Building in Public

We believe in the power of transparency and community engagement. That's why we're building in public, open-source, towards community ownership.

Business Model

We are exploring sources of revenue that support our goal of community ownership. Have an idea? Let us know! Our three best ideas:

  • Members Support Curators: Soonlist users can financially support event curators through tips/subscriptions, and Soonlist takes a cut to support development.
  • Free/Supporter Monthly Subscriptions: Some features are just available to paying members. We want most members to be able to use Soonlist for free, so this would be more advanced features or customizations.
  • Commercial Events: We could find ways to monetize larger, commercial events to make Soonlist free for smaller or non-commercial events.

Collaborative Open Source

Soonlist is more than a platform; it's a collaborative endeavor. We're open-source, meaning our codebase is publicly available , allowing anyone to contribute, inspect, or adapt it.
