Goal
We're building an end-to-end encrypted platform for collective organising: an all-in-one tool for running a democratic organisation, designed from the ground up to support collective work.
Instead of combining apps, we’re building just one space where an organisation can live, evolve, and make decisions together.
Who it’s for
Groups that make decisions together—especially when those decisions are high-stakes or impact people’s lives.
- Cooperatives and syndicates
- Unions organising drives and other collective action
- Nonprofits running programs
- Volunteer groups managing resources
- Newsrooms making decisions together
- Community organisations planning projects
- Mission-driven teams building things
- Any team that believes the people doing the work should have a say in how it’s done.
As they grow and move online, coordination becomes crucial to avoid chaos, but existing tools fall short. They need a single, unified space where conversations, decisions, and work can come together so they can focus on their work without chaos or clunky apps getting in the way.
Upcoming features
To start with, we’re focused on just a few key areas:
- Conversations: flexible channels that support both casual chat and focused discussions with clear topics
- Decisions that can emerge naturally from discussion: capture them directly from threads, or turn discussions into formal proposals with voting
- Work tracking that flows from decisions, carrying forward the context
Over time, we’ll add tools for collaborative writing, member management, and more, all end-to-end encrypted.
We want this to become the go-to tool for groups that make decisions together, making horizontal governance accessible, secure, and easy to use even for non-tech people. Our ambition is to prove that strong encryption, great design, and meaningful democratic participation can coexist.
In short: we’re making the infrastructure for participatory organisations actually good.
How we’ll make it happen
The goal has three big components that all need to be true:
- User experience and accessibility: Make the underlying technology usable and reliable for people of all technical backgrounds. If a 16-year-old or a 70-year-old volunteer can’t use it easily, it’s not good enough.
- Sustainability: We want to ensure that the project can support itself financially, while recognising the fact that the groups for whom our software is critical might have no budget at all. This will require careful planning around pricing or donation strategies.
- Governance structure: Ensure the tool is owned and governed by the people building and using it, with accountability to the communities it serves and without external investors or centralised control.
This project can be made possible only if it’s shaped by the people and communities who use it. If you’re inspired to contribute ideas and insights, want to help with code, accessibility, design, translation, or documentation, we’d love to hear from you. Get in touch so we can build this together.
