The first threads set the pattern.
Gibly is at the beginning. We’re inviting a small circle of independent creators to help decide how it should work, before the platform is built rather than after.
- Time to apply
- About three minutes
- Cost to apply
- None
- Commitment
- None until you choose one
Help write the rules you’ll work under.
Tell us how you’d really use it
Which partners you’d want, what you’d bundle, what would make you trust a stranger’s integration. Real constraints, not survey answers.
Test the terms before they’re fixed
How splits are agreed, what a fair platform fee looks like, what “verified” should require. You see proposals first and can say no.
Get a first look as each part opens
Founding members are the first people we’ll invite into each capability as it becomes usable.
Tell us about what you’re building.
Three short sections. There are no trick questions and no wrong answers.
What happens next
- You apply
Your details are saved and used only to review your application and reply to you.
- We read it
Every application is read by a person. We reply by email.
- We talk
If there’s a fit, the next step is a conversation about your product and what would help it.
We collect only what’s on this form. See the Privacy Policy for how it’s handled.
Fair questions.
Read all questionsWhat does founding participation involve?
Conversations, mostly. We want to understand how you’d use a platform like this, test proposed rules with you before they’re fixed, and give you a first look at each part as it opens.
It isn’t an investment, and it doesn’t give Gibly any stake in your product.
What happens after I apply?
We read every application and reply by email. If there’s a fit, the next step is a conversation about your product and what kind of collaboration would help it.
What does it cost? Is membership free?
Applying to the Founding Circle is free, and there is currently no fee for taking part in it.
The platform itself hasn’t launched, so there’s no membership to pay for yet. Fees, rates and any paid plans have not been set. Founding members will see proposed terms before anyone is asked to commit to them.
Can I apply if my product hasn’t launched?
Yes. A serious product in progress is welcome. Tell us where it stands in the application.
What do you do with the details in my application?
We use them to review your application and to contact you about it. We only send updates if you opt in separately. The Privacy Policy explains this in more detail.
Not ready to apply? Ask first.
If something here is unclear, we’d rather hear the question than lose the conversation.
