One place for your street team: graphics, marketing copy, tasks, points, rewards, and a team you can trust with exactly as much as you decide to give them. No shared passwords. No spreadsheet.
◆ Built so points can never be tied to a review. Your books stay safe.
Signings, conventions, and book festivals. Build a squad of readers who share your lineup, push ticket links, and turn up early to help — with a countdown calendar built backwards from your event date, and volunteer shifts people can claim themselves.
◆ Every author on your lineup confirms their own materials. You can't tick that box for them.
Join your favorite author's squad. Earn Hype for the posts you're already making, then spend it on ARCs, signed copies, merch, and whatever else they've put on the shelf. Free, always — you never pay to be in a squad.
◆ Wishlist rewards mean nobody ever needs your address.
Every point is a line in an append-only ledger. Mistakes get corrected with a reversal entry that sits right next to the original. Members see their whole history. Nothing disappears.
The database rejects updates and deletes on the ledger table. Not a setting an admin can flip — a constraint.
Each entry seals the one before it. Tampering with history breaks the chain and shows.
A ledger the member can't see isn't accountability. Everyone sees their own, in full, always.
Authors set the values. Members claim tasks, submit proof, and the Hype lands in their ledger.
Pull from the author's asset library. Caption and disclosure tag come attached.
The one that actually moves the needle. Worth the most, for a reason.
Goodreads, StoryGraph, wherever your people are watching.
Newsletter subscribers tracked to the member who sent them.
Screenshot the receipt, or share the link. Author's call.
Credited when their application is accepted, not when it's sent.
This is the one thing we won't let an author configure. Amazon prohibits incentivized reviews; authors have lost titles and readers have lost accounts over exactly this. So the schema has no review task type, and any task mentioning reviews, ratings, or star counts is held before it can go live. Read all you like, review because you want to — it will never be worth a point here.
Every squad carries a Trust Score built entirely from its fulfillment record. The author can't edit it, hide it, or reset it — it's derived from timestamps, not typed in. Overdue rewards trigger escalating reminders, then show up here.
Running out of stock happens. Going quiet on your readers is the thing this is built to catch.
Authors name their own tiers and set their own thresholds. These are the defaults you start with.
You're in. Asset library, squad chat, and every open task.
Early cover reveals and first pick on ARC rounds.
Signed copies, merch drops, and a say in what ships next.
Named in the acknowledgements. The only reward that outlives the book.
Street teams have always run on trust and DMs, with your home address sitting in a stranger's spreadsheet. Not here.
The best way a prize reaches you: the author buys it from your public wishlist and the retailer ships it. They never see your address, and neither do we.
Nothing here asks for your name, phone, or address. If an author posts something themselves, you sort it in a private thread that deletes itself 60 days after the last reply.
Add your birthday for the squad to celebrate. We never ask for the year and there's nowhere to put it.
Not a support ticket. Erase your profile and your whole account yourself, whenever you want.
No explicit content is hosted here. Authors who write spicy link out to their own storage, clearly labelled, your choice to click.
Every account, every squad, no exceptions.
You choose the type when you create the squad. Everything after that — the calendar, the tasks, the folders, the channels — arrives already set up for it.
The whole thing in one place, inside the squad. Nobody is asked for a review at any point, and the system will not let you ask.
Advance copies are for a book that is finished. Beta reading is for one that is not, and it needs different tools: a manuscript that changes between readers, notes on structure rather than reactions, and rounds rather than a single hand-off. We are building it next, founding members get it first, and their feedback shapes it.
Event squads promote other people's books, so every author on the lineup confirms their own materials can be shared before a single graphic of theirs can be uploaded. The organizer cannot tick that box for them.

We are letting a small number of authors and book event planners in early. You get it cheap and shape what gets built. We get somebody honest telling us what is broken. Both rounds are open for applications now.
What we ask: an hour a week, and blunt beats kind.
Apply to the alphaWhat we ask: twenty minutes a month.
Apply to the betaBoth rounds get the same deal: a year free, then $75 a year and $10 per extra squad, for as long as you stay. Standard pricing is $200 and $80. Readers never pay for anything. Find a squad.
Squads are created by verified authors and by book event organizers. Pay yearly for $200 and save a third. Seven days free either way — card required, and we email you three days before it's charged.
Spots are limited. The rate above is locked for as long as you stay subscribed, so if prices go up later, yours does not move.
Nothing is charged during the alpha and we do not ask for a card. When we start billing, we will tell you well before unless you cancel first — one click in your portal, and we email you a reminder three days before. After that the year is non-refundable, and it renews annually until you switch auto-renewal off.
Set it up this afternoon. Your readers were going to post about the book anyway — this is where they get counted for it.
