A Village for
every community.

Whānau, kāhui Māori, diaspora, clubs, parishes, businesses — every kind of Village on one sovereign foundation, with decisions, trade and AI on top. Your data under your jurisdiction, your records sealed and provable, your villages working together without a landlord.

Choose your village

One platform, shaped to your community.

Same sovereignty, same sealed record — vocabulary and workflows tuned to how your kind of community actually runs. Every one below is a working demo you can open and try. Every village runs the full platform: see pricing.

People & Heritage

Community, family and belonging — across generations and borders.

Village Community

A neighbourhood civic community — neighbour-help, community gardens, local events and a resource hub for lending gear. All members, selected members or only you decide who sees what.

Village Family

Stories, photos, the family tree, recipes and a shared calendar — kept where the family keeps them, across generations and time zones. Passed down, never mined.

Village Whānau

A digital home for whānau, hapū and iwi — pūrākau, whakapapa, tikanga documentation and hui coordination, in te reo Māori and English. Hosted on NZ soil, oriented to rangatiratanga raraunga.

Village Diaspora

Heritage preservation, language schools, cultural calendars and newcomer mutual aid — EU-hosted by default, beyond the legal reach of most home-country surveillance.

Village Alumni

A verified class directory, reunion planning, mentorship matching and a yearbook archive — visibility the member controls, no LinkedIn-style data brokering.

Governance & Organisation

Boards, committees and formal governance — every decision on the record.

Village Kāhui Māori

Kaupapa Māori governance for iwi authorities, marae trustees, whānau trusts and advisory rōpū — te reo Māori as the primary interface, hui-based deliberation, Māori data sovereignty by design.

Village Episcopal

Vestry governance, parish bulletins, pastoral-care coordination and the liturgical calendar — tradition-framed AI that respects your theological context.

Village Membership

AGMs, class structure and formal governance for societies and clubs — multi-class membership, AGM voting, competitions and exhibitions, equipment library, mentorship.

Village Committee

Agendas, task tracking, correspondence and finance registers for committees and volunteer groups — start simple with messaging and events; add governance features as the committee grows.

Governance Academy

A working board-governance village — board members, resolutions and minutes, and a real deliberation carried from proposal through discussion to a recorded resolution. Companion to the free Governance Course.

Village Certification

Per-engagement customer due diligence with a signed, immutable evidence pack, plus AI-use certification — human-only attestations, built for the AML/CTF obligations that reach lawyers, accountants and advisers from 1 July.

Business & Professional

Trade and regulated work — the sovereign back-office and marketplace.

Village Small Business

A sovereign workspace — CRM contacts, time tracking, GST invoicing and project coordination — with business-plan deliberation, where the AI critiques your plan and you resolve every point, kept as a provable record.

Homeground

A New Zealand property marketplace on the record — every offer written to a tamper-evident trail, a flat membership, never a slice of your sale. List it yourself, let agents compete, or sell privately with a lawyer.

Village Mortgage Lender

The relationship, document and audit layer for a lender — a borrower pipeline, a secure magic-link document portal, e-signatures and a tamper-evident trail, kept as CCCFA/AML evidence by construction. Runs beside the loan system, not replacing it.

Village Recruitment

Coming soon

Rule-bound, audit-logged candidate vetting with a locked bias-guard and a human in the loop. CVs stay on sovereign infrastructure — never sold, never fed to overseas AI — and candidates never see one another.

Environment & Activity

Groups that get out and do — restoration, sport and shared rides.

Village Conservation

Working-bee coordination, monitoring records, grant tracking and permit-expiry reminders for restoration groups and kaitiaki collectives — with iwi-partnership support for sites of cultural significance.

Village Clubs

Fixtures, training schedules, member-subs tracking, equipment booking and AGM voting for sports and hobby clubs — with junior-member safeguarding and an archive of past seasons.

Village Carpool

Regular commuters sharing rides — schedule rotation, cost splits and route preferences, with calling between members without ever swapping phone numbers. Koha model, no platform fees, no stranger matching.

Capabilities

What every Village can do.

On top of any village above sit the same apps — deliberation, trade and sovereign AI. Follow the compass: Decide, Work and Know.

Decide

Decisions your members can stand behind.

Deliberation, assemblies and consensus across federated villages — dissent preserved in the record, never averaged away, and every outcome sealed so it can be proven later.

Village A own records Village B own records Village C own records Shared mandate consolidated consensus no central owner sealed & provable
Villages federate on a shared mandate. Each keeps its own records; consensus is consolidated across them and sealed — there is no central platform holding everyone’s data or taking a cut.

Village Assembly

A citizens' assembly your organisation can actually run: put a real question to your members and rehearse the argument before anyone decides. Dissent kept word-for-word, never averaged into a score; the record sealed and yours to check.

Open Floor

Every member gets the floor — ideas raised in their own words, built on and argued out, then drawn together without averaging, so a sharp minority idea survives whole. Inside your village, on your terms.

Governance API

Programmatic access to sealed, verifiable governance records — for developers and implementers building on top of a sovereign, provable deliberation trail.

Consolidated Village Consensus

Many rooms, one question — drawn into a single map that keeps every minority position whole and attributed, and never averages dissent into a score.

Civic Assembly

Coming soon

Community consultation for councils and agencies — every submission and decision sealed to a record residents can verify, and their data kept onshore under NZ jurisdiction.

Work

Trade on proof, not platforms.

Business tools and marketplaces where the sealed record carries the trust — so no intermediary needs to take a cut for vouching.

Business Copilot

A copilot that works from your business’s own values and context — running on our machines, never handed to a foreign model.

Homeground

The property marketplace without a middleman’s margin — sealed records carry the trust between buyer and seller, on a flat membership rather than a slice of the sale.

Provenance

Coming soon

Sealed provenance for NZ exports — grower to buyer, every step tamper-evident, verifiable offline by the customer at the far end.

Village Desk

Coming soon

Membership, contacts and shared notes under your own roof — the everyday running of a club, co-op or practice, without a foreign landlord.

Know

What your village knows, working for you.

Sovereign AI that answers from your village’s own knowledge, values and context — inference on our own machines, gated by your values, nothing leaving the room.

Village AI

A specialised model tuned for your community type, served from our own GPUs in Aotearoa and Europe — no calls to foreign models, no tenant data leaving sovereign ground. Every response passes Guardian Agents before it reaches a member; the AI suggests, the member decides.

Common Ground

What every Village stands on.

Not a feature list — a foundation. Every Village and every capability above inherits all of this, on day one, without asking.

The sovereign record

Tamper-evident, cryptographically sealed, verifiable offline — proof that stands up without taking our word for it.

Federation

Villages and organisations interoperate on shared mandates — no central owner holding the data or taking a rent.

Village AI

Sovereign inference on our own machines, gated by your values — your questions never train someone else’s model.

NZ, EU & AU hosting

Your data lives under NZ, EU and (from 1 July) Australian law — never quietly swept into a foreign jurisdiction’s reach.

A different foundation, not just a different flag.

Most organisational software is built on the same bet: gather enough data, average enough people, and good decisions fall out. They don’t. Averaged assumptions produce stale answers — and the data never stops travelling.

Village apps start from the other end: your organisation’s own articulated values and context. Decisions are reasoned against them, dissent is preserved rather than smoothed away, and the whole chain of reasoning is sealed so it can be proven later — to your members, your buyers, your auditors.

And it all runs where you can see it: NZ, EU and AU hosted, members-only, federated without a landlord. Your data stays yours — never quietly harvested into someone else’s watch-list or model. That’s the middle ground: not isolation, not capture. Working with everyone, owned by no one.
