Founders Circle

The Founders Circle is a select group of early creators helping define the future of participatory social media. You’re not just growing on HotMic — you’re helping build it.

Your benefits

What being a founder unlocks

Founding creators get the tools, economics, and access to grow a community that earns alongside them, and the platform invests behind that growth.

✦ Your founder badge

Featured placement & discovery, with a badge to match.

Founders receive priority placement and discovery advantages inside the app, and your profile, communities, and clips carry the Founder badge: a visible signal that you’re one of the creators defining HotMic.

Premium revenue share, locked in

Founding creators lock in elevated revenue share rates across tokens, subscriptions, video advertising, and brand promotions — for your content and your community.

A seat at the product table

Direct access to the HotMic team and roadmap. Help shape moderation systems, creator tools, monetization, and platform features as we build them.

Marketing investment behind you

HotMic puts real marketing dollars behind your community's events — and the posts you use to promote them. Your events get amplified across the platform so the right people show up.

Premium real estate & in-app promotion

Founders Circle communities get prime placement and heavy promotion across the HotMic app. We invest directly in growing your community, giving early Founders a compounding head-start as the platform scales.

Early access to new features

Founding creators get first access to new monetization features and creator tools — and a voice in how they ship.

Recognized cultural leadership

Founding creators become recognized community and cultural leaders on HotMic — the voices defining what participatory social media looks like.

The long-term opportunity

The ownership of Patreon. The scale of TikTok. Yours.

HotMic combines the loyalty of subscription platforms with the engagement and scale of social video. Communities become long-term ecosystems with recurring participation and monetization, and the strongest of them create new voices, new creators, and new culture. Founders Circle creators are the ones who get there first.
