What is Thinkific?

Substack was founded in 2017 by Chris Best (former chief technology officer of messaging app Kik), former journalist and Tesla alum Hamish McKenzie, and developer Jairaj Sethi. Substack introduced paid podcasts with the launch of a tool for audio publishing in 2019. In 2020, Substack introduced group publishing tools, allowing multiple writers to collaborate on a publication.
