The mission

We serve indies — and the brilliant people behind them.

The global home for independent agencies: built to help you grow, tell your story, and reach the people who matter. Whatever your size, whatever your scope.

Every membership

5 ways we've got you.

Cover you, coach you, community, celebrate you, connect you — all of it included, whatever your size or scope.

CoverageWe cover you.

The platform tells indie stories — and yours is one of them. Video-first profiles, your news and wins, and shows built around your thinking.

CoachingWe coach you.

Indie QuickCoach and 15-minute sprints, there whenever you want a second set of eyes. Your work, sharper.

CommunityYour people.

Indie Commons — our own community platform, built for indies from the ground up. 360+ agency members trading real answers and wins. Ask anything, never go it alone.

CelebrationWe celebrate you.

Top 40 Awards, Show Off, the Leadership Summit, Cannes — where your work and your people get their moment.

ConnectionsWe connect you.

Warm intros to brands who need what you do, and vetted Preferred Partners when you want backup.

Frictionless by design

Easy to join. Easy to keep.

Membership runs quietly in the background, so it stays effortless.

Magic-link sign-in

Everyone at your agency signs in with their own work email. We send a magic link, they tap it, they're in. That simple.

We come to you

Show ideas and story angles, pulled from what you already post. The heavy lifting's on us.

We keep you visible

We track what you're already sharing and surface what's worth telling. Your presence, handled.

Questions

The short version.

Not owned by a publicly-traded holding company or consultancy — any percentage. Privately-held networks, PE-backed shops, and agencies with a parent outside this industry all count. Size doesn't matter; independence does.
Agencies start at $695/year for 1–10 people and scale by team size. Solo tiers run $180–$599. Your rate locks the day you join and never goes up.
No — we cover the whole indie world. But members fund the platform, so members come first: priority coverage, plus tools, community, and awards. We work for members, not pageviews.
As little as you want. We come to you with show ideas and pull angles from your LinkedIn. No second job.
No. We complement them — extra expert eyes and more places to show up. Your team still drives strategy.
No — we're global, aiming for a 50/50 split between North America and the rest of the world. Wherever you are, just hit Join: Stripe shows and charges your local currency automatically at checkout, and you're in instantly. No invoices, no back-and-forth.
Strategically. AI helps us stay organized and powers Indie QuickCoach, but humans make every editorial call. We've opted out of all model training, and your project data is deleted when we're done.

Come build with us.

Lock your rate, bring your whole team, and grow with people in your corner.
