Imagine if Podia, Circle, ConvertKit, Airtable and Ghost Had a Baby.
This post was originally published on September 8, 2022 in another Substack publication of mine, TechThought.Close your eyes for a moment, if you would, and imagine an app that combines the best of Podia, Circle, ConvertKit, Airtable, and Ghost. Throw in a robust API and Zapier integration and watch out!
Here's why I think a hybrid of these 5 apps would be game-changing.
Podia
Take a dash of Podia...
- Design and aesthetic
- Build an entire website
- Courses/digital products/memberships
Circle
Add a sprinkle of Circle...
- Discussions, posts, comments
- Spaces (private, public, paid)
- Member directory and chat
ConvertKit
Throw in a pinch of ConvertKit...
- Robust email marketing
- Automation & workflows
- Simplicity and UX
Airtable
Use a smidge of Airtable...
- Databases and views
- Present data beautifully
- Power dashboards, products and website
Ghost
And blend in a bit of Ghost...
- Content creation
- Beautifully simple CMS
- Ease-of-use
The Ultimate Creator App
Though it might sound like overkill, and maybe it is, I think an app like this could charge $99/month and be the one and only app that most creators would need.
Take the very best features from all these platforms, smush them together and make $$$.
What's Missing?
Anything else you'd like to see? Would you replace any of the apps with something else (yeah, yeah, I know...Notion 😛)?
I'm curious what creators out there think. Would this app be way more than you need, or would it be nice to have it all in one platform?
