Software, the internet, apps and AI belong to the people who use them. Not to a handful of companies with a lot of power.
Identity, communication, data and software come from a few companies, with a business model in which you are not the customer. It brought a lot, including much nobody asked for: algorithms that steer, dependence you can no longer untangle.
What yesterday took hundreds of developers and a global data centre, a small team with agents on its own hardware does today. For the first time, software that belongs to its users is also affordable.
Apps and software are moving to open source at a fast pace. You only own what you can inspect, change and take with you.
Open software on the servers of a single owner is a false freedom. The next step is hosting that is open too: no owner who decides everything, but a network in which every user is co-owner and co-payer. Like the fungal network under a forest: everywhere, owned by no one alone.
Control and returns with the members, not with a platform. The same model that once made farmers and banks stronger together.
GDPR, NIS2 and the AI Act are not a burden but a design choice. Software that respects its users fits within them by itself.
Websites, apps and services of different organisations run on one shared platform, built and operated by AI agents.
Every change is tested and rolled out to a test environment automatically. It reaches production only after one approval by its owner.
Backups are not only made but also restored and checked. On servers in Europe, with a European company.
Does your club, neighbourhood or cooperative need an app or site that belongs to you? Then we build it together, as the first members.
Help open up the software and build the members' network.
p2tp is looking for partners who want to speed up public digital infrastructure. The mission will be anchored in the statutes; we are choosing that structure with care.
p2tp builds this step by step. Geert Rozendom (B.V. Geert) took the initiative, Appfabriek is the workshop. Apps at cost plus 1 percent. Data on your own device as much as possible. Our servers are in Europe, with a European company. And later, hosting on a network that its users own themselves.
Want to help build or think along? Email us.
