Q: More questions
1) Analytics - we need some analytics to see who clicked, who visited, from where etc. Or at least add Google Analytics, usermaven etc.
2) Domain - we need a custom domain so we can actually shot Roundup on our subdomain.
3) Workspaces - it would be great having workspace so we can split our products, teams, clients into some spaces. Or have some labels or sorting feature.
4) User access - same as workspaces. We need some user rights.
5) Marketplaces - oh that would be awesome of having a marketplace where user could potentially publish their own roundup and we could actually get a commission from sale. somehow

Edited Apr 5, 2025A: 1 - Analytics are at the bottom of the product stack. It will come eventually but we're focused on the top of the stack first, creating the content. A lot of people publish to WordPress too so they can manage analytics there if this is a top priority for you, but analytics will come in time.
2 - Will consider it, but you should get a blog. It's free and you'll have your domain.
3 - Low priority - We'll add multi-user access accounts at some point for teams and agencies, but enabling Workspaces is overkill for this product.
4 - Answered above ^
5 - You can already do that. Just connect one of the affiliate programs to us like Amazon Associates, or drop in an Affiliate Link when you import a product. You'll get a commission when readers click through and buy.

On point 5 I'm lost. honestly I apologise for that. How does that work? Could you explain further? Does that mean if I connect Amazon Associates to MY RoundUp account and then somebody clicks through and purchase the product on Amazon then I get commission right? But what I mentioned was that I would love to get paid through commission for promoting someone else's Round Up.

I mean like if we have a sort of marketplace where every Roundup user could publish their own Roundup then we can promote it and get paid our commission. This was my point...The reason why is that I might have a limited account like Tier 1 so I can promote other's Roundups. Or other users have published better products ie. Roundups so I can promote those as well.
I get what you mean now! You can't do that today and I think there are already influencer marketplaces out there that could facilitate this. For example, on Fivver you might have "I'll promote your Roundup for $100". I think we might approach it a little differently than that.
What we here is from product brands is "How can we get users to generate and share Roundups with our products?" So, we're thinking about a Sponsored Roundup program where commissions could be earned for just including products in a Roundup and get AI to show bias towards it.
