About us
Substack lets writers connect with their audience on their own terms and earn money doing it. We make it simple for writers to publish to an email list that they own, get discovered on the web, and charge for subscriptions. More than 500,000 people pay to subscribe to writers across the Substack network, and the top writers make millions of dollars a year. Substack’s model depends on the success of writers using Substack – we only make money when they do. “Substack makes it dead simple to start a newsletter and get paid for it.” – Judd Legum, author of Popular Information "Substack gives me a way to connect with my audience on my own terms.” – Lyz Lenz, author of God Land and Men Yell At Me Make something that matters Great writing is valuable. It respects readers' time, their intelligence, and their trust. It helps us make sense of and change the culture we live in. At Substack, we're building a business model that enables great writing to thrive. Learn more about our opportunity and mission. We are a small but growing team, and there is more to build than we could ever imagine. That’s why we need you.

Every person at the company participates in customer support. We do this to build empathy with our users and enable us to build better products. We believe that a diverse team will help us build a product that best serves the needs of a wildly diverse ecosystem of writers. So whatever your background or perspective, we’d welcome your input to help build the best possible version of Substack.

Big news: live video is now available in the Substack app. While live video is available on other platforms, it feels different on Substack. Here, creators aren’t just broadcasting to a mass of followers; they’re intimately connecting with the community that supports their work. Creators can deconstruct their essays, answer burning questions, debate hot topics, host cooking demos, share styling tips, and maybe even take us hiking. And you, as a subscriber, will always have a front-row seat. Over the coming days, an impressive array of creators will be pioneering this new feature and offering subscribers insider access to live musical performances, spicy cooking sessions, and gossipy conversations. Here’s a taste of what’s coming. Download the Substack app now so you don't miss out. *Dates and times are subject to change, so be sure to subscribe to these folks to stay updated! https://lnkd.in/ewiqerC4
