About FreedomCore
Where It Started
FreedomCore started in a real estate office in British Columbia, Canada.
The founder runs Landmax, a real estate company where agents juggle a dozen web apps every day: MLS, BC Assessment, Google Maps, CRM, DocuSign, email. Each app runs in its own browser tab. They don’t share data. They don’t share screen space. Copy/paste is the integration layer.
The first solution was a dashboard — panels with draggable splitters, each panel showing a different app stripped of its bloat. CSS injection hides navigation and ads. JS injection extracts the hidden data and bridges it between panels. Click a property in MLS, and the address flows to every other panel automatically.
That worked for one office. But it was hard-coded and fragile.
Then the realization: “If I have this problem, every other professional has this problem.” Lawyers, accountants, medical staff, project managers — the same pattern (too many apps, no data sharing), just different tools.
Then collaboration was needed. Chat, video, shared cursors, multi-user editing. Which meant a P2P network. Which meant trust — knowing who’s on the other end.
A decade of iteration followed: Electron, Pear/Holepunch, Tauri, a parade of frontend frameworks (jQuery, Polymer, Vue, Svelte). Each promised productivity but delivered learning curves. The current approach: vanilla HTML/CSS/JS, platform-native shells, and Nebula for the network.
That’s FreedomCore.
What We’re Building
A platform where:
- Your existing apps work together — panels, data bridging, shared views
- Your group controls the infrastructure — your lighthouse, your data, your rules
- People are verified — video handshake, face to face, not a password or email
- The community writes the integrations — TPA recipes, not proprietary connectors
Three layers, designed as one: FreedomDesktop (the orchestrator), FreedomMesh (the encrypted network), Trust (verified humans).
Built by Acumen Desktop
FreedomCore is built by Acumen Desktop, a small software company in BC, Canada.

Not a Startup
FreedomCore is not a startup seeking exit. It’s infrastructure for communities. No VC. No growth hacks. No enshittification timeline. Build something useful, keep it running, stay small.
