This update wave is about giving creators more room to tell their story and giving supporters a smoother way to find, read, and support the people they follow. The headline feature is long-form articles, a real writing space with drafts, publishing, and a proper reader page. Alongside that, we've rebuilt how booking requests work end to end, made the explore feed easier to browse and easier for search engines to find, and moved all platform email onto more reliable infrastructure. Here's the full rundown.
For Creators
Long-form articles, finally
You can now write full articles on Agaseke using our rich text editor, headings, quotes, links, and embedded images and videos, all in one place. Every published article gets its own public, SEO-friendly page at https://agaseke.me/articles/<slug>, so your writing has a permanent home you can link to from anywhere.
A few details we sweated over:
Cover images for every article, so your work looks good wherever it's shared.
Auto-generated short descriptions that power your article's preview in feeds and in search results, no extra work required.
Custom slugs if you want a cleaner, more memorable URL. If your chosen slug is already taken, we auto-deduplicate it so you're never stuck.
Draft, publish, update
Articles now follow a clear life cycle: you save as a private draft, then hit publish when it's ready. Once an article is live, editing it is possible. Your original publish date stays put, so your article's place in your history (and in feeds) stays accurate even after you go back and fix a typo.
Once published, your article shows up in the explore feed, on your community page, and in the supporter feed, and readers can comment on it and share it directly.
Booking requests, rebuilt
Bookings got a proper pass this update:
Add to calendar — confirmed bookings now come with one-tap links for Google, Yahoo, and Apple/Outlook calendars. These links stick around even after the meeting date has passed, so you've always got a record of what happened and when.
Cancel with one click — you can now cancel a confirmed booking. The booker automatically gets a cancellation email that includes the booking link, so rebooking is one step away.
Cleaner status grouping — cancelled bookings now sit alongside rejected ones under a single "Rejected / Cancelled" section, so your booking list stays easy to scan.
Daily reminders — every morning at 9:00 AM Kigali time (07:00 UTC), both you and the booker get an email reminder (plus an in-app notification) for any booking happening that day. No more missed sessions because a calendar invite got buried.
Earnings, at a glance
Your dashboard now includes "earn" cards that summarize your earnings without digging through separate pages. And if you price your community tiers in a currency different from your account's default, Agaseke now shows a currency toggle and a secondary price input automatically, so a currency mismatch never quietly blocks a supporter from paying you.
For Supporters
A reader experience that works the same everywhere
Wherever you open an article, the public article page, a creator's community page, or the supporter feed; you now get the same clean reader experience, "more from this creator" suggestions, and easy share and referral actions.
A better way to discover creators
The new public explore feed at /explore/posts is built for both browsing and search engines, meaning creators' work is easier to find, on and off Agaseke. It comes with:
A dedicated post detail page with improved SEO metadata, so shared links look better and rank better.
A content-type filter, so you can browse by article or post type instead of scrolling through everything
Comment, follow, and support
You can now comment on articles (and other content), and comment counts show up across feeds and on the reader page, so you can see what's sparking conversation before you click in.
We've also added support (pay) buttons directly on supporter feed and community post cards, so backing a creator you love takes one tap instead of a detour to their profile. Login redirects are clearer, and private content is properly excluded from search indexing.
Thanks for building this with us
Every one of these changes came out of things creators and supporters told us, directly or through how you actually use Agaseke. If you're a creator, this is a good moment to sit down and write your first article, or turn on booking requests if you haven't yet. If you're a supporter, take a scroll through the new explore feed — there's a good chance there's a creator on Agaseke you haven't found yet.
As always, keep the feedback coming. We're building this one update at a time, with you.
