Federated Community Infrastructure
Sovereign platforms for communities that connect without centralising. Each village controls its own data. Federation connects them.
What's New
Village Committee
New product type for neighbourhood associations, project committees, and volunteer groups. Deliberations, correspondence register, financial tracking — all opt-in.
Governance Paperwork
Correspondence register, financial register with receipt scanning, CSV export, and Xero integration. Built for rūnanga and board governance.
Platform Glossary
50 terms, 89 cross-links, 5 languages. Every Village concept defined in context. Māori terminology authored, not translated.
Built on Transparency
We believe trust is earned through openness. Here's who we are and what we stand for.
We don't sell ads. We don't sell your data. We don't train AI on your stories.
No algorithmic feeds. No tracking. No addiction mechanics.
What Makes Village Different
Features rarely found together.
Village Federation
Communities connect through bilateral agreements. Members move between federated Villages without separate accounts. Live between NZ and EU.
Email, Channels, Video
Compose email to members. Named discussion channels. Self-hosted video calls via Jitsi. End-to-end encrypted direct messaging.
Governance & Deliberation
Formal proposal-to-decision workflow. Binding and advisory votes. Resolution tracking. Built for boards, not just communities.
Sovereign AI
Constitutional AI with guardian agents. Tikanga-informed governance rules. No data sent to US services. Inference on your infrastructure. EU AI Act compliant.
100+ Languages
Te reo Māori available across every Village — default for whānau, selectable for all others. 100+ additional languages via DeepL. Every label, notification, governance term adapts to your community.
No US Data Residency
Your data stays on sovereign servers in France or New Zealand. No AWS, no Google Cloud, no Cloudflare. Encrypted at rest. Auditable infrastructure. Your data is never locked in. Leave and take everything with you.
Villages Don't Stand Alone
Connect with other villages through bilateral agreements. Video call across communities while your data stays in your village.
Family Connections
Your aunt's village in Germany, your cousin's village in New Zealand — connect via video call without leaving your village.
Business Networks
Call suppliers directly, coordinate with partners, brief contractors — all with formal agreements that both parties control.
Community Partnerships
Neighbouring communities sharing resources. Sister city connections across oceans. Regional coordination without centralised control.
Governance Bodies
A governance board federated with its community Village. Board members move between formal decision-making and member engagement without separate accounts.
Membership Organisations
Professional associations and networks that need everything Circle offers — without the US data residency or broad content licences.
Community Carpools
Community carpooling on sovereign NZ infrastructure. When neighbouring towns join, riders see offers across communities — federation with real transport outcomes.
