Wow, this looks super dope. I really consider using your tool for the https://tokenhunt.club community. We currently use Social Tokens, but I can see how NFT-gated access actually makes more sense.
?makers I also wonder what's the best scenario to integrate Highlight.xyz with our private community app built on Bubble.io?
@nathaniel_emodi the app is designed to help community members build in public and share their progress both within and outside the community. So everyone can view shared projects, but only token holders can actually create and manage them.
Hey everyone! I’m Nat Emodi, cofounder. Along with our team, I’m pumped to share Highlight with you all today and get your feedback. Thanks to Chris for hunting us!
Right now it’s clear NFTs can offer a powerful model to build and reward a community, but the tools to do this are piecemeal and require a good amount of technical know-how to use and stitch together.
Highlight is the product of hundreds of conversations with mainstream creators, music artists, and brands, many of whom are excited by Web3 but remain at a distance for fear of technical complexity or fan frustration.
This is why we created Highlight. It’s an end-to-end toolkit for you to bring web3 community membership and rewards to your fanbase, with no crypto experience required. It is designed from the ground up to be the most effective on-ramp for any fanbase or subculture to meaningful web3 ownership.
With Highlight, anyone can mint NFTs that help recognize, reward, and engage your top fans. Beyond minting, we provide the tools to create a beautiful custom-branded home for your token-holders, with rich integrations that offer ongoing utility and exclusive access.
In our beta, we’ve been working with established music artists like Moon Boots, City of the Sun, Futurebirds, and more who are stoked about Highlight because it helps them launch a token-gated community with easy fan onboarding (just email + credit card), real utility & gated content, and consumer-grade tools to manage it. Within their communities, artists are sharing first listens of new music, unreleased recordings of live performances, advice to aspiring musicians, and a lot more.
We’ve designed Highlight to be easy, to be powerful, and to be fun. Launching your community, from deploying your custom smart contract to posting token-gated content or utility, takes less than 5 minutes and requires no technical knowledge.
And while accessibility has been our priority, Highlight has been carefully designed for web3, from creator-owned smart contracts to non-custodial wallets to auto-created OpenSea collections.
We have lots more in store but for now are excited to hear your questions and feedback!
PS: we've created a special free NFT today just for Product Hunters. It gives access to Highlight Club, our own community, where we share company updates, cool merch, and more. Only 2,000 available here: https://club.highlight.xyz/claim...
@abasa we don't currently support existing tokens or ERC20 or 721s, but are considering all of those needs for our roadmap. What would be your advice for prioritizing them?
@charleyma Great question! We’re excited to be building on Polygon right now since it’s very fast, inexpensive, lower carbon footprint, and vibrant developer ecosystem. That said, we believe in a multi-chain future and will look to our creators and the broader crypto ecosystem for feedback on other chains we should support.

On the demo community, it says you have to have the "friends and family" token to view anything (discord, shop link etc) but I can't see a link/CTA to get access to these. What would the benefit of hiding a shop link anyway, surely you want people to buy the NFTs
@colinmcdermott@nathaniel_emodi Nat, I hit your link and minted Highlight Club Product Hunters but noticed that there is also a PH Playground Edition which has more utility. When you mint, does it randomly select one of the two or was PH PE set aside for certain people on Product Hunt? By the way, it's a very cool platform.
@colinmcdermott@scottwwilliams Nope, we have a "Playground" tier that is sold out but gives access to NFT drops, early features, prizes and more

@nathaniel_emodi Okay great, but I just wanted to see a working demo... which is the whole point of a demo, is it not? When I click your link I get "This Page Isn’t Available"
I LOVE this! From next month I’m shipping a project a month for a year. One of those projects involves equity sharing. As a no-code maker I knew this was something I was going to have to research! You just saved me the job! Favourited for later 😍
