Decentralized Platforms

Riff.cc

Building cooperative, unstoppable libraries and platforms — for the users, by the users.

The problem

Content platforms centralize power over what stays online and who profits. Cooperative libraries need infrastructure that cannot be shut down and governance that stays with the community — but the tech to run that at consumer scale is nontrivial.

What we built

AR Data contributed engineering on Riff.cc's cooperative platform — content addressing, distributed retrieval, and governance tooling that makes user-owned libraries operationally viable.
