Vision
Creator Features
Free File Hosting
- No more dropbox
- Super easy management of your map files and how they're tied to tiers
- Upload a "signature" image or watermark and automatically generate public-facing maps
Back Catalogue
- No more users subscribing, downloading everything, and then unsubscribing
- Users must purchase maps that were released before their subscriptions
- Optional: give users discounts (or free maps) based on length of subscription
Per-Creation Pricing ++
- All creators are paid per-creation, but all users are on monthly subscriptions
- Creators are required to indicate their expected # of maps/month
- When a user signs up, they are charged
- If a creator does not release that number of maps, subscribers' next month is discounted appropriately
- A creator cannot release more than their indicated # of maps a month
- Advantages over Patreon:
- Gets rid of the "maximum amount" that allowed users to pay for 1 map while getting the entire month's worth
- Allows creators flexibility to take holiday, reduce releases due to illness, etc.
Social Media Helper
- Link your account with social media accounts and automatically post new maps
- Unique links for each social media platform so you can track which platform is giving you the most traffic
Analytics
- Hopefully everything you'd expect to see
- Map downloads, views, user growth, etc.
Autogrid
- Automatically add gridded variants to your map
- Set your grid size, color, opacity, blend mode, and boom, half the amount of images to deal with.
User Features
Map Library
An easy place for users to find all the maps they've purchased or gotten through subscriptions
Search & Discover
- Significantly improved search and discovery over Patreon
- Search by tag, size, setting, etc.
