About

Substack is a subscription-based media platform that lets creators publish written content, podcasts, and videos to paying audiences. It enables writers, journalists, and creators to build independent businesses around their work. Readers subscribe to their favorite creators directly, providing a recurring revenue stream outside of traditional media.

Problem

Creators struggle to monetize their work and build a direct relationship with their audience outside of ad-supported platforms.

For

Independent writers, journalists, and creators

How it works

Creators publish content on their own Substack page and offer free or paid subscription tiers, earning revenue directly from subscriber payments.
