Own your community
No, really. Stop paying another company to rent your community and its data. With Keep Community you pay once, no subscription required, and you can keep all your data on your server.
What is Keep Community?
Keep Community is built on top of 37Signals’ popular Campfire. And Campfire is awesome! But, because the 37Signals and the Campfire team wanted it to be self hostable and easy to install, they had to skip some of the basic things an online community platform needs to grow.
Keep Community can add all these missing features to Campfire and more:
-
Email notifications
-
OAuth signup and login
-
Closed signup
-
Subscription and payment integration
-
Members page
-
Public marketing pages
-
Content moderation

Free Slack accounts are capped at 2,000 messages of chat history. And you’ll never be able to afford to pay per user to upgrade. So your community’s biggest strength – its wealth of knowledge – gets deleted faster the more popular your community gets.
Discord is a busily designed mess of a platform that was always only meant for gamers, is totally uncustomizable, lives only inside Discord’s platform, and shows crypto ads next to your community’s content.
Both will always own all your data forever and do whatever they want with it.
With Keep Community you pay once for an unobtrusive, cleanly designed chat community where you own your data and can fully customize your members’ experience. It’s a no brainer.
Ads in your community? Yuck.
Annoying limits on free accounts? Ugh.
