“Our development team is moving fast to provide features to help social content creators take control of their content and capitalize on their brand, independent of the social platform,” said Meschiari. “Our small, focused team has high standards of delivery and will lead the way with innovative features to help social content creators develop followings on self-managed platforms where they make the rules.”
