Is Twitter working on a paid version of the social media service? The company recently posted several job listings concerning a mysterious “subscription platform.“
“We are a new team, codenamed Gryphon,” the company writes in one of the listings for a software engineer. “We are building a subscription platform, one that can be reused by other teams in the future. This is a first for Twitter!”
The Gryphon team will be made up of web engineers who’ll collaborate with the company’s payments teams and Twitter.com. A second job listing on LinkedIn for the project goes on to say Gryphon will “rebuild some of Twitter’s services to produce a subscription management platform.
