Creatorline
Branded creator membership with paywalled content and livestream
Creatorline is a Patreon-shaped membership platform under your brand for individual creators or small publishing houses. It pairs paywalled content (video, audio, posts) with subscription billing, member-exclusive livestream, and the lifecycle workflow that keeps members renewing. It runs on the Realtime Mobile Stack because a meaningful share of the audience consumes from a phone with the app on the home screen, not a browser bookmark.
Key features
- Subscription tiers (free, paid, founding-member) with content gating per tier
- Posts, video, audio, podcast-style RSS feed (member-only)
- Live video streaming with member-only chat (Mux Live + custom chat)
- Native iOS + Android apps under your brand
- In-app subscription via Apple / Google billing (unified via RevenueCat)
- Member-only community space (lighter than Communityhouse, optional)
- Direct messaging between creator and members (rate-limited)
- Reporting on subscriber growth, churn, top content, lifetime value
Architecture
Built on the Realtime Mobile Stack.
What you get
Creatorline ships as branded iOS + Android apps and a creator dashboard under your brand. RevenueCat handles iOS / Android subscription billing — the part that bites every creator-economy operator who tries to roll their own. Mux Live is wired for member-exclusive livestream on day one.
Sample customer story (placeholder — illustrative only)
A 4-person independent video-essay creator with 18,000 paying Patreon members licensed Creatorline to escape Patreon’s fee structure and a customer experience that always belonged to Patreon, not them. After six months on their own apps, ARR rose 19% (a meaningful share from members who upgraded once the experience felt like an “app,” not a “Patreon page”), and the creator’s per-member margin improved by 7 percentage points.
What’s NOT included
- Open community / forum at scale. Use Communityhouse.
- Course delivery (graded assignments, structured curriculum). Use Coursebase or Cohortly.
- One-time-purchase digital downloads. Possible as a paid customization, but the out-of-the-box product is subscription-shaped.
- Live shopping / merch fulfillment. Use Storeline alongside.
