## Category comparison

| Question | Fanful | Typical peers |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Primary job | Owned creator operating system | Usually one slice: store, newsletter, course, link hub, or community |
| Best buyer | Creators who sell more than one format | Teams already standardized on a category-specific SaaS |
| Fan identity | Shared account across purchases, memberships, lessons, rooms, and comments | Often fragmented by app or integration |
| Migration posture | Importer-first roadmap and transparent switch guides | Export quality varies by vendor |
| Agent access | Roadmap assumes agents as a fourth surface beside web, iOS, and Android | Usually optimized for human dashboards first |
