The Problem

Digital Sovereignty was born out of my desire to use great software to order my life without selling an arm and leg. Endless subscriptions for bookeeping, a CRM, project managment, automation, etc.; upsells upon upsells; giving all my data to big brother. Being tired of all this, I set to find a solution for ordering my house. The fruit of that search is what Digital Sovereignty offers.

Most well-known software advertized to small businesses overpriced—annually: proprietary telemetry data farms designed to ensnare into dependence on the big tec bottle for your daily milk.

But it need not be so: software developers all over the world have created amazon open source tools; it’s a proper golden age. These  tools are not small projects, but well maintained enterprise-grade platforms which are used globally. These softwares are ownable, with no license traps. Many business people simply don’t know how to use these tools, or are  frequently too busy doing what they do best to learn to manage servers, to secure backups, etc.

The Principle

Digital sovereignty exist to move businesses off the digital plantation onto their own estate. We build and maintain your private cloud, while you keep the keys, the data, and the authority. We are not your landlord, but your builders and stewards.

Digital Sovereignty means that you hold the keys to the infrastructure your business relies upon.

Consider for the difference between owning or renting a house. Renting appeals to many; those who don’t mind paying more for less responsibility and risk. They rely on someone else to squash the bugs and fix the walls, someone else to bear the risk and collect the profits.

The owner, on the other hand, is responsible—they answer to God and Caesar alone. They (or their steward) maintain and repair and profit off their estate. The risk is theirs, but so is the reward. They have what the renter does not: dominion.

The same is true for the digital world.

Digital Sovereignty is about taking responsibility for your digital infrastructure. It means repairing the roof and chainging the air-filters yourself; digital self-governance. Our clients hold the keys to their infrastructure, control their data, and the services they use.

The Solution/Service

What this means practically, is that the client pays for us to manage a reserved, isolated server under your name; to host and run the applications: to maintain and store the data safely.

Your business systems — CRM, automation, accounting software, and file storage — run on your server, under your name and control. We handle the technical side, but you retain the keys, data, and ownership. 

The Outcome

Technology should serve people, not people technology. Software can be a blessing which enables, or the means by which you become enslaved to a digital landlord. Our goal is for you is to be the one-stop-shop replacement of manifold SaaS subscriptions. A fraction of the cost, better quality applications, and complete privacy. We provide the freedom for you to better do what your business does best.
