Stridee is built with this mindset: - **Own your contacts**: Your members are YOUR customers. Export your member list anytime, send newsletters, build relationships outside the platform. - **Monetize your community**: Create paid memberships, charge for events, and build a sustainable club. - **Connect with sponsors**: We help you find and connect with brands looking to sponsor running clubs and events. - **Free routes for all**: Share GPX files with your community without asking them to pay for a subscription. - **Capture the moments**: Upload photos and videos from your events so participants can relive and share their experience. ## When to Choose Strava Strava might be a better fit if: - **You run your club purely for fun**: If you're not thinking about memberships, payments, or growing sustainably, Strava's simplicity works. - **You need help with discovery**: Strava has a large built-in audience. We don't help much with promoting your events—you need to bring your own community.
