ZION DATUM PUBLIC BENEFIT CORPORATION
Public infrastructure for the households the system keeps missing.
Zion builds the consumer-controlled records primitive, the community platform that sits on top of it, and the civic infrastructure that follows — for the 56 million U.S. households at the ALICE Threshold. Bound by Charter. Held in perpetual purpose trust.
56M
Households · ALICE Threshold
U.S. working households earning above the federal poverty line but below the cost of living.
42%
Of all U.S. households
Combined ALICE-or-below share. The "missed middle" of the safety net.
$1.7T
Annual federal + state spend
On benefits the eligible population frequently can’t navigate, document, or hold continuous.

Consumer-owned record layers
No widely-adopted records primitive belongs to the member it’s about.
01 · WHO WE ARE
A public benefit corporation, bound by Charter, structured to outlast its founders.
MISSION TRUST
Held in perpetual purpose trust.
A trust — not a board majority — holds the company’s purpose. A Trust Advisory Board with community representation ratifies any change to it.
Read the trust instrument →02 · WHAT WE BUILD
Three products. One stack. Each one earns the right to build the next.
LP Account is the records primitive. OutPosts is the community platform on top of it. Oasis is what becomes possible when the first two are in the world at scale.
STAGE 01
LP Account
A cross-functional dashboard for social services, healthcare, certified classes, workforce training, and intake-to-care tracking. Records the member owns. Consent the member grants.
See LP Account →STAGE 02
OutPosts
The community platform that sits on top of LP Account. Partner orgs, members, and case managers meet in one place. Bound by the No Core Paywall Pledge.
See OutPosts →STAGE 03
Oasis
A post-Series-A creator-economy and civic-infrastructure expansion. A 5–10% commission band funds public goods inside the platform itself.
See Oasis →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.
-
Records & documents
The file cabinet the member owns — ID, income, immigration, housing, learning. Expiry-aware, share-by-grant.
-
Cliff planner
Predict and pre-empt benefits cliffs before a household earns its way into a smaller net.
-
Case-management workspace
Partner orgs work the same record set the member sees. No double entry. No re-asking the same question.
-
Community network
Member-facing OutPosts: classes, clinics, events, referrals. No core paywall, ever.
-
Creator economy
Practitioners, educators, and community businesses earn inside the platform — 5–10% commission supports public goods.
-
Civic infrastructure
Open APIs and procurement-ready endpoints for cities, counties, and foundations.

Mission cannot be sold. The structure is what makes that true.
CHARTER
The Charter
Public, enforceable constraints on every product surface — privacy, accessibility, transparency, no dark patterns.

Perpetual Purpose Trust
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.

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.
