We all had those conversations as kids — "how much would you need to eat that?" That same energy exists in streaming, but donations right now are just... tips. You send money, streamer says thanks, that's it.
I wanted to make every donation actually mean something. So I built Vanity Fair — streamers create challenges, viewers fund them collectively, streamer completes it live and posts proof.
Test mode, can join and enjoy. Need feedback
I'm looking for a co-founder who can help and has an idea of how to attract streamers. I think it's a self-promoting product, challenges + streamers. A combination that goes viral on its own
The challenge + streamer combo is a clever growth loop — viral by design. The hardest part is usually making the first set of streamers trust the platform enough to promote it. Have you thought about how you'll position this to get that initial creator buy-in? That's usually where these platforms win or lose early.
great idea tbf, but cant streamers just ask for a certain amount and say they will do the challenge after they reach that amount, and then never do the challenge? this is my concern
The core mechanic is genuinely interesting — donation + accountability creates a feedback loop most tip-based platforms don't have. The real growth challenge here is the cold start: streamers won't use it if there's no viewer base, and viewers won't engage if there are no streamers. Which side are you trying to seed first, and what's your plan to get the first 10 streamers actually using it?
