Hi everyone 👋 Thank you Li for hunting us and to everyone who's been on this journey with us. After 2 years of quietly building Geneva, we're excited to come out of our public beta and open Geneva to the world by launching on PH today. Our team will be answering questions here on PH and if you want to check out the app and hang out with us and a few special guests, join our Launch Party home where we'll be hosting a few Geneva 101 sessions, highlighting some incredible groups building on Geneva, and more: (https://links.geneva.com/invite/...) To quickly summarize, Geneva is an all-in-one communication app for groups, clubs, and communities of all shapes & sizes. We know that participating in social groups — from school clubs when we're young to professional networks as we get older — is vital to our happiness and well-being. But we couldn't find a single app that let us stay connected with all the groups and communities in our lives in all the ways we wanted. Most chat apps weren't powerful or flexible enough, Slack was designed for work, Discord was designed for gamers, traditional community platforms were expensive and not right for our social groups, and Facebook felt a bit outdated. To solve this problem, we set out to create a new kind of digital infrastructure for groups: something that blended together the best parts of the chat, audio, and video apps we'd been using, plus all the bells and whistles groups need to thrive. Since we opened our public beta last August, we've seen all kinds of groups find a home on Geneva and use our app in incredible ways. Many existing groups have moved over from Facebook Groups, Slack, and GroupMe and many new ones are being built natively on Geneva. Here are a few examples: - Social clubs like Jet Black, The Conversationalist, Endurance Nation, and Soho Supper Club - Non-profits and movements like EEqual and Earth Uprising International - Creator-led communities like Sea Moss Life, Hannah Bronfman's HB Fit, and Jasmine Tookes & Josephine Skriver's JOJA - Brand-led communities like August, Bubble, Pattern, Ghia, and Geenie - Learning communities like Kode with Klossy, Nik Sharma's DTC / CPG group, and TheAList - All kinds of other groups including sororities, TV series fanatics, book clubs, hiking clubs, coworker crews, friends, families and more. You can read more about how people are using Geneva here: (https://geneva.com/blog/whos-usi...) We're just getting started and have a lot in store over the next 12 months. To learn more about what we've built and where we're going, check out our hello world blog post: (https://geneva.com/blog/hey) Thank you for your consideration. We hope you like it ❤️🌼

Very excited to see great community tools like this, built from the ground up for this modern age. This is just the beginning and I'm excited to see where the team goes from here. You could've seen these trendlines happening a few years ago as folks cobbled together so many different platforms to try and give their people what they want -- now enter: Geneva.

Transition to Web3

Hi everyone 👋 After I wrote an article called "Community leaders deserve better" (https://li.substack.com/p/commun...) a few months ago, I got introduced to the team at Geneva who have been quietly working on this exact challenge for the last 2 years (way before 'community' was hot!). I was floored by how closely aligned our visions were, became an investor, and was honored when they asked for my help announcing their launch. As someone who's seen and used probably 50+ different group chat and community platforms, I can confidently say that Geneva is my favorite. It's beautiful, clean, and a delight to use. In functional terms, the team describes Geneva as an ‘all-in-one communication app’ that brings together everything groups need to stay connected. But in a larger sense, Geneva is a new kind of digital infrastructure — the foundation upon which a new breed of cloud-native groups, clubs, communities, and even cities will be built over the coming decades. My favorite thing about Geneva is how it combines all the different ways groups communicate digitally — real-time chat, forum-style posts, casual group audio and video, and live broadcasts — into one intuitive experience. It then layers on all the things leaders need to keep groups running smoothly: built-in member applications, a centralized events calendar, roles & permissions, safety features, and more. And as if that wasn't enough, they're also starting to build out an entire economic system to underpin the whole thing: a suite of peer-to-peer transactions and Web3 community tools that'll align incentives and allow everyone to create value and wealth accordingly. With the best parts of Slack/Discord, Facebook groups, Clubhouse, Zoom, IG live, Typeform, and Google Calendar already built in and a really thoughtful plan for the road ahead — I'm beyond excited to see where this goes. The team and I will be hanging out on PH all day and we'd love to hear what you think! If you have any thoughts or questions, leave a note in the comments.

@ljin18 Your Substack article was great - and highlights many of the issues I've faced in creating online communities. How many of the 10 feature requests you propose does Geneva check off? And if you don't mind going further, which ones are they/which are missing?

Congratulations @justinhauser and team on this launch. I'm looking to launch HAX (personal finance community for GenZ) and been debating whether to use Discord or Slack. This sounds amazing, will def take a look. Do you have a feature that can create micro-squads for accountability similar to the Donut Slack app? Thanks!

@justinhauser @karsenthil Thanks so much! We'd love to host you & your HAX community. We don't have a feature that is exactly like Donut but we've seen groups do 'breakout cohorts' on Geneva in a number of ways. If you're interested, our Community team would be more than happy to walk you through this and show you some GenZ-focused communities on Geneva today!

@richzalan Hey Richard, thanks! We're planning to give groups a number of ways to add more customization to Geneva homes over the next few months, starting with elements like a vanity domain, custom emojis, member badges, and more fun stuff that you can use to make your home feel like your own. We're also upgrading some other features, like the member directory and welcome message, to make them even more robust and flexible!

@rightbackatyu ...I'm learning this space, sorry if you will see my response twice. I'm looking for a solution to move a "desktop" community to a mobile version that would feel seamless. I guess you are not at this stage yet.
