About


"If you want to teach people a new way of thinking, don't bother trying to teach them. Instead, give them a tool, the use of which will lead to new ways of thinking." — Buckminster Fuller

We build citizen infrastructure — open-source tools that teach collective action, solidarity, and shared stewardship through use. Not apps or platforms in the traditional sense, but tools crafted to reshape how people relate to each other and to their communities.

When digital platforms treat users as products rather than participants, the antidote isn't better regulation — it's building tools that nurture citizen empowerment and the people's capacity to act together.

What we build


  • my-community — online community dashboard with Bluesky feeds, Telegram/Slack digests, and participation opportunities
  • dear-neighbors — neighborhood dashboard with community-curated local news and participation opportunities
  • community-admin — shared admin platform for community organizers
  • avails — ATProto-powered group scheduling
  • open-collective-mcp — MCP server for managing Open Collective pages via AI assistants

Principles


  • Pedagogical by design — every interaction teaches users to think collectively rather than individually
  • Ownership-enabling — users become stewards, not consumers
  • Solidarity-building — designed to strengthen connections and shared purpose
  • Sovereignty-preserving — communities maintain control over their tools and data
  • Interoperable — small, loosely coupled tools working as part of a larger ecosystem
  • Antifragile — growing stronger under stress rather than more brittle
