Manifest

"Everything in our world seems to chip away at our individuality."

This phrase drives my work every day. I believe in holding tightly to the core of who we are. For the past few years, I’ve made it my mission to build a community and a space where people can fully express their individuality.

Welcome to the Itmeo Platform.

It’s the place where creators come together, thrive, and showcase their unique talents.

Itmeo was founded and continues to grow through the sole support of its creator, Dima Braven. This independence allows us to remain focused on what matters most: the needs of our users. We rely on your support to keep this vision alive.

If you believe in our mission, please consider donating any amount to support what we’re building. You can also attach a message about how you want to explore and realize your creative potential—and we’ll do our best to help you on Itmeo!

Next, I’d like to share my story—the journey of a creator.

My name is Dima Braven, and I am the founder, visionary, and designer behind Itmeo.

My journey as a creator began at the age of 6, when a book about space ignited my imagination. I became determined to one day build a warp engine that would make interplanetary travel possible. Growing up, I was deeply passionate about physics, architecture, and art, and I always aspired to become an independent creator.

By the time I turned 17, I was already exploring entrepreneurship, running my own photography studio. Capturing images led me to fall in love with the process of building things that matter. At 24, I launched my own web studio, developing websites and startups globally.

In 2017, I created WebGradients.com—a project that transformed the design industry. After its release, gradients became a design staple across the web. Major companies like Apple, Microsoft, and others adopted this trend—Apple even updated their home screen and iOS design using gradients similar to mine.

Millions of creators worldwide have used WebGradients, and the project has received over $50k in donations from supporters. Designers at famous companies such as Apple, Disney, IBM, and Amazon have integrated these gradients into their work. Even the founder of Figma Dylan Field recognized the impact of WebGradients with a tweet (link).

This project put Itmeo and myself, Dima Braven, on the global map. But I wasn’t content with just changing design trends—I wanted to create something that would revolutionize the creative industry itself. My dream was to build a platform that not only streamlines work but empowers creators to realize their full potential and earn from their craft.

For the past 10 years, I’ve dedicated myself to creating projects—both my own and for companies—that now touch millions of lives worldwide.

To this day, I live by 3 core principles I established at 19:

1. create more than I consume,
2. inspire others,
3. commit to personal growth every day

My ultimate goal is to build something that reflects my true self.

I believe in the power of a global creative community, one that unites to make the world a better place. Our mission is simple: gather on a platform, craft innovative solutions, and extend our impact to people everywhere.

After five years of relentless work and exploration, the time has finally come—the Itmeo platform is ready!

Imagine a place where you can present your services, accept donations, sell digital and physical goods, upload pictures to a gallery, create visual blog posts and websites. A space that gives you complete control over your audience, with full transparency on all promotional tools. For each product, service, post, or image, you can integrate advanced analytics like Google Analytics, Hotjar, Facebook Pixel, and more. You can easily send email newsletters, notify your audience about new content, and promote your products. Your work will be discoverable in the marketplace, optimized for SEO, making the Itmeo platform far more profitable than other creator marketplaces.

In short, Itmeo offers you everything you need in one place to promote, earn, and showcase your creative projects.

Our goal now is to release a minimal first version and develop further and make Itmeo Platform the leader in the market of platforms for creators.

Now you can create your page, which is both a place to sell your products and services, information about you in bio and all links in one place. You can also use the visual editor to create a blog post, article, longread or an entire website. In the audience section you can access information on those users who bought or downloaded your free products or lead magnets. You can download your entire audience and send them out using any mailer. Accessibility of information is important to us and all information about your audience is available to you unlike other platforms.

In the future our goal is to make new features such as simplified blog post editor, image gallery creation, creators directory, publishing of offers and orders.

We need your support to continue the independent development of our platform and to deliver the best possible product for creators. Our mission is to make creators' lives easier and better. Currently, our service is free, and we operate without external investments, which means we rely on the support of creators like you.

To maintain our independence and enhance our offerings, we plan to introduce a small commission of 10% on every sale of your goods and services made through our platform. Additionally, we welcome any donations to help fuel the continued development of our service. Your support is vital to our success, and together, we can create an even better experience for all creators.
