Become a
Polynaut

We are building the Polynaut program for members who really love Polywork and want to have direct influence over how it evolves and help us get the word out there. We would not be here today without the support of our amazing community who have played a central role in shaping Polywork, our product focus, narrative and nurturing inclusive and diverse communities on the platform.

How it works

Be a Polyworker!

If you’re not already a Polywork member, we’ll help you get onboarded. Build out your own profile with at least 10 highlights and keep your profile updated throughout the year as you work on new projects.

Collaborate

Connect with new people on the platform through our Find Collaborators feature. Could be podcasting, investing, collaborating on a side project, or any number of other things. Choose your own adventure!

Bring your community along

Please invite friends or colleagues who you think would love to join Polywork.

Promote Polywork

Help promote new Polywork features, product announcements, and your own Polywork posts via your preferred social channel (we love Twitter!) or wherever your community is online (GitHub, dev.to etc).

Product feedback

While we want you to be our biggest fans, we also want you to be our best critics. You’ll have access to early-release features and provide feedback to help us fine-tune and make Polywork great.

Focus on what you care about

Dive into any issue of particular passion with the team to bring a fresh perspective on new products and policies (for example: protecting the integrity of the platform as we scale, premium features to add, API strategy etc).

Polynaut Program Rewards

Early feature access

Polynauts will be the very first to preview and use new product features. Your feedback will help us shape the future of Polywork.

Direct access to the Polywork team

Collaborate with the Polywork leadership team via the Polynaut Slack Channel and regular feedback and exploration calls with internal team members.

Featured profile and Community recognition

Polynauts will have visibility on Polywork as Community leaders, be able to post featured opportunities, be featured on our Blog and Social channels, and have prioritized verification on the platform.

Swag Swag Swag!

Who doesn’t love some swag?! We’ve got all kinds of fun Polywork goods ready to be sent your way.

Donation on your behalf

When you join we'll make a $500 donation to a charity of your choice.
