A <abbr title="A digital cooperative that builds tools for resilience and SDG advancement through trustworthy collective systems.">Smartup</abbr> creates trustworthy digital tools that help people—and the communities they form—become more resilient, resourceful, and effective in advancing the SDGs.</p>
|

|

<p><strong>At its core, every <abbr title="A digital cooperative that builds tools for resilience and SDG advancement through trustworthy collective systems.">Smartup</abbr> is built like a rocket: a solid foundation, three structural pillars, and a sharp point of execution.</strong></p>

<li><strong>Science:</strong><br />
|

Every tool we create is grounded in facts, evidence, and tested knowledge. The problems we tackle are science-proven, and solutions must stand up to real-world scrutiny.</li>
|
||
<li><strong>Democracy:</strong><br />
|
||
Our process and decisions are open and participatory. Everyone has a voice and a vote; no gated hierarchies, no closed rooms.</li>
|
||
<li><strong><abbr title="Enhanced problem-solving capacity created by collaborative, transparent teamwork.">Collective IQ</abbr>:</strong><br />

We are smarter together. All skills and ideas are pooled so we solve more, faster, and with better results than any one person or small group could alone.</li>

<p><strong><abbr title="Equal and inclusive ownership model based on contribution, not hierarchy or investment.">Collective Ownership</abbr></strong><br />

Everyone who joins and contributes is an equal owner. There are no founders, investors, or external shareholders—just people "in it" together.</p>

<p><strong><abbr title="Core value emphasizing meaningful, merit-based distribution of work and reward.">Collective Craftsmanship</abbr></strong><br />

All work and effort are shared—teams build, improve, and sustain everything the <abbr title="A digital cooperative that builds tools for resilience and SDG advancement through trustworthy collective systems.">Smartup</abbr> delivers. Value is earned by doing, not by owning capital.</p>
|
||
</li>
|
||
<li><strong><abbr title="Transparent and democratic oversight of all operations, including deliberation and voting.">Collective Governance</abbr></strong><br />

Decision-making and oversight are for everyone. Every contributor holds both rights and responsibilities for what the <abbr title="A digital cooperative that builds tools for resilience and SDG advancement through trustworthy collective systems.">Smartup</abbr> does and how it does it.</li>

While we are democratic in nature, we are military in execution. When the General Forum sets a target, the <abbr title="The centralized collaboration platform where workers manage objectives and tasks.">Workplace</abbr> hits it with precision.

<p>To create real, relevant technology, a <abbr title="A digital cooperative that builds tools for resilience and SDG advancement through trustworthy collective systems.">Smartup</abbr> can’t just be a loose network—it needs to be a productive, living system. But if nobody has absolute power—not even a CEO—how do decisions get made and meaningful work actually happen? The answer: the <abbr title="A digital cooperative that builds tools for resilience and SDG advancement through trustworthy collective systems.">Smartup</abbr> is a new kind of “organism” built for collective intelligence and self-organization.</p>

<p>A <abbr title="A digital cooperative that builds tools for resilience and SDG advancement through trustworthy collective systems.">Smartup</abbr> is a unique sociotechnical organism that combines democratic governance with military-precision execution. This hybrid design solves a fundamental challenge: how to maintain collective ownership while actually getting things done.</p>
|
||
<p><strong>The Design Principle</strong></p>
|
||
<p><strong>We are democratic where it matters most</strong>: In the General Forum, every citizen has equal voice, equal vote, equal responsibility. Here we decide WHAT we build and WHY—our mission, values, and strategic direction.</p>
|
||
<p><strong>We are disciplined where speed matters</strong>: In the <abbr title="The centralized collaboration platform where workers manage objectives and tasks.">Workplace</abbr>, we apply military-inspired command structures and proven operational processes. Here we decide HOW we build—with clear roles, accountability, and chains of command.</p>

|

<p>If you could slice a <abbr title="A digital cooperative that builds tools for resilience and SDG advancement through trustworthy collective systems.">Smartup</abbr> open, you’d see something that looks more like a living ecosystem than a traditional corporate pyramid. Instead of strict hierarchy and top-down control, power and responsibility are distributed through a holacratic structure: <strong>nested groups, each supporting the whole.</strong></p>
|
||
<blockquote>
|
||
<p><em>“Holacracy is a new way of structuring and running your organization that replaces the conventional management hierarchy. Instead of top-down, power is distributed throughout, giving individuals and teams more freedom to self-manage, while staying aligned to the organization’s purpose.”</em><br />

