Strivle is live on the App Store.

The native iOS app is out now and you can download it in most of the world today. Europe is in the final approval step and should go live within a day. We will post the moment it does.

Same Strivle you already use on the web, now native and in your pocket. Your feed, live rooms, the leaderboard, and messages.

Download it, set up your profile, and start shipping in public from anywhere.

If you have a minute after, leave a rating. This early, reviews are the single biggest thing that helps more builders find Strivle. Thank you for getting us here.

HUGE day for Strivle today.

We won Product of the Week on TinyLaunch. First place, ahead of a strong field. Thank you to everyone who backed us.

And the Strivle iOS app was just approved by Apple. It goes live on the App Store within 24 hours. The full experience, native and in your pocket: your feed, live rooms, the leaderboard, and messages.

We built Strivle to reward the people who actually ship.

Today Strivle shipped.

Thank you for building in public with us. This is the start.

Apple rejected Strivle on the app store because we didn't have "Sign in with Apple" 😭

Resubmitted with the update, we'll see in 48 hours

STRIVLE IS IN 1ST PLACE ON TINYLAUNCH 🚀

Strivle is sitting #1 with 33 upvotes. Second place is at 21 and catching up fast.

If you haven't upvoted yet, now's the moment. Every upvote in the next few hours decides whether we hold #1 or get overtaken.

Takes 10 seconds. Massive impact for what we're building here.

Let's lock this in 🥂

Strivle just got a real algorithm.

Until today the feed was simple: newest post on top. That rewards whoever posts the most, not whoever posts the best. So we rebuilt it from scratch.

Your For You feed now ranks by real engagement, with diminishing returns so no single signal can be farmed. A bookmark counts for more than a like. A real reply or repost counts for more than a passing tap. Quality wins, not volume.

Every new post gets a fair shot to be seen and earn its reach, no matter how many followers you have. Reach is earned here, never bought. There are no paid boosts on Strivle and there never will be.

And it cannot be gamed. You cannot repost yourself to the top. You cannot bump an old post by commenting on it. Bot likes are worthless.

You will also see what your network is actually doing. When someone you follow replies or reposts, it shows up in your feed with full context.

This is the start of the fairest feed in the builder world. More coming.

@sebastian Decided to share. You have done an important thing to bring us small timers all together, felt I should help shouting at the void.

WE JUST HIT 1,000 USERS 🎉

8 days ago this didn't exist

Today there are 1,000 founders on Strivle.

This is honestly CRAZY. I built this last weekend because I was bored, fully expecting nothing to come from it, and now there are 1,000 of you here building, posting, helping each other, telling your friends about it. Watching this community come together has been one of the best weeks of my life.

To every single one of you posting your progress, dropping feedback in my DMs, sharing the platform without me asking, defending it in Reddit comments, just being here, thank you. This is your community as much as it's mine and I mean that. None of this happens without you.

Here's where we're going from here.

The next few weeks are going to be massive. Mobile app dropping on the App Store soon so you can post from anywhere. Public profile pages so your work shows up on Google when people search you. More verification integrations beyond Stripe so pre-revenue founders, mobile founders, and people using other payment processors can all be seen for what they ship. Bookmarks, better DMs, smarter notifications. A real Signal score so the ranking reflects more than just MRR.

We've got TinyLaunch live right now and Product Hunt right after, going for #1 of the day. If we hit it, this thing goes to a whole different level.

But the part I'm most excited about isn't the features or the milestones. It's that we're building the place builders should've had a long time ago. Somewhere your work gets seen on merit. Somewhere the loudest voice doesn't win. Somewhere being early actually matters because the network you build here will compound for years.

You're early. You'll always have been early. The first 1,000 on a platform like this become the names everyone references later.

Let's keep going. Next stop, 10,000.

Heads up. We're going live on TinyLaunch in 3 hours.

If you're around and want to throw an upvote our way when it drops, it would help a lot. Early upvotes decide how high we rank, and a strong ranking means a bunch more founders find Strivle today.

No pressure if you can't make it, totally cool either way. I'll drop the link here the second we're live.

Let's see what happens.

Strivle is coming to the App Store.

I just submitted the iOS app to Apple for review. The whole thing, native and in your pocket. Your feed, live rooms, and the leaderboard ranked by verified revenue, not followers.

Live soon. I will post the link the moment it is approved.

Tomorrow we're launching Strivle on TinyLaunch.

This is the moment we get to push past the early phase and bring in a real wave of founders. If you're on the platform already and want to help, going to need everyone to upvote at launch tomorrow. The more upvotes early, the higher we rank, the more new builders we pull in.

7 days ago this was a side project. Tomorrow we make it impossible to ignore. Let's get the OG cohort to show up.

I'll drop the link as soon as we're live 🔥

A few new things at Strivle today.

You can now reorder your projects on your profile. Drag them into whatever order tells your story best, so the work you care about most sits up top.

The landing page now shows live signup activity, so anyone checking us out can see the community growing in real time.

And the big one: a Strivle mobile app is on the way. We've got the full experience running on iOS, native feed, light and dark, the works. We'll let you know the moment it's in your hands.

More soon. Keep building.

Big build day at Strivle. Here's what we shipped:

Links come alive. Paste a link anywhere in the feed, DMs, or rooms and it turns into a rich preview card, with proper blue styling in the composer and clean linkifying everywhere.

Profiles leveled up. New location field, GitHub and website links for everyone, a redesigned builder-card header, and tap-to-zoom on avatars and banners. Adding a project in onboarding is now optional, so you can get in faster.

A better feed. It's now a set of distinct builder cards that show what each person is building, plus quote reposts and a Share button on every post.

Rooms and DMs got social. Emoji picker, @mentions, a redesigned room view, and a smoother reaction picker.

Notifications that go back. They now paginate and load as you scroll, so nothing gets buried.

Also: a volume slider on the video player and a big SEO pass so Strivle shows up properly when it's shared and searched.

More soon. Keep building.

Thinking of adding an Events page to Strivle.

Idea: every hackathon, builder meetup, demo day, founder dinner happening globally, all in one feed. Map view so you can see what's near you. And the part I'm most excited about, you'd see which Strivle users are going to each event before you RSVP.

The IRL extension of the network. You meet other founders here, then meet up at events in real life, then come back and post about it.

Would you actually use this? Drop a comment if yes or no, and what kind of events you'd want surfaced.

A quick update on what we shipped today on Strivle.

Strivle is faster now. The feed, your messages, your rooms. They open faster.

Messaging got better. Typing indicators in DMs and rooms. Delete any message you send.

You can now add Strivr to your home screen straight from your browser. No App Store needed. It opens fullscreen and runs like a real app, on both iPhone and Android.

Reposts have a proper home in the feed now. And tapping Home brings you the newest posts.

Plus a long list of fixes you'll feel even if you don't see them.

This is just the start. More soon.
