a knowledge base we actually own — no notion, no confluence, no vendor lock-in
graph-based knowledge management built for small teams. clean editor, fast search, shared workspaces, zero vendor lock-in. the cooperative maintains it forever — that's the entire point. your company's knowledge doesn't belong to a VC-backed startup that might pivot to AI chatbots next quarter.
the problem
our entire company brain lives in notion. eight people, $96/month, and if notion gets acquired or raises prices again we lose everything. we've tried self-hosting wiki tools and they all rot within 6 months because nobody maintains them.
submitter asks $100/mo to maintain and host this.
$800/mo pledged from 9 sponsors
80%
80% toward forming a cell ($1,000/mo threshold)
no charges yet — this is a commitment, not a payment.

for legal work, knowledge management is existential. every case builds on prior research. losing access to that history because a vendor pivots would be catastrophic.
we tried notion, then confluence, then just went back to google docs. the problem isn't the tool — it's that nobody maintains it. a cooperative that guarantees ongoing maintenance is exactly what we need.
