Digital infrastructure for organizations and communities

Build digital organizations with members, roles, governance, services and their own economy - on a public, permissionless blockchain.

Experience the organization, not the blockchain.

Model your organization around the way it actually works.

Locality models your organization through three connected levels: Community, Team and Sub-team.

Community

The root organizational unit.

Team

A functional group within a Community.

Sub-team

A more specific functional scope within a Team.

Each scope can have its own members, roles, voting, booking, queues and services.

If your organization has members, roles, rules and services, Locality can model it.

One organization. One connected infrastructure.

Organizations often rely on different tools for membership, communication, decision-making, bookings, payments and services.

Each tool solves a specific problem, but the organization itself becomes fragmented across them.

Locality connects these capabilities through one shared organizational model.

  • Members
  • Roles
  • Governance
  • Services
  • Economy

Fewer isolated tools. One common model.

Your organization, modeled as a Community.

A Community is the root organizational unit in Locality. It provides the foundation for an organization to structure its people, roles, decisions, services and economy.

Teams and Sub-teams create more specific functional scopes within the organization. Each scope can operate with its own members, roles, governance and services.

  • Community
    • Team
      • Sub-team
    • Team
      • Sub-team

Every Community has its own Community Token, and its own account pays the network fees for its members' actions.

One identity. Different roles.

Locality connects your account, blockchain address, profile, memberships and roles within the network.

Members can belong to Communities, Teams and Sub-teams, depending on how the organization is structured.

Roles define what members can do within each organizational scope. The same person can have different roles and permissions in different scopes.

The same person can be a Member in one scope and an Admin in another.

Turn organizational rules into real actions.

Communities, Teams and Sub-teams can run governance and services within their own scope, using roles and permissions to define who can participate and what they can do.

Voting

Run public or anonymous votes with role-based participation. Anonymous voting uses zero-knowledge proofs to keep the voter's choice private while making the result verifiable and preventing double voting.

Explore voting

Appointments

Let members book appointments for the services available to them. Slots can be one-to-one or shared, with a waitlist when a shared slot fills up.

Explore appointments

Queues

Manage demand with queues and organized service flows. Members join a real-time line and are called when it is their turn.

Explore queues

From decisions to everyday services, the organization operates within the same infrastructure.

Give your Community its own economy.

Every Community has its own Community Token for internal transfers, services and community-driven economic activity.

Communities can issue and manage their own token, while members can receive and transfer it within the network.

All blockchain operations use $LOCA for network transaction fees. The Community pays these fees for its members, who can use Community services without managing network fees themselves.

Community Token = your Community's economy.

$LOCA = the native token of the Locality Network.

One network. Many organizations.

Locality provides the same underlying infrastructure for different types of organizations - from municipalities and universities to associations, cooperatives, clubs and events.

The structure changes. The underlying model remains the same.

Citizen participation

A city can use a Community to organize residents, participating organizations and public services around shared decisions and participation.

Universities / institutions

Universities and institutions can organize members, roles, governance and services across different departments, groups or programs.

Events / venues

An event company can structure an event as a Community, organize areas as Teams and Sub-teams, and use a Community Token for internal services and transactions.

Local economies

A town can issue its own Community Token and use it in local programs, such as vouchers for local shops or rewards for taking part in town life, so the value residents receive circulates in the town.

Other

  • Associations
  • Cooperatives
  • Sports clubs
  • Companies
  • Community organizations

Different organizations. One underlying model.

Use Locality without the blockchain complexity.

Easy App gives members a familiar web experience for joining Communities, participating in governance, using services and interacting with their organization.

Members can register with an email or phone number and a password.

Access your Communities, memberships, roles, governance and services through a single application.

The blockchain handles the underlying transactions and records while the app provides the everyday user experience.

  1. Member
  2. Easy App
  3. Locality infrastructure
  4. Blockchain

The blockchain stays underneath the experience.

Interact with Locality in natural language.

Ask questions, get information and execute supported actions through a natural-language interface.

Ask

Get information about your Communities, memberships, roles, votes, appointments, queues and services.

Agent

Execute supported actions through natural-language commands, subject to your existing roles and permissions.

Same network. Same permissions. Different interface.

You write. Locality executes - within your existing permissions.

Why blockchain?

Blockchain is not the product. It is the trust layer underneath it.

Locality uses a public, permissionless blockchain to make organizational activity verifiable, traceable and independently auditable.

Verifiable

Actions and records can be independently verified against the network.

Transparent

Network activity can be inspected and audited rather than existing only inside a private application database.

Persistent

Records are maintained by the network rather than depending entirely on a single application's database.

Permissionless

Applications can interact with the network without requiring approval from a single platform operator.

The organization defines the rules. Locality provides the infrastructure to make them verifiable.

One network. Many applications.

Locality is designed as a public, permissionless network that applications can connect to and build on.

Build different experiences on the same organizational infrastructure.

Communities, memberships, roles, governance, services and blockchain records remain connected through the same network.

Path A

  1. Developer App
  2. Socket.IO
  3. Wallet Server
  4. CosmJS
  5. Locality Blockchain

Applications can use Locality's Wallet Server as an integration layer for blockchain operations.

Path B

  1. Developer App
  2. CosmJS
  3. Locality Blockchain

Applications can also connect directly to the Locality blockchain using their own infrastructure.

The Wallet Server is an integration option, not a requirement of the network.

Different applications. One network. Shared organizational infrastructure.

Build on Locality.

Build new experiences without rebuilding the organizational infrastructure underneath them.

Connect your application to Communities, Members, Roles, Governance, Services and Community Tokens through the Locality Network.

Locality Network is built with Cosmos SDK and designed for independent application integration.

Public. Permissionless. Built for applications.

The native token of Locality Network

$LOCA is the native token of the Locality Network, used to pay transaction fees on the blockchain.

Every blockchain operation requires a network fee paid in $LOCA.

Communities pay these fees for their members, who do not need to manage the network cost themselves.

  1. Community
  2. Community Token
  3. Community economy
  1. Locality Network
  2. $LOCA
  3. Network transaction fees

$LOCA powers the network. Community Tokens power Community economies.

What's next for Locality?

Build what your organization needs.

Experience Locality through the Easy App, or build your own application on the network.

Experience the organization, not the blockchain.
