a far more cohesive experience.” - James E. Mighty Host “My Mighty Network is incredibly dynamic and keeps getting better. The features they offer make it easy to build a community and, more importantly, keep my members engaged. Their team is also highly responsive, another reason I love Mighty. In short, A+” - Dana Wilde, Mighty Host “There are so many ways to customize your community and offerings, with new features coming all the time.” - Steff B, Mighty Host The future’s more interesting when we’re in it together. Climb aboard—and let’s go. -- Terms of Use: https://mn.co/terms-of-use

The real world is your feed. Poke turns places into a social feed. Record a short video of yourself, let AI remove the background, and drop yourself as a flat hologram on a beach, a café or a street corner. People nearby find you through their camera. RECORD IN 10 SECONDS Hold to record with the back camera, or use the front camera with a 3-2-1 countdown. Add a sound, or post a clip from your camera roll. The background is removed for you after you post. SEE WHO'S BEEN HERE Open the XR Feed to see holograms of real people standing in the world around you. Swipe through who's nearby and leave your own wherever you go. ONE POKE, TWO SIGNALS Poking a hologram likes it and sends a friend request at the same time. Tap Accept to connect, and keep up with pokes and friends in the Poke Center. TALK IT OUT Message friends, share holograms in chat, and leave comments on the holograms you find. CLAIM YOUR BLOCK The map is split into real-world blocks. The most active creators take control of territory in their area. POKE POINTS See your points balance in the XR Feed and send points to friends. BUILT FOR 13+ Poke is for ages 13 and up. You choose where your holograms go, and XR Feed filters let you show friends only, or filter by gender and age. On your phone today, built for the XR glasses of tomorrow. Drop your first hologram.

Verdict

The call

Poke also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 10) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 17.0). Mighty Networks's advantage is ratings volume (75K vs 4) and update cadence (weekly vs every 3 weeks). On price, rating, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
