About
Built by the person who answers your questions.
I'm Faizan Shaikh, founder & CEO of TribeCrafter, the community platform for people who sell courses, coaching programs and paid memberships. I answer support myself, and a small team builds the product with me.
Talking to me is a free 30-minute call on Google Meet: what you run today, and how it would work on TribeCrafter.
Why I built it
For years I looked after a large BuddyBoss community, Great Big Photography World. It ran on more than 100 plugins and stayed slow even on a dedicated server.
So I built TribeCrafter: feed, groups, courses, events, blog, chat and selling in one platform, with no plugins to keep alive. Great Big Photography World moved on 1 September 2026: 2,314 member accounts, no sign-up emails. How the move went
Starting fresh? You don't need a developer. You set everything up in Studio, our admin app, and I walk you through it. Starting from zero · See Studio

Is it safe to build on TribeCrafter?
It's the right question to ask a newer platform. Here is who stands behind it, and what stays yours whatever happens.
Who stands behind it
- Quvor, building software since 2016TribeCrafter is built and run by Quvor, a product engineering studio in Mumbai that stays with what it builds. It has run a members-only shopping platform in Belgium, with over 200,000 members, since 2020.
- No investors to answer toWe're bootstrapped, so nobody can push us into a quick sale. What we build next comes from the people running communities here.
- Real communities run on it todayGreat Big Photography World moved its 2,314 member accounts here on 1 September 2026. Course creators and coaches run their communities here too; you can read what they say below.
What stays yours, whatever happens
- Your paymentsMembers pay you through your own Stripe account, so your paying members, their subscriptions and your payouts live there, not with us. We take 0% (Stripe's normal fees apply).
- Your member listExport your members as a CSV from Studio whenever you like.
- Your data, kept apartEach community runs on its own database, storage and search, never in a shared pool with other customers'.

What customers say
What has impressed me most about TribeCrafter is not the platform itself, it is the team behind it. Every bug or suggestion we flag gets picked up quickly, sometimes fixed within the day.Jackie, Community Manager at Conscious Breathing Institute
Moving Great Big Photography World off WordPress and onto TribeCrafter was a real leap of faith, and we took it gladly. What used to be a patchwork of plugins is now a platform we can grow with.Domien Van Eynde, Founder, Great Big Photography WorldDisclosure: TribeCrafter's founder looked after their BuddyBoss site for years before TribeCrafter existed.
