The home for abundant software.
Tallpond is a better way to use software. No subscriptions, no lock‑in, just simple, secure access to the tools you need.
Software should serve people — not the other way around.
Tallpond provides the foundation for a new generation of software — safe to trust, easy to use, and owned by no one but you.
Pennies, not plans
Pay only for what you use — by the penny. No seats, no tiers, no surprises. A quiet month costs almost nothing.
Your data stays yours
Your data lives with the platform, not inside any app. Inspect what each app stores and erase anything you own from one dashboard.
Nothing hidden
Tallpond is open source, pricing is public, and every charge is itemized. You can see how the platform works and exactly what you spend.
Fair.
Open.
Yours.
Trust begins when the user has real choice.
One account.
A whole pond of apps.
No per-app sign-ups, no payment forms, no surprise invoices. You keep the data, the receipts, and the off switch.
-
Create your account
Sign up once, free. Your account comes with a small credit, so you can start using apps right away.
-
Open any app
Every app in the pond works with your one account. No new passwords, no new billing details, ever.
-
See exactly what you spend
Every cent is itemized as it happens. Set a monthly limit for any app — or set it to zero to switch it off.
We build things because they're useful, interesting, or just fun to make.
Often times the things we build require multi-user interactions or just need to be easily accessible to deliver on their potential value.
This type of software needs a company backing it.
- Payments
- Storage
- Compute
- Auth
- Support
- Liability
- Marketing
- Runway
- …the list goes on
And that means an immense amount of valuable software either needs to be designed in a way that extracts from the end user, or the software can't exist in the first place.
Not anymore.
With Tallpond, you can just build things. Your users bring their own account, data, and spend. Tallpond does the rest.
Software is becoming abundant.
Let's keep it open.
As software gets cheaper to create, it needs a fair place to live — cheap to use, safe to trust, and owned by no one but you. That's what we're building here.
