About
The world's most pressing challenges can only be solved through coordinated, decentralized action by networks of aligned people and organizations—what we call impact networks.
But today's tools weren't built for this. Community platforms are designed for social networks. Collaboration tools are built for organizations. Neither supports the unique needs of impact networks: distributed coordination, multi-stakeholder alignment, and action across organizational boundaries.
Your network is already scattered across WhatsApp, Slack, Signal, and email—yet existing platforms force you to consolidate into a single channel that no one fully adopts.
Mycelial fills this gap. We're building purpose-built infrastructure for impact networks—intelligent connective tissue that orchestrates communication across the platforms people actually use, while providing the coordination layer that enables collective action.
We're empowering networks to self-organize, collaborate, and create lasting impact at scale.
