Alliance
Not a SaaS account. A network.
PrivateCore Alliance will connect the businesses that use PrivateCore directly: your neighbours, your peers in the trade, with no marketplace in the middle. The network is in preparation, and its first members join by invitation.
The problem
You are alone with your SaaS.
Every month you pay for a till, CRM or booking subscription. And you never talk to the other customers of the same tool, even though they are exactly the people who could help you.
-
One subscription per tool
Per month, per site, per user. And each tool keeps your data to itself.
-
Your data travels far
Many business tools host your figures, customers and suppliers with large American cloud providers, subject to the Cloud Act.
-
Nobody talks
Thousands of businesses use the same software as you. None of them know each other, none of them help each other: the software is not built for that.
The promise
Alliance is the exact opposite.
Your data stays in your PrivateCore instance, on your Mac mini or on the server rented for you. With the Alliance, you will choose what you share and with whom: direct exchanges between businesses, with no marketplace and no commission.
- Sovereign
Only what you publish will leave your instance. Exchanges will go directly from one instance to another, encrypted by Tailscale (WireGuard), with no PrivateCore server in the middle.
- Connected
You will publish what you want to share: extra staff offers, stock, resources. Only the peers you approve will see it. The rest of your database stays invisible.
- Reciprocal
No free for one and paid for the other. You give as much as you receive: that is what keeps a network going over time.
How it will work
Three steps, no middleman.
The diagram shows where the data will travel: from one instance to another, and nowhere else.
- 01
You use PrivateCore
Online or on your Mac mini. Your business data (schedule, stock, accounting, customers) lives in your instance.
- 02
You are invited
You apply below. We put you in touch with the first members in your area, one by one.
- 03
You approve your peers
Every link takes two: you approve a peer, they approve you. You only share what you publish, and you can cut a link whenever you like.
Nothing you share will go through our servers: instances will talk to each other directly, encrypted end to end by WireGuard.
FAQ
Your questions, straight up.
-
How much does it cost?
The Alliance will be included in your PrivateCore subscription, with no commission on exchanges between peers. Whatever is exchanged (a shift, six packs, a group purchase) is settled between you. -
Does my data really go to the peers?
No. Only the offers you publish will be visible, and only to peers you have approved. No global aggregate, no telemetry. The rest of your database (customers, figures, detailed schedule) stays in your instance. -
What if I leave the Alliance?
You cut the link. Your peers immediately lose access to what you had published, and you keep the full PrivateCore app, without the network part. -
Which sectors does it suit?
Hotels, cafés and restaurants first: that is where the need for extra staff, stock help and group purchasing is sharpest. But also craftspeople, garages, shops and independent professionals with peers nearby. -
Who moderates the network?
Nobody centrally. Approval happens peer to peer: you decide who sees your offers. It is designed like a digital neighbourhood association, not a marketplace. -
Is it legal? Isn't exchanging between SMEs undeclared work?
Yes, as long as you stay within the usual rules: an extra is hired and declared like any employee, stock help between businesses is invoiced or returned and recorded in the accounts, a group purchase is set out in writing. The Alliance puts people in touch; it replaces neither the declaration nor the invoice.
