Open tools for seeing clearly.
Free, open-source software for witnessing, taking part, holding power to account, staying safe, and owning your data — and whatever the moment calls for next. Different tools, one throughline: find the signal, check the record, keep control of your own information.
Our projects are built for the moments when information is scattered, filtered, hard to verify, or held by someone else.
We make tools that gather without obscuring, explain without persuading, and give people more control over what they can see and use. Every project is public and forkable. Some are mature, some are still growing — all of them are built to be useful well beyond our own walls.
WOKE Network
TOPEYE's flagship, and the umbrella for our livestreaming work. Since May 2020 it has been a real-time hub for streams from demonstrations and public events — helping people find live sources, follow what's happening, and preserve the record after the stream ends.
Under the hood it's a small open stack: Streamwall curates and composes the live sources, Streamdelay can add a broadcast delay to redact sensitive content before it airs, and Anchor — a lightweight site with encrypted Matrix chat — is what viewers actually load at woke.net. Open protocols, no corporate infrastructure.
Streamwall
Streamwall composes multiple livestreams into a single feed — with source attribution and audio control built in. It's made for the moments when one camera isn't enough: breaking news, demonstrations, community monitoring, research, collaborative viewing.
Technically it's a specialized browser: an Electron app that loads each source as a tile, finds the video on the page, and reformats it to fill the frame — so it works across a huge range of sites with no custom scrapers. A TypeScript v2 is in progress.
Turnout
Understand your elections at every level — from president down to school board — then help the people you care about understand theirs. No account, nothing to sign up for: search your location and see what's actually on your ballot.
Turnout is public civic infrastructure with provenance: every detail is cited back to its official source of record, so it informs without persuading. A companion canvassing app (canvass.turnout.app) extends it from knowing your ballot to organizing around it.
Stood
Stood is a searchable public-record index built around a plain idea: we may not know where someone stands today, but we can know where they stood. Public statements, votes, filings, and records should be easy to find, compare, and cite.
It indexes the record into a searchable database so people can ask better questions — accountability without theater. Find the source, follow the evidence, and keep every claim tied to its receipt.
DeepEye
DeepEye is self-hosted personal-data intelligence. It brings data together from 40+ sources and helps you analyze it privately, without handing the whole picture to a third party. Email, messages, photos, location, finances, health — useful to you, without becoming someone else's product.
It also ships step-by-step guides to request and export your data from every major platform — because owning your data starts with actually getting it back. Open source and privacy-first: insight without surrender.
Protest Guide
Know your rights. Stay safe. Take action. Protest Guide is a plain-language resource for anyone heading to a demonstration — constitutional rights, safety protocols, digital security, and a pre-protest checklist, all in one place.
It points to trusted help, too — legal support from the National Lawyers Guild and ACLU, and digital-security guidance from the EFF.
Something new is coming.
We're developing another open-source project in the same spirit: practical, public, and built around information people should be able to use for themselves. More details when the shape is clearer.
