Private-label monetization tools for the world’s top talent --- YOUR BRAND. YOUR DATA. YOUR RULES. Creators are driving billions of dollars of subscription revenue on platforms that are simply not creator-first. These platforms give the creator no control or ownership of their data/content and constantly change the rules in their favor. Creators make these platforms explode, but then are forced to pay further to engage their fans and followers. COY Creator is a business-in-a-box where creators, who do not have teams or tech talent, can manage and monetize their likeness/content across all channels and platforms. We partner with top talent to launch comprehensive fan monetization tools and services on their own sites and profiles — no more being a slave to the algorithm. www.coycreator.com is the first product incubated in TMW Capital’s venture studio, TMW Labs.

Due to the shift towards re-opening the economy in TX, we unfortunately had to wind down the program. All of our amazing volunteers needed to re-focus on their day jobs and families. However, we are so proud of what this team accomplished and hope we gave a couple restaurants a chance to survive and put a smile on a few healthcare heroes faces. --7396 MEALS DELIVERED --45 DIFFERENT AMAZING LOCAL ATX RESTAURANTS --RAISED ALMOST $82K FROM 216 DONORS.
