Our Vision, Mission, and Values

At CommonAlly, we are transforming data ownership into a democratic and capitalistic force for all things good. Our formula is based on simple, everlasting principles:

  • No one should own our data but us;
  • The value of our data is dictated by market demand and need;
  • Organizations, businesses, and governments can access data based on individual consent.  
    Everyone can create and reshape their identity - online or in person.

Our Vision

A future where scalable impact and data transformation act as connective forces, empowering individuals to shape an equitable world.

Our Mission

At CommonAlly, we are transforming data ownership into a connective force. Our mission is to enable people to reclaim control over their data, foster transparent connections between individuals and movements, and contribute to a fairer, balanced, and prosperous world.

Our Core Values

Responsibility

We act with integrity and care.

We are responsible for our emotions and our reactions. We believe kindness begets kindness. And that feeling anger does not warrant meanness.

Our community’s data is more than just a priceless commodity - it is a complete mirror of how an individual

Hope

We foster hope among our team and community.

Hopefulness powers curiosity. Hope looks into people’s eyes. Hope is inquisitive and fuels our courage to take risks. We respond to the status quo with a there-must-be-a-better-way kind of hope.

Empowered

We act with accountability and respect.

When we picture an empowered person, we see a person confident in who and how they are; accountable for their words and actions; respected and respectful; and constantly evolving.

As empowered individuals, we understand the power of language and use it wisely.

Empowerment looks like empathy; it looks like seeking to understand the unfamiliar; it is knowing yourself deeply and listening intently to others so you can know them, too.

Revolution

We give trillions of silent data points a commanding voice.

Revolution is two things at once: it is the act of building a new - better - system; and it is about the completion of a cycle.

Revolution is taking action and completing it. Stepping into the unknown and getting comfortable with the uncomfortable. Its evolution and resolution mushed together: a new way of being, resolved to be until it’s time to begin again. CommonAlly is building a new - better - system. This is our revolution.

Equity

We understand that equity ensures everyone gets access to the shoe that fits them.


We are building a world where everyone has access to equal opportunities and resources. We are creating an essential space that allows all people to give - or revoke - consent to their data or perspective.

We stand up for our friends, the bullied, and those who need others in their fight. We stop for the broken down car, the person who falls, the kid who cries, the grandparent who sits alone. When we have an equitable system, we strive to always do better for the greater good.

Create A Better Future With Us

We’re looking for movements, organizations and folks that want to make the world a place future generations can be proud of.
