Your Moderation
Your rules, your team.
Define the policies that matter to your community, then hand your team the tools to enforce them. Your standards, not Instagram's trust and safety defaults.

Need more or less than any of the current plans? Get in contact with us and we’ll tailor a plan to your community.
Blacksky started as a set of community feeds. Then came moderation tools, a member directory, a dedicated server, and eventually a full community client. Acorn is everything we built for ourselves — packaged so you can build for yours.
Community Feeds
Custom feeds to give the community a shared timeline.
Moderation Tools
We built our own moderation tools and policies that aligned with our values.
Dedicated Server
Infrastructure to own the community's data and identity.
Custom Client
Our own client, tailored for the community.
Stop renting. Start building.
