Free 30-minute SaaS audit. (912) 600-3661

One philosophy, three ways to engage
Most clients start with a Liberation Project, then move to Managed Private Cloud and Network & Security to keep things running.
Audit your last 12 months of SaaS spend. Replace the heavy line items with managed open-source. Keep the SaaS that earns its bill. Typical 30–60% savings over 3 years.
Learn moreFiles, chat, automation, mail — running on infrastructure you own, maintained by us. Nextcloud, n8n, Mattermost, glued together with Proxmox + Ceph.
Learn moreMesh networking, hardened endpoints, firewall management, real backups, and security monitoring. The layer that wraps around everything.
Learn moreWhy this model actually works
Every system we run for you is open-source, documented, and portable. If we walked away, another competent operator could take over. That's the whole point.
Flat per-user pricing. No per-feature, per-seat-over-threshold, or per-AI-add-on surprises. We cut the rent on infrastructure line items and leave the SaaS that earns its bill alone — typical 30–60% savings over three years.
Proxmox + Ceph, automated patching, real backups, 24/7 monitoring. The same patterns hyperscalers use, sized for actual businesses and run by people who care.
Your data stays on your infrastructure. No vendor scanning your files for AI training. No surprise policy changes that quietly expand what they collect.
Software we build and operate
Alongside the services, we build our own platforms — starting with Goalorithm. More in development; only shipped work makes this page.
