Run your community without all the noise
Existing platforms no longer work for communities. Commly is building a new one where you can run your community your way, for free.
Free to start
Start and run your community for free, with everything you need included and no subscription.
No noise or chaos
No algorithms deciding what your members see, and no random content or ads.
Built for engagement
Structured discussions that can be picked up at any time, not lost in fast-moving chat.
Everything works the way it should
Everything is designed to keep your community focused, organized, and easy to run, so your members stay engaged and you stay in control.
No noise from outside your community
Communities aren’t competing for attention. Each community is separate from the others, with no algorithms limiting what your members see in a shared feed. Your members stay focused on your community.
Conversations that don’t get lost
Conversations don’t disappear in fast-moving chat. Structured discussions stay visible and easy to follow, so members can keep up and take part. Group chat is there when you need it.
You stay in control
You decide how your community is set up and runs. You choose how discussions are structured, what areas exist, and who can view, join, post, comment, or access different parts of the community.
Monetize on your terms
Keep your community free, or offer paid access, content, spaces, or accept donations when you’re ready. You decide how and when to introduce monetization.
Built-in tools
Everything you need to run a community, in one place. No need to piece together tools or manage multiple platforms.
Choose your community type
Whether you want a dynamic social feed community or next-gen forum community, you can choose the one that works for your community.
Organized into spaces
Structure your community into spaces by topic, so discussions and other content types stay organized and access can be controlled.
Discussions
Create posts, start conversations, and keep everything organized in one place. Members can easily follow, join in, and return to discussions over time.
Different spaces for different needs
Create spaces for discussions, announcements, resources, questions, or anything else your community needs.
Privacy & Access
Control who can view and join your community, with options from hidden and invite-only to fully public access, depending on your community.
Moderation
Tools to manage content, handle reports, and keep your community running smoothly as it grows.
Events
Create and share events inside your community, bringing members together around what’s happening.
Monetization
