Own your channels, content, and community

Organisations and individuals are looking for safer, evergreen ways to manage their content and community.

Channel.org is a non-profit that helps you take ownership of your channels, content and communities on the web.

Members get a long-term
home on the social web:
[you].channel.org

Controlled and owned by you, your Channel.org channel is a pathway to creating content of all types, building communities, and driving long-term social growth on the web.

We’ll help you get started, but will never take control. Your Channel.org account is owned by you, and connects and federates content out to any fediverse-integrated current and future channels you choose, like Threads and Mastodon.

“We’ve begun building our fediverse presence with the help of Channel.org, so we can own and control the distribution of our high-quality content about the natural world in Australia”
