Supported by infrastructure and developer platform partners that share an interest in a more open, accessible internet.

What we build

Infrastructure for access and reliability.

The organization operates systems close to the internet stack. The work spans domains, DNS, APIs, open-source data, and operational safety, with a focus on public access and long-term usefulness.

Domain infrastructure

Global domain provisioning and management systems designed to keep online access affordable, practical, and widely available.

DNS systems

Distributed DNS infrastructure built for reliability, safety, and long-term operation.

Developer platforms

APIs and tools that help developers and teams work with infrastructure more easily.

Open-source infrastructure

Open-source projects that keep core internet tooling available as shared infrastructure.

Abuse monitoring and operations

Systems for abuse response, automation, and operational safety that protect communities while keeping services usable.

Core infrastructure projects

Programs built to hold up in public.

Each project is run like real infrastructure, with attention to uptime, correctness, automation, and long-term public usefulness.

Global domain platform

FreeDomain

Domain access infrastructure at global scale.

FreeDomain provides free subdomains to developers, students, and community builders around the world who need a path online without upfront cost.

Automated domain provisioning
DNS configuration
Abuse detection and mitigation
Large-scale traffic across distributed systems

What began as an access experiment has grown into production infrastructure serving hundreds of thousands of users across the public internet.

Core principle

Domain access should not depend on capital.

Licensing data platform

OpenSource.ngo

Open-source licensing infrastructure.

OpenSource.ngo provides structured, canonical open-source license data synchronized from SPDX so maintainers, researchers, and teams can rely on a clear public reference.

167+ licenses with verified provenance
Clean, structured data for developers
A reliable source of truth for open-source licensing

The project treats licensing as infrastructure rather than leaving critical information scattered across the web.

Next steps include license comparison systems, structured analysis tools, and governance support for maintainers and teams.

Core principle

Open licensing data should stay public and usable.

Infrastructure philosophy

A simple approach.

The operating model is straightforward: build useful systems, keep them open where possible, run them well, and keep them available.

Access to core internet tools should not depend on wealth or geography.

Infrastructure should be open where possible.

Useful systems should be built to last.

Why it exists

The internet belongs to everyone.

DigitalPlat is built on a simple idea: access to basic infrastructure should not be limited by cost, geography, or institutional access.

By lowering the barriers to getting online, DigitalPlat enables individuals, students, and independent builders to create, publish, and participate on their own terms.

In many parts of the world, the hardest step is simply getting started: having a domain, a working system, and a place to build.

Our goal is to make that first step easier and more widely available, so more people can take part in the open internet. Over time, that helps reduce digital inequality and supports a more accessible, resilient web.

Founder story

I started DigitalPlat when I was 15.

What began as an experiment to understand how the internet works has grown into infrastructure used by hundreds of thousands of people worldwide.