<p>In a <abbr title="A digital cooperative that builds tools for resilience and SDG advancement through trustworthy collective systems.">Smartup</abbr>, these circles are groups—each one crucial for the whole, each one depending on—and empowering—the next.</p>

<p class="admonition-title">A Complete Flow Example</p>
|
||
<p>Let's follow a decision from inception to execution:<br><br>
|
||
<strong>Day 1 - Citizen Initiative</strong>:<br>
|
||
In the General Forum, citizens (A) propose adding mesh networking to <abbr title="First pilot project of Smartup Zero—decentralized emergency citizen mesh network prototype.">ONLIFE</abbr>. Leadership team (D) facilitates discussion. Bot (M) publishes proposal to <abbr title="The public-facing, static website and primary transparency layer for the Smartup Zero experiment. Shows latest progress, business plan, team structure, roles, and documentation.">0_timeline</abbr>.<br><br>
|
||
<strong>Day 3 - Vote Passes</strong>:<br>
|
||
Colleagues in <abbr title="The centralized collaboration platform where workers manage objectives and tasks.">Workplace</abbr> (A) volunteer to implement. Leadership team (D) ensures it fits OSBP. Bot (M) reports commitment to General Forum.<br><br>
|
||
<strong>Day 5 - <abbr title="Focused group of workers responsible for specific domains (e.g., Development, Design, Media, Business, Operations, Science).">Team</abbr> Forms</strong>:<br>
|
||
Dev team members (A) organize around mesh networking. <abbr title="Focused group of workers responsible for specific domains (e.g., Development, Design, Media, Business, Operations, Science).">Team</abbr> captain (D) allocates budget and strategy. Bot (M) reports team formation to <abbr title="The centralized collaboration platform where workers manage objectives and tasks.">Workplace</abbr>.<br><br>
|
||
<strong>Day 7 - <abbr title="Functional positions within Teams (e.g., Frontend Developer). Define skillset, tasks, and compensation.">Roles</abbr> Activate</strong>:<br>
|
||
Backend peers (A) define mesh protocol skills needed. <abbr title="Focused group of workers responsible for specific domains (e.g., Development, Design, Media, Business, Operations, Science).">Team</abbr> captain (D) ensures roles are properly staffed. Bot (M) reports skill gaps to Teams.<br><br>
|
||
<strong>Day 10 - Objective Launches</strong>:<br>
|
||
Squad members (A) begin "Build Mesh Prototype" objective. Mission leader (D) coordinates resources. Bot (M) reports progress to <abbr title="Functional positions within Teams (e.g., Frontend Developer). Define skillset, tasks, and compensation.">Roles</abbr>.<br><br>
|
||
<strong>Day 12 - Tasks Execute</strong>:<br>
|
||
Senior dev (A) codes mesh discovery feature. Junior dev (D) assists and learns. Bot (M) logs 4 hours work, reports completion to Objective.<br><br>
|
||
<strong>Result</strong>: Complete transparency from public proposal to code commit. Every stakeholder can trace the path.</p>

<div class="admonition tip">
|
||
<p class="admonition-title">Why This Matters</p>
|
||
<p>Traditional organizations hide their operations behind closed doors. Our meta-transparency means:<br>
|
||
- Public can see how decisions become reality<br>
|
||
- Citizens can track their proposals through execution<br>
|
||
- Workers understand why they're building what they're building<br>
|
||
- No black boxes, no hidden agendas<br>
|
||
- Trust through transparency at every level</p>
|
||
</div>
|
||
<div class="admonition warning">
|
||
<p class="admonition-title">Information Overload?</p>
|
||
<p>With transparency at every level, we risk drowning in data. That's why the bot middleware is crucial—it filters and summarizes, ensuring each level gets the right amount of detail. Citizens don't see every git commit; task workers don't get flooded with governance debates.</p>
|
||
</div>
|
||
<p>The meta-transparency layer completes our metabolic system. It ensures that our democratic ideals don't get lost in execution, and our military efficiency doesn't override our collective ownership. Every action is visible, every decision traceable, every contributor accountable—not through surveillance, but through systematic transparency.</p>
