Own your software. Skip the upkeep.

We replace the subscriptions you're renting with open-source software you own — then handle the updates, backups and support, so owning it never becomes another job.

Talk about your stack

Subscription costs that only go up

Every tool your business runs on is another monthly line item, and most of them creep every year. Cancel, and you lose access to your own data.

Software you own, managed for you

We move you to open-source alternatives that do the same job — except the software and the data are yours. Self-hosting has always had a catch: someone has to look after it. That's us.

Key Benefits

No per-seat fees that creep every year

Your data stays on infrastructure you control

Updates, backups and monitoring handled for you

Leave any time, with everything — no lock-in, including to us

Canadian hosting available

Works alongside Lumina, or entirely on its own

How it works

Self-hosted doesn't have to mean self-managed. You get the control; we take the maintenance.

Look

We review what you're paying for today, what your team actually uses, and what's worth replacing — and what isn't.

Host

We source a server sized to your needs and requirements — including Canadian hosting if you want your data to stay in Canada.

Move

We set up the open-source replacement, migrate your data, and get your team comfortable with it before anything is switched off.

Run

On a monthly retainer, we keep it updated, patched, backed up and monitored — and we test that the backups actually restore. You have one number to call.

What we set up and support

The core categories most businesses start with.

File storage and sharing

Self-hosted alternatives to cloud drive subscriptions, with the same sync and sharing experience your team already expects.

Team communication and docs

Chat, wikis, and shared documents that live on your own infrastructure instead of a third party's.

Business and CRM tooling

Client records, invoicing, and line-of-business software you can extend, instead of waiting on a vendor's roadmap.

Analytics without third-party tracking

Understand how your site or app is used without handing every visitor's data to an ad network.

A sample of what's out there

This is a fraction of what's mature and stable today, across categories that go well beyond the obvious. If it's self-hostable, there's probably already a good answer for it.

Don't see your tool, or running something more niche? Ask — chances are there's a self-hosted answer for it too, and we'll run it for you the same way.

Ready to own your stack?

Every business's stack is different, so there's no fixed package: setup is scoped to what you're moving, and ongoing management is a monthly retainer sized to what we run for you. Tell us what you're paying for today — the first conversation is free, with no obligation.
