ZION DATUM PUBLIC BENEFIT CORPORATION

Public infrastructure for the households the system keeps missing.

For 56 million U.S. households, one missed form or expired document can mean losing help they already qualify for. Zion builds the record a family owns and controls, the shared space where the people who serve them work from it, and the public systems that follow. Bound by a public Charter. Held in a Mission Trust.

01 · WHO WE ARE

A public benefit corporation, bound by Charter, structured to outlast its founders.

CHARTER

Mission cannot be sold.

Every part of the product is bound by a public Charter. No tracking. No manipulative design. No paywall on the core service. Any breach is visible.

Read the Charter

MISSION TRUST

Held by the Mission Trust.

A trust, not a board majority, holds the company’s purpose. A Trust Advisory Board with community representation ratifies any change to it.

02 · WHAT WE BUILD

Three products, built in order. Each one earns the right to build the next.

LP Account is the record a household owns. OutPosts is the shared space built on top of it. Oasis is what becomes possible once the first two are widely used.

STAGE 01

LP Account

One place for social services, healthcare, certified classes, and workforce training, from first intake through care. The household owns the record and decides who can see it.

See LP Account

STAGE 02

OutPosts

A shared space built on top of LP Account, where partner organizations, families, and case managers meet. Bound by the No Core Paywall Pledge.

See OutPosts

STAGE 03

Oasis

A later stage where practitioners and community businesses earn on the platform, and a 5–10% commission funds public goods inside it.

03 · HOW IT FITS TOGETHER

A single ledger of capabilities, layered intentionally over three stages.

  • Intake & eligibility

    A single intake that screens against the programs a household is plausibly eligible for, with consent.

    STAGE 01
  • Records & documents

    The file cabinet the member owns, ID, income, immigration, housing, learning. Expiry-aware, share-by-grant.

    STAGE 01
  • Cliff planner

    Predict and pre-empt benefits cliffs before a household earns its way into a smaller net.

    STAGE 01
  • Case-management workspace

    Partner orgs work the same record set the member sees. No double entry. No re-asking the same question.

    STAGE 02
  • Community network

    Member-facing OutPosts: classes, clinics, events, referrals. No core paywall, ever.

    STAGE 02
  • Creator economy

    Practitioners, educators, and community businesses earn inside the platform, 5–10% commission supports public goods.

    STAGE 03
  • Public infrastructure

    Open, ready-to-adopt connections that cities, counties, and foundations can plug into through normal purchasing.

    STAGE 03

04 · TWO TRACKS, ONE COMPANY

A foundation-track and a venture-track that converge on the same product roadmap.

FOR · FOUNDATIONS

$5.5M · 3-year horizon

Catalytic capital to build LP Account, the record each household owns, and the Mission Trust that keeps it locked to that purpose. Documentation built for program officers, not pitch decks.

05 · TRUST ARCHITECTURE

Mission cannot be sold. The structure is what makes that true.

CHARTER

The Charter

Public, enforceable limits on every part of the product, privacy, accessibility, transparency, no manipulative design.

Read it

MISSION TRUST

Purpose held in perpetuity

A trust, with a Trust Advisory Board including community representation, holds the company’s purpose in perpetuity.

How it works

NO CORE PAYWALL

No Core Paywall Pledge

The core consumer record layer is free, forever. Premium surfaces never gate eligibility, documents, or care continuity.

06 · OPEN FOR DILIGENCE

If the structure is right, the rest follows. Let’s talk.

The data room is shared on request. Investor and foundation materials are linked from each track’s page; nothing is gated behind a form.
