The real cost

The platforms are not on your side

Data that belongs to someone else. Algorithms that bury your content without warning. Communities that disappear when a platform decides they should.

The cost isn’t always visible, until it is.

Who owns your data is not a technical question. It’s a political one.

Your mission is too important to build on borrowed ground.

Portrait of Natacha Wilson

I have been working with Anne for a few years on my website development and system integration. I trust her completely and value her advice tremendously. Anne's expertise is impressive and she also brings a high level of professionalism, working on urgent and important priorities swiftly. Anne is also developed a great way to keep on track by using Trello to prioritise tasks and track progress. Thank you Anne for all your support over the years!

The approach

You bring the mission - I bring the infrastructure and the values to match

Done with Circle, Skool, Kajabi, Systeme, or Facebook Groups? Good. There’s a more honest way to build.

A Fluent Community website on WordPress: self-hosted, open source, yours to keep. Not the cheapest path at first. But built on infrastructure you control, with tools that respect your people.

Two decades in research science and data infrastructure. Another decade living the alternative. It’s why I build the way I build.
