Our Story

Founded by Nuseir Yassin from Nas Daily (53 million followers), the Nas company is home to Nas Daily, Nas Academy, Nas Studios –and Nas.io.

“Nas” means “people” and it has been the foundation of our mission: Bring People Together.

People can do more together. People can find friends, mentors, and accountability partners within a community. At Nas Academy, we have the data to support this: with over 1,500 cohort communities.

And communities today have transformed far beyond the traditional concept of a community.

  • a community can be a group of 100 people who come together every week to share and discuss ideas on Zoom.
  • a community can be 25 people flying in from across the world for a yoga retreat every 3 months.
  • a community can be an influencer’s 1,000 true fans learning from each other in a Telegram group.
  • a community can be 10,000 NFT holders sharing about events and other projects.

Nas.io is building products for people to have a trustworthy and internationally recognized place to start and manage their own communities – including brands, thought leaders, coaches, entrepreneurs, content creators, and DAO builders.

As a company, we’ve successfully built communities over and over again – and now, we are building tools and integrations that will allow other people to build communities faster than ever before.
