A members-only site your members actually log into.

Floot is an AI app builder that makes members-only websites with sign-up, approval, a member directory and paid dues, so your association runs its own member site.

What you get

Member sites need more than pages: sign-up, approval, profiles, a directory and, often, dues. Floot builds the whole thing from your description, with accounts and a database included.

  1. 01

    Sign-up and approval

    People apply, an admin approves, and only members see the members area.

  2. 02

    Profiles and directory

    Members fill in a profile; others can search the directory.

  3. 03

    Paid memberships

    Annual or monthly dues through Floot Payments, paid out via Stripe.

  4. 04

    Updates that reach people

    Email and push notifications for news and events.

  5. 05

    Listings

    Members can post listings, such as a local business directory with member accounts.

From people building on Floot

“There are lots of solutions available, but none of them do what you want, so you need to string a lot together. It was easier and less cluttered with Floot.”

Real estate brokerage owner

“Floot allows me to build software for ourselves. We pieced together lots of software over the years, and we’ve been able to build and replace it. The first thing was replacing a form for collecting info: built in 10 minutes.”
