How They Stack

Six services, four operating layers.

Every community is built from the same four layers. We configure each one explicitly — no defaults left to the platform.

04

The how

Operating Model

Moderation playbook, member journeys, admin documentation.

Moderation Playbook
03

The why

Monetisation

Stripe products, tiered memberships, trials, dunning recovery.

Stripe Monetization
02

The who

Identity

SSO with Google, Apple, or your IdP. Session policy. Recovery flow.

SSO & Authentication
01

The where

Platform Foundation

A configured Discourse, Circle, or Mighty Networks instance on your subdomain.

Discourse Circle Mighty

Each layer can be ordered alone or chained with others. Skip what you have, add what you need.

A Typical Build

What happens between checkout and handover.

A real day-by-day timeline for the standard ten-day build.

Day 0

Checkout & Brief

Async

You complete checkout and submit a one-page brief — niche, member roles, monetisation model. The order page opens and the chat is live.

Day 1 – 2

Discovery & Provisioning

Internal

We provision your platform on the chosen subdomain, configure SSL, brand colours, and the trust-level framework. First preview link goes out.

Day 3 – 5

Architecture & Identity

Preview

Category tree, tag taxonomy, and member roles configured. SSO with Google or Apple wired up. Test logins from your team.

Day 6 – 8

Monetisation & Onboarding

Configure

Stripe products, tiers, and trials. Welcome flow, badges, and journey DMs. Content seeded if your tier includes it.

Day 9 – 10

Documentation & Handover

Deliver

Moderation playbook (PDF), admin guide (PDF + Loom walkthrough), and a live handover call. Keys transfer. You are live.

What You Walk Away With

Not just a community. An operating kit.

Every build closes with the same signed handover — the live platform plus the operating documents your team runs it with.
