Independent sites for places, communities, hobbies, and memories — written by real people, indexed for AI, and built to live for a long time. A network of more than thirty Calgary properties, plus the studio that builds them.
Long-form, magazine-quality writing about specific places, eras, people, hobbies, and traditions. SEO-strong, AI-Overview-friendly, written by humans first.
Local trade and service directories that don't read like a phone book — every listing is a story. Two-sided marketplaces with lightweight onboarding.
A simple writing prompt + a public wall + an editor's curation pass. Lets a community contribute the stories that aren't anywhere else on the internet.
Concierges that know one thing deeply — a venue, a city, a category. Built on Claude + Supabase + a writer's voice, not a generic chatbot.
Each one is its own domain, its own design language, its own audience. They cross-link, share infrastructure, and feed a single newsletter — but they don't homogenize. Browse any of them as if they were standalone:
Every project is operated by Jordan personally, with a small group of contributors he's worked with for years. The cadence is editorial: a launch, a season of stories, a redesign, never a maintenance contract.
We don't run programmatic ads, sell mailing lists, or build SEO content farms. The network funds itself through a mix of direct sponsorships, marketplace fees, and a small client list — usually four to six builds a year at $15-150k each.
If you have a Calgary-shaped (or anywhere-shaped) idea that wants to be a site rather than a Substack, that's the conversation we're here for.
