Own the tools you use. Or just rent them.

An organization

Your Software Engineering environment, running on your own data, callable by your own AI assistants, built with the people who will use it instead of sold to you by a vendor who will not. Your organization owns a share of the cooperative that runs it and a seat at the table that decides what it becomes. Your data stays yours; only aggregates leave, and only when enough organizations are in the cell to make them anonymous.

An individual

The Software Engineering tools, corpus, library and guides that the field has been waiting for someone to build properly, owned by the practitioners who use them. Join for the price of a professional association, use everything, shape what gets built next, and take a patronage share when the cooperative does well. You are not a customer of a startup; you are a member of the thing.

People who build and run it

Build Software Engineering infrastructure for the people who use it, paid a salary and a patronage share, with a vote in how the cooperative is run. The product is not owned by investors and will not be sold out from under the people who made it. If you want to build in public, with receipts, for owners who are also users, this is where that job exists.

An organization that does not want to join

The Software Engineering environment on your own data, licensed from Bicycle LLC as a plain subscription. No membership, no data contribution to the commons, no access to its aggregates, no vote. Join later and your rent converts to dues.
