One home for decisions, governance context, and shared work.
Heirloom helps growing employee-owned companies, mature co-ops, and mission-driven organizations keep decision-making, accountability, stakeholder participation, and follow-through clear as they scale.
Currently working with a small number of early teams and ecosystem partners to shape Heirloom around real coordination, governance, and ownership-culture workflows.
Building or supporting an employee-owned organization? I'd value learning how your team handles decisions, governance, stakeholder participation, and follow-through today.

Stakeholders can check updates, tasks, and messages on the go.
Shared ownership gets more complex as organizations grow.
In early teams, context can live in meetings, memory, chat, and a few trusted people. But as employee-owned organizations add teams, committees, board processes, locations, advisors, and employee-owners, it becomes harder to keep decisions, responsibilities, and participation visible.
Everything is scattered
Notes, docs, tasks, proposals, and decisions spread across tools, so nobody can see the whole picture.
Governance context is hard to trace
Decisions happen in different rooms, but the reasoning, authority, and follow-through are not always easy to find.
Accountability gets uneven
Boards, committees, teams, and members may all own different pieces of work, but the handoffs are unclear.
Participation breaks down
People want to engage, but they do not always know where input is needed or what has already been decided.

Product
A flexible operating loop for participatory organizations.
Every Loom connects the conversation, decision, task, and context behind a piece of work. Teams can start with simple coordination, then add structure for boards, committees, member groups, proposals, voting, and decision records when it helps.
- Discussions stay attached to the work they create
- Proposals become decision records with clear next steps
- Boards, committees, and member groups can work with the right level of visibility
- Tasks, owners, and follow-through stay connected to the decision context
- Contribution and participation history stay visible where useful
Different groups can have different spaces, visibility, and decision pathways, from employees and members to boards, committees, leadership teams, advisors, and ecosystem partners.
Heirloom is not trying to replace every tool your organization already uses. It is focused on the layer where conversations become decisions, decisions become owned work, and the record stays visible.

How we think
Build organizations around the people inside them
Heirloom is built for organizations that believe good ideas should not get buried, contribution should not be invisible, and coordination should make participation easier instead of more confusing.
Surface ideas
Give people a place to propose, discuss, and shape work before decisions disappear into meetings, docs, or chat threads.
Make participation easier
Help employees, members, committees, and leaders see what is happening, where input is needed, and what has already been decided.
Preserve the record
Keep decisions, ownership, and contribution history connected so accountability can be grounded in real work.
Who it is for
Built for organizations where coordination, governance, and participation are part of the work.

How it works
Start simple. Add structure when your team is ready.
- 1
Map your current workflow
In setup, we shape a Loom around your organization, stakeholder groups, active work, and decision pathways.
- 2
Start with the loop
Bring one real discussion, decision, or project into Heirloom and connect it to tasks.
- 3
Add structure when it helps
Layer in roles, stakeholder groups, committees, proposals, decision records, voting, and contribution visibility as the organization needs more structure.
Ownership
Shared ownership support when it helps.
Start with the coordination layer your organization needs now. Add ownership, governance, and participation workflows as they become useful.
Start now
- Use Heirloom as a shared workspace for decisions and follow-through
- Keep discussions, proposals, tasks, and context connected
- Make participation easier across teams, committees, and stakeholder groups
Layer in structure
- Support member, board, committee, or advisor workflows
- Add proposal and voting pathways where they fit
- Preserve decision and contribution history over time
Ownership does not need to look the same in every organization. Heirloom is designed to support different paths, from early shared-work teams to more formal employee-owned and participatory structures.
Pricing
Early access pricing
Heirloom is currently working closely with a small number of early teams and ecosystem partners before opening public pricing.
Founder-led setup while pricing is still being shaped
We're still shaping pricing around how organizations actually use Heirloom for coordination, governance context, stakeholder participation, and follow-through. Early teams get founder-led setup and direct support as we learn what works.
Early teams get:
- Founder-led setup
- Workspace setup support
- Feedback-driven product shaping
- Pricing discussed based on team needs
- Best for employee-owned organizations, mature co-ops, EO ecosystem partners, and mission-driven teams working through real coordination, governance, or stakeholder-engagement challenges
Pricing is discussed based on team needs, setup scope, and what Heirloom is actually helping your team coordinate.
“If you want to create something made up of the best expertise and parts of everyone involved, use Heirloom.”
