About

Welcome to Subvert's Organizational Documentation

Subvert is a cooperative working to build an online marketplace where artists and labels can sell music and merchandise directly to their supporters. Our goal is to provide a comprehensive and transparent look into how we operate as a collectively owned music platform.

This documentation offers insights into our:

• Organizational structure
• Governance model
• Long-term vision
• Operational processes

We believe in the power of open knowledge and shared ownership. By documenting our journey, we aim to inspire others to reimagine how online platforms can be owned and operated.

Whether you're an artist, supporter, label, or someone interested in alternative ownership models for online platforms, we invite you to explore and learn from our approach.

Together, we're building a model for how online services can be structured to be owned and controlled by the communities they serve. Join us in shaping the future of artist-owned infrastructure.

These documents represent our current vision and plans for Subvert. However, it's crucial to understand that this is a living document — a starting point rather than a final destination.
