Founding Pioneer

1,000 places. Then it closes.

Everything Can0nical builds for individuals, included for good. A numbered certificate anyone can check. A place in the founding directory, a byline on the journal that sits alongside it, and 20% of everyone you bring, for as long as they stay.

One payment of $199. No renewals, ever.

What a founding place includes

Eight things, and one of them pays you back

01

Everything we build, for good

Every future individual plan, included at no extra cost. Every limit raised, never lowered. Identity verification covered for life, anchoring covered and unmetered.

Nothing you use today ever moves behind a higher tier.

A founding place is not a discount on the current product. It is a permanent claim on every version of it.

02

20% for life, in cash

20% of every membership you refer, recurring, for as long as they stay a customer. Not credits. Money.

A referred founding place pays you $39.80. 5 of them covers your own $199, exactly.

After that it is income, and it does not stop.

03

A place in the founding directory

A public, search-indexed listing of the founding cohort: your name, a link to your own site, and any skills your clients have confirmed.

A founding place is not conditional on logging work. Members join because they back what we are building, and many are companies that will never file a milestone. The seat, the certificate, the listing and the referral share are yours either way.

That is what makes it worth being in, and what makes it worth linking to. Sorted by seat number. Never by who paid.

See the cohort so far

04

A byline on The Record

Every founding member gets to publish on The Record, our journal, written by the professionals in the directory.

Your post, your byline, your expertise, linked to your profile and your site. Distributed to our audience and built to be found in search.

Edited for clarity, never for message. Original work only.

05

A permanent mark on your Can0nical ID

The Founding Pioneer badge sits on your profile for good, with your number on it. Only 1,000 people will ever carry one.

Send a client your profile and the badge is there, next to work they can check themselves.

It marks you as one of the people this was built with, not one of the people it was later sold to.

06

A certificate on a public blockchain

A numbered certificate, Founding Pioneer #47, with its fingerprint written to Algorand.

Checkable by anyone, without an account and without asking us. Permanent, and independent of us.

Your record belongs to you. That is the whole thesis of this company, and your certificate is the first thing it applies to.

07

A say in what gets built

Every quarter we publish what we could build next, with real estimates. Founding members rank it, and the ranking sets the order.

You are shaping the roadmap, not filling in a suggestion box.

08

Terms for the company you run

When company accounts arrive, founding members get free seats and a permanent founding rate on one organisation they own or lead.

Your personal record always stays yours. A company seat sits beside it and never absorbs it.

Our standards

What money does not buy here

Everything above makes you easier to find, easier to believe and better paid. None of it touches whether your work is true, because a verification you can buy is worth nothing to the person reading it, which makes it worth nothing to you.

A better score

The Integrity Score is computed from confirmed work. It cannot be bought, raised or waived by anyone, including us.

A higher ranking

The directory sorts by seat number. It never sorts by who paid.

Faster verification

Every record goes through the same checks in the same order. There is no paid queue.

Softer validation

Your client confirms your work, or nobody does.

Claims we cannot check

Your profile shows only what was verified through us. No self-reported fields, however good they would look.

These are not restrictions on what you get. They are the reason what you get is worth holding.
