Instance
Your branded community app, owned end to end
Instance gives businesses and creators a branded community app on their own domain, with member accounts, payments, roles, chat, voice, storefronts, push, email, moderation, and a programmable Bot API in one system. Members can discover paid access, buy with Stripe, and receive the right role instantly. Operators keep the customer relationship and can automate the community through plain-language assistants and bots, without handing control to a rented social platform.
Most community businesses are built on borrowed infrastructure. The platform owns the account, the notification channel, the billing path, and often the customer relationship. Instance is built around the opposite premise: the community should be an owned business asset.
Each Instance runs as a branded app on its own domain. Members can see the community before signing up, purchase access through Stripe, receive roles instantly, and use chat, voice, media, storefronts, push notifications, and email in one place.
Automation is part of the operating model. The assistant and Bot API can manage members, channels, products, announcements, webhooks, moderation, and other workflows. Operators can define country bans, investigate persistent leak accounts, and turn plain-language policies into actions.
Instance is designed for creators, educators, agencies, operators, clubs, SaaS teams, and paid communities that want direct control over membership, monetization, and reach. Applications are open at tryinstance.com.
We would value feedback on where owned community infrastructure matters most in your business.
