Hey Edge City
Welcome to Your Private Internet

This is your Clan. A space that belongs to the community. A home that you can build together. Connect, share, collaborate.

Peer-to-Peer is hard!

But it doesn’t have to be.
Walled gardens and network complexity make P2P systems difficult to build and intimidating to use. Clan’s goal is to make systems simple and legible: a community garden where anyone can plant seeds.

Full functionality,
fully open source

Your Clan hosts open source apps for encrypted chat, cloud-free file sharing, and a full office suite. Add docs to a shared folder to collaborate!

An internet full of
people you know IRL.

Connected computers talk to each other directly, over a peer-to-peer mesh VPN - a private network that only Edge City residents can access.

Automated, peer-to-peer
updates and backups

Choose your source of truth and update your machine with a simple command. Restore any time from encrypted backups stored by peers.

Human-readable
configuration

Pre-loaded configuration files provide an easy-to-navigate layer over complex settings that you’re free to explore and modify.

Built by the community,
for the community.

Build collaboratively in a shared local repo. Community-built P2P apps can be packaged to run over the Edge Clan network.

Automated
secret management

Sensitive data like passwords and keys are securely stored and shared

01


In the early days of the internet and personal computing, users had full control over their digital experiences, fostering innovation and collaboration in an open, decentralized environment.

02


Over the past two decades, a concerning shift occurred: computers and smartphones evolved into increasingly closed systems, while a handful of tech companies carved up the once-open internet.

03


Users traded control and ownership for seamless experiences and access to powerful, free applications. Opting out is possible, but convenience is highly persuasive.

This transformation
has led to several pressing issues that we face today

Unprecented collection and monetization of personal data

Undermining of communities and personal relationships

Manipulative algorithms designed to influence behavior

Despite growing awareness,
there is still a lack of clear, practical solutions to change course.
