How creators use a voting board to pick their next video

Use a permanent voting board so fans suggest and vote on your next video. No polls that disappear—one link, real stats, and subscribers in your dashboard.

You want to make what your audience actually wants—but running a poll in a story or a tweet means results vanish in a day. A voting board gives you one permanent place where fans suggest ideas, vote on what's next, and you see the numbers that matter.

The creator use case

Put your board link in your description, link-in-bio, or end screen. Fans land on one page: they can add ideas (e.g. "Deep dive on X" or "Interview with Y"), vote on existing ones, and hit "Notify me" to get updates. No accounts, no friction.

See what's winning at a glance

Your dashboard shows total votes, idea counts, and subscriber growth. You can tag ideas, mark status (planned, filming, posted), and post announcements when something ships. The board updates in real time so returning visitors always see the latest.

Why it beats one-off polls

Social polls are tied to a single post that scrolls away. You can't build a backlog or compare what people wanted last month to this month. A board keeps every idea and vote, so you get a real backlog and real stats—and you can grow your list with the same link.

Light or dark, one link

Set your board to light or dark theme in the dashboard so it fits your brand. One URL gives your audience vote, updates, and the option to subscribe—no extra tools or scattered posts.

FAQ

Do fans need to log in to vote?
No. Voting is anonymous. We use IP and browser fingerprinting so the same person can't upvote the same idea multiple times from one device.
Can I export my subscriber list?
Yes. Subscribers who click "Notify me" on your board are stored per board. You can export them as CSV from your dashboard.
Where should I put my board link?
Link-in-bio, video description, end screens, and community posts all work. One link stays the same while you add new ideas and ship content.
