Sovereign tools for communities that own their future
Three tools, one vision — communication, knowledge, migration.
No one else gives you chat, migration, and knowledge as one sovereign, self-hostable stack.
The Sacred Vessel of Communication
A sovereign chat platform for communities that refuse to compromise. Real-time messaging, voice channels, roles, and direct messaging — all under your control.
Powered by Stoat
The usual way
Per-seat team chat
Bills every member, every month. A growing community is a growing bill.
With Episkopos
One flat rate per server
A 50-member and a 500-member community pay the same. Your success isn’t taxed.
Draw Back the Veil
A searchable archive of what your community shares — links, images, videos, files. Full-text search and faceted browsing across all artifacts.
The usual way
Enterprise search
Heavy base fees and usage meters built for corporations, not communities.
With Episkopos
Everything shared, not everything said.
Faceted full-text search across every link, image, video, and file — never the messages themselves.
The Quiet Side Gate
Migration and continuous sync between Discord and sovereign chat platforms. Guided setup, per-community bot isolation, and full data portability.
The usual way
Discord backup bots
Charge a premium for a snapshot — and leave you stranded when you actually need to move.
With Episkopos
Full migration + live sync
A continuously mirrored, portable copy of your community for a flat monthly — a real exit, not a backup.
Chat, migration, and knowledge as one suite that works together — not three vendors you wire up yourself.
Self-host any of it, free and open-source (AGPL). You pay us to operate it — never to unlock your own data.
A free tier with real utility, flat prices that don’t punish growth, and no per-seat cliff.
Start free. Flat rates that don’t punish growth. Self-host any of it for nothing.
$0 forever
A real taste of the whole suite — not a time-bomb trial.
from $9 / mo
Pay only for the managed pieces you want.
$39 / mo
$53 of value for $39 — the whole stack, one decision.
Self-hosted is always free under the AGPL — you’re never locked in. Pricing subject to change after Alpha — annual billing locks in today’s rate.
Episkopos builds sovereign community tools for people who believe their conversations, knowledge, and social connections shouldn't be held hostage by corporate platforms.
Every tool we build is open-source and self-hostable. We don't believe in vendor lock-in — which is why Postern exists. If a better platform comes along, your data goes with you.
We're a small team that practices what we preach: our own community runs on the tools we build.
