Roadmap

Two-month sprints. Month 1 is for new work: scoping and building. Month 2 is for testing, refinement, and support. Hotfixes ship as needed throughout. The changelog blog posts a recap at the close of each sprint, and the forum is where you can push us toward what to build next.

We don’t promise specifics here. What’s described as current or upcoming is a description of focus, not a commitment to ship a particular thing.

Current sprint

Soft launch refinement · May–June 2026 · month 2 of 2 (refinement)

Soft launch went live on 2026-05-11. This month is testing, polish, and fixing what early creators report. No major new features. The goal is a stable platform for the founder cohort.

Themes:

Walking through manual testing surfaces
Inviting and onboarding the first wave of creators
Tightening the feedback loop with the founders who join

What might come next

We don’t promise specifics. The next sprint (likely July–August) is expected to focus on areas like:

Upload UX (background uploads, larger files)
Observability for cost levers (so infrastructure decisions are made on real numbers)
A small-creator on-ramp

The sprint after that is too far out to gesture at honestly. The forum is the place to tell us what you’d want first.

Each closed sprint gets a recap on the changelog blog.

Earn-back credit program

A binding commitment, not a sprint item. If you earn less on the platform than you paid in tier fees during a 12-month period, the difference is credited as free months for the following year (capped at 12 months). Credits are calculated annually on your account anniversary. The 12-month clock starts when the alpha period ends. Launching no later than January 1, 2027.

See What We Guarantee for the full set of binding commitments.

What we won’t build

Algorithmic feeds or recommendation engines
Ads or sponsored content placement
DRM that punishes paying customers
Features that create platform lock-in
Attention-harvesting engagement tricks
Generative AI tools or features for users: no AI writing assistants, no AI-generated recommendations, no AI anything in the product you interact with
Opaque recommendations: we use Discovery Through Exploration: what you see is always traceable to a choice you made (a search, a follow, a tag), never to a model’s guess about what you might engage with

Areas we’re exploring

We don’t promise any of this. No timelines, no commitments. These are areas of interest that creators have asked about, listed here so the answer is honest instead of vague. If something here matters to you, say so on the forum. That’s how priorities shift.

Importers

Newsletter post + subscriber import, newsletter JSON import, subscriber CSV upload with consent emails.

Format variants

Creators upload pre-converted files (FLAC, MP3 320k, etc.). Fans choose their preferred format. No server-side transcoding.

Open source creator tools

Sponsor tiers, license display, release hosting, build status badges. Git-backed wikis, compare view, code search.

Creator storefront customization

Three levels of storefront customization, all available on every tier:

Theme basics: Modify colors, fonts, and layout options within the default theme
Custom CSS: Full CSS override or import on top of the default theme
Full template access: Near-complete control over the HTML and CSS of your storefront

Mobile apps

Native iOS and Android apps for fans. Library view, offline playback, downloads, audio player, reader, and push notifications. Built for listening to and viewing your library on the go.

Payment independence

Expand payment options over time. ACH/SEPA payouts, lower-cost processors, micro-transaction support.
