This product update looks and feels a bit different than usual, because it is.

Yesterday, we hosted our first-ever Summer Release Event. Thousands of you joined us live as we introduced the next era of beehiiv to the world.

And based on the overwhelming feedback, I think we nailed it 🎯.

We covered a lot yesterday, so consider this a recap of everything we announced. It’s all live in-platform, and I can’t wait to see what you build.

Welcome to the all-new beehiiv 🐝.

Audience ownership has always been at the heart of what we’re building at beehiiv.

Your newsletter gives you a direct relationship with your readers. Community takes that one step further by giving readers a place to connect and build deeper relationships on a platform that’s owned by you, not faceless algorithms.

And when you bring the right people together, the community itself becomes part of the value you provide.

Whether they’re united by a shared love of design, startups, or even the World Cup, human connection is more important than ever. And starting today, you can foster those connections on beehiiv.

Let me show you how it works using my new community for Big Desk Energy.

You can create a free community open to everyone, or a paid community that requires a subscription to access.

Some quick math: a newsletter with 10,000 readers, a $20/mo membership, and a 3% free-to-paid conversion rate would net $72,000/yr in revenue.

Next, you can seed your community with the content your audience already loves. Your posts and podcasts sync in real time, giving members something to engage with from day one.

Then, make it your own. This is YOUR community: customize the design and overall experience to match your unique aesthetic.

That branding carries through to your own Community app, giving your audience a familiar place to return to again and again. Staying top of mind and cutting through the noise just got a whole lot easier.

When you’re ready to launch, invite your existing contacts to join. They’ll land directly in the community feed, the central hub for content, conversations, and everything happening in your community.

Members can share text, images, and audio, with video coming soon. They can also comment, reply, react, and repost, turning the feed into an active, ongoing conversation.

You can also create custom channels for more focused conversations. If you’ve used Slack or Discord, it’ll feel instantly familiar. For Big Desk Energy, I created channels for #Hiring, #SF, #NYC, and #LA.

And because every newsletter post or podcast episode can sync directly to your community, each new release becomes a conversation for your members to join.

Every member has their own profile, and you can follow the people you want to hear more from to personalize your feed.

We also built a complete messaging suite, so members can connect through direct messages or spin up group chats.

As your community grows, keeping conversations healthy and on-topic becomes increasingly important. That’s why we built native moderation tools that make it easy to identify and remove bad actors.

And because analytics are central to everything we do, you’ll have a clear view of member engagement, community health, and revenue every step of the way.

The words as text: what a screen reader can follow, and all there is when images don't load.
