Access architecture

Access is earned, not purchased.

BU is in staged access. We work with each community to scope coordination that matches their needs, governance, and trust readiness. No speculative tiers. No artificial scarcity. Access expands as trust grows.

Why access is structured

Trust infrastructure requires trust-ready communities.

BU is not a tool you sign up for and configure alone. It is an operating system for communities that take coordination seriously. Access is staged because readiness matters more than speed.

Scoped to real needs

Every conversation starts with your coordination context — who your people are, what you coordinate, and what accountability looks like for your group. We do not sell features. We scope access to what your community actually needs.

Staged, not scarce

Access expands as the platform matures and communities demonstrate trust readiness. Early access is intentional — ensuring governance quality before scale, not creating artificial exclusivity.

Value-aligned

Pricing rewards real coordination, not attention. No pay-to-win. No extraction. The model works when communities succeed — and fails when they do not. That alignment is deliberate.

Three paths

Choose the path that fits how you coordinate.

Free — Participant

Free, forever

Individuals, family members, supporters, and newcomers joining trusted communities.

Join Spaces and Collectives through invitation. Participate in Pools, Commitments, and events. Build private trust history through fulfilled action. Quotas apply to prevent abuse but never to prevent meaningful participation.

Join communities through secure invitation
Participate in Pools, events, and Commitments
Submit Proof Packets as evidence of your activity
Issue witness attestations from first-hand knowledge
Private, consent-gated trust activity — never a public leaderboard

Verified — Trust+

Staged access

Individuals who need verification services and enhanced personal trust tooling.

Access identity, document, and verified-attestation services as paid operational services. Higher personal quotas for Proof Packets, Attestations, and Commitments. Private self-reflection signals about your own activity. Does NOT grant trust reputation — verification outputs are evidence any user could earn through behavior.

Everything in Free, plus:
Identity and document verification services
Verified attestation service
Higher personal quotas for evidence and commitments
Priority AI assistant in personal workflows
Email support with a committed response window

Organiser — Pro

Staged access

Community organisers, event hosts, small-group leaders, teachers, and mentors running one or more Collectives.

Create and operate multiple Communities, Groups, and Circles with expanded member and Pool capacity. Advanced governance templates, delegation, and decision-tracking tooling. Organiser workflow tooling (recurring events, reminders, member coordination, dispute mediation assists).

Everything in Verified, plus:
Create and manage multiple Collectives
Advanced governance templates and delegation tooling
Dispute mediation and Steward tooling
Recurring operations, reminders, and member coordination
Priority support with a 1-business-day target

Node — Institution

Custom

Charities, schools, community centres, cooperatives, professional organisations, and ethical businesses hosting one bounded institutional Space.

ONE bounded institutional deployment — a single Space with many Collectives, institutional governance, bounded custom branding within calm-UX constraints, audit exports, SSO, and directory integrations. Federation across multiple Spaces is Enterprise territory.

Everything in Organiser, plus:
Institutional Space with council-led or hybrid governance
Audit exports and compliance tooling
SSO and directory integrations
In-product custom branding (within calm-UX constraints)
Institutional business verification service
Premium support with phone escalation and bundled onboarding

Enterprise — Federation

Custom contract

Multi-branch networks, national-scale federations, and strategic partners requiring multiple Spaces under federated governance.

Multi-Space federation under one contract. Custom SLAs, legal agreements, data-residency options. White-label deployment (distinct from the Node plan's custom branding). Dedicated account team and bespoke integration work.

Everything in Node, plus:
Multiple Spaces under federated governance
White-label deployment with domain control
Custom data residency and compliance terms
Dedicated account team and named support contact
Contractual SLA negotiated per engagement

Trust unlocks access

The more you coordinate, the more opens up.

BU does not gate features behind payment. Access expands as communities build trust through consistent coordination.

Start

Join a community. Participate in groups, pools, and events. Build your first trust signals.

Unlocks: Core coordination surfaces

Grow

Consistent participation compounds into deeper trust. Your reliability becomes readable.

Unlocks: Larger pools, leadership roles, verified introductions

Lead

Proven governance and follow-through unlock organiser capabilities and institutional tools.

Unlocks: Organiser tools, institutional surfaces, external trust sharing

Every path includes

Privacy by default — trust activity is never public without explicit consent

Evidence-first trust — earned through fulfilled commitments and witnessed attestations, never purchased

No public trust scores, ranks, ratings, or purchased verified badges on any plan

Verification services are operational work; the output is evidence, not reputation

Fair governance — disputes follow clear, documented processes

Live pricing numbers coordinated with the Stripe unification lane (PL-09) before publication
