Rationale
Indiegraf provides an all-in-one platform specifically for small and startup news publications, aligning well with Medium's concept of enabling writers to publish and monetize content. It offers a website builder (Indie Website) with content publishing capabilities, email newsletter tools (Indie Email) for audience engagement and distribution, and ad management (Indie Ads Manager) for monetization. While it doesn't explicitly detail a 'recommendation engine' like Medium, it focuses on audience growth and content discovery through its integrated tools. The platform supports various features for content creation, reader engagement, and monetization, which are core to the Medium concept.
