For teams, co-ops, and nonprofits • Public benefit experiment

A shared operating system for teams building together.

Heirloom is a home base for small teams to share ideas, discuss proposals, align asynchronously, and track contributions so your organization can build momentum without chaos.

Not a corporate project manager. Infrastructure designed for collective work and long-term fairness.

Clarity

Roles, goals, and ownership become visible without adding hierarchy.

Fairness

Contribution history stays visible over time, not trapped in memory.

Momentum

Move asynchronously with shared context so you actually ship.

Best fit for

small teams

worker co-ops

nonprofits & collectives

One home base for ideas + execution
Decision context stays attached to work
Contribution tracking for fairness over time
Async alignment without chaos

(We'll help you set it up if you want.)

Small teams do not fail because people do not care.

They fail because the work has no home and hard conversations get delayed until it is too late.

Everything is scattered

Notes, docs, tasks, and decisions spread across tools, so nobody can see the whole picture.

Ownership is unclear

Who owns what? Who did what? The question gets avoided instead of answered.

Talk replaces shipping

Great discussions, weak follow-through, because execution is not anchored anywhere.

Recognition breaks down

People do not feel seen. Effort becomes invisible, and motivation drops.

A home base where your organization can live and grow

Heirloom gives teams a single home base where ideas, decisions, tasks, and contribution history stay connected so momentum does not get lost.

  • Task ownership and contribution tracking
  • Proposal and decision context attached to the work
  • Async alignment without chaos or extra hierarchy

Mission

A public benefit experiment in building better organizations

Heirloom is a Public Benefit Company building infrastructure for people to build better businesses together.

Heirloom is designed to be a home for your organization's ideas, work, and history, not just another tool you use. We want to help you build shared context and a stronger team over time without adding bureaucracy or hierarchy.

  • Build together.
  • Track fairness over time.
  • Keep momentum without chaos.
  • Maintain clarity without hierarchy.

We are not trying to add bureaucracy. We are trying to protect the work, the context, and the people behind it.

How Heirloom helps

Shared ownership + execution without chaos

Heirloom gives teams a single home base where ideas, decisions, and work stay connected.

Task ownership + contribution tracking

Make work visible, accountable, and fair with contribution history that compounds over time.

Decision context + idea history

Proposals, discussions, and changes stay attached to the work so you do not re-litigate everything.

Async alignment

Move between meetings with shared context, clear ownership, and lightweight updates.

Heirloom is built for teams who want a collaborative-first culture where people feel recognized, empowered to contribute ideas, and aligned on the bigger picture.

How it works

Start simple. Add structure when your team is ready.

  1. 1

    Set up your organization

    Create a Loom for your team, define what you are building, and make your current work visible.

  2. 2

    Centralize discussion and execution

    Keep tasks, proposals, documents, and updates attached to the same shared context.

  3. 3

    Build trust over time

    Track contribution history, create clarity around ownership, and formalize more later if you need to.

Ownership

Shared ownership when you are ready

Start with collaboration and fairness. Formalize later if you want to.

Start now

  • Use Heirloom as your shared workspace
  • Track contributions over time
  • Build trust through transparency and follow-through

Formalize later (optional)

  • Connect to legal pathways when the team is ready
  • Incorporation and compliance support can be layered in over time
  • Shared ownership structures remain available without blocking day one

Ownership is not required to start. But if you want to build a co-owned organization, Heirloom is designed to support that path.

Pricing

Simple pricing that does not punish collaboration

Pricing is tied to a Loom, not per-seat, so your whole team can work together without seat math.
