Build on standards, not platforms.
Platform dependency is business risk. API changes break your product. Price increases eat your margins. Policy shifts de-platform you overnight. Your customer relationships exist only at the platform's pleasure.
Open protocols invert this relationship. You own your infrastructure. You control your data. Your customers belong to you, not to some intermediary. When you build on open standards, no single company can pull the rug.
What becomes possible.
No Vendor Lock-In
Own your relationship with customers directly. Your business model isn't tied to a platform's roadmap or pricing changes.
User Portability
Allow users to bring their identity and social graph with them, significantly lowering onboarding friction.
Permissionless Innovation
Build on existing tools and datasets immediately without waiting for partnership agreements from gatekeepers.
Protocols we build on.
We don't just use open protocols—we help create and maintain them. Our team contributes to the standards that power the next generation of internet infrastructure.
