Guild is an app for professional groups, networks, organisations, and communities. Users include professional associations, charities, consultants, publishers, universities and agencies across all sectors.
Guild is an app for professional groups, networks, organisations, and communities who want the advantages of messaging - ease of use, immediacy, intimacy, engagement - but who also care about proper privacy, quality, legal compliance, and professional standards of support and service. It is as easy to use as WhatsApp but advertising-free, and GDPR compliant.
Your community will benefit from:
*Elegant user experience* - simple, elegant design; mobile-first; service and support; custom branding
*High levels of professional conduct* - moderation features; professional profiles so users are `present`, accountable and can connect with others
*Data protection* - GDPR compliant, you control your data
Guild is based in the UK but we serve customers all over the world. Currently we have communities based in Europe, Australia, the US and Africa.
You can see all our case studies at https://guild.co/blog/tag/case-studies/ - we've helped charities to coordinate their volunteer networks and board members, universities to build alumni communities, and entire industries (particularly in the PR, comms and events sectors) to thrive during the pandemic from spring 2020).
Your community on Guild benefits from a wider network of professional communities allowing you to easily connect and collaborate with peers. Easy to use and mobile-first, Guild's user experience is familiar like a consumer messaging app, but purpose-built for professionals and businesses. You can create custom-branded communities, where you own your own data which you can analyse through dedicated admin and analytics features.
