Stop pushing your community between 10 different apps, with different links and logins to get the functionality you want.
Bring these experiences to your community instead! Just create rooms and drag in any audio, video, and text chat features you want. All in one place.

@repreneur for sure! the new Chat app that allows for making a whole room a text chat room is in private beta right now. Reach out to us if you want to be on the list to try it early!

@_carlosdp_ Would love try it out

Garnet is awesome! Communities bounce between too many apps (Discord, Slack, Clubhouse, etc.). The space is due for a big change. Congrats on the launch, Carlos and Gail!

@michelle_lim Thanks! 🙂 Yea, we definitely agree! It's about time we got serious about making tools actually built for this purpose rather than duct-taping together communication apps that were built for other things.

We've built our community in slack (b2b saas founders, 1200 or so) and have always found it difficult to get everyone live to engage. We used other tools like Icebreakers, and zoom meetings but getting our folks to go into each platform was challenging. Really excited to use this. Great work @gail_wilson1 and @_carlosdp_! Setting up my first "stage" now 🚀🚀🚀

Kudos Makers! I claimed my channel. :-) twitch integration will be interesting. Do you think you’ll have IG FB integration too (ie IG TV, FB live) Though there is youtube integration and whatever could be done via IG live could be done via Youtube live i guess... I am looking to organize live video streaming events for community though most of the community “live in” IG/FB universe atm. convincing users to jump platforms is hard... Thanks!

Interesting product. I have two questions though: 1. Who is Garnet for exactly? What type of community can you bring here? 2. How personal can you make your room with the customization process?
Carlos Diaz-Padron
Maker
@rubenwolff thanks for the questions! 1) the idea is to be able to fit to the needs of any community online. Most of these are currently forcing Slack or Discord plus 5 other apps into this purpose. But that comes with a lot of friction because they weren’t really designed to be multi-purpose community tools. Garnet is explicitly built to make it easy to bring members into the space and keep them together! 2) right now, you can choose between a few different room “apps” and some addons that can be composed together like Invite for passcode access, Icebreakers for a random pairing room, etc. Over the next few weeks, we’ll be allowing you to compose multiple apps in a single room!, so you can really make something special! The idea is to get more and more customizable over time, but also make getting started with something that works well easy
