Substack

Substack is a San Francisco company founded in 2017 by Chris Best, Hamish McKenzie and Jairaj Sethi that gives writers a newsletter, website and subscription business in one account. It handles email delivery, a hosted publication site, comments and Stripe-powered paid subscriptions, so a writer can start for free and charge readers whenever they are ready.

Over time Substack added podcasts, video posts and livestreams, a mobile app where readers follow publications, and a social layer: Notes for short posts, Chat for subscriber communities, and a recommendations network that has become a major source of new subscribers for many writers. Custom domains, sections, imports from other platforms and basic analytics are included. Publishing is free; Substack takes 10% of paid subscription revenue, plus Stripe processing fees.

Substack fits journalists, essayists, researchers and creators who want to build an audience quickly and value the network over control. The 10% fee grows with success, design and SEO options are limited, and the platform's moderation policies and algorithm shape your reach. Paid subscriptions depend on Stripe, so writers in countries Stripe does not serve face extra hurdles. Ghost offers ownership and a flat fee with open-source code, beehiiv adds growth and monetization tools such as an ad network and referral programs, and Kit (formerly ConvertKit) suits creators focused on email marketing and product sales.
