# Nadia Okafor

Founder · Studio Signal

## Who they are

A paid community for freelance designers.

Nadia was weighing the monthly fees on Circle and Skool against building her own community on WordPress instead. She’s skeptical of AI by default: she doesn’t want to hand over the keys.

Before MemberPress.ai, she was comparing Circle and Skool side by side.

## How they got back to their members

After setup, MemberPress.ai runs every change to her memberships, rules and prices as a dry run first — a new tier, a pricing update, a member rule. Generated content lands as an unpublished draft in her editor. She says what she wants once, and Opal handles the rest. It all runs on a site she owns, with her member list and payment gateway staying hers.
