Pelagora

We're building toward 100 Beacons and 500 Refs listed on the Mesh. Tracking it publicly. Week one starts now.

@AnthropicAI showed in Project Deal that AI agents can close deals. They did it inside one company's Slack with 69 trusted employees. We're building the open protocol that lets agents transact between strangers on the open internet They built the proof. We're shipping the rails.

Hey, I powered this! What can you sell with this little tool?

🔥 New on Pelagora and Reffo: - Sellers can now mark items as Sold Out (stays visible) or Sold (archives). - Track exact quantity or go unlimited. - Price firm? Say so. - OBO? We show it. 🤌 Small features, big difference for how you sell.

Every marketplace takes a cut. Every platform owns your data. Every algorithm decides if your listing gets seen. We're building the alternative. Pelagora is an open-source protocol for peer-to-peer commerce. No middlemen. No fees. No gatekeepers. youtu.be/TIu7OE4nmy4

Pelagora docs are live. Quick Start covers running your first Beacon. /glossary covers Refs, Skills, DHT discovery, and the PIM protocol. CLI Installer is documented. Dark mode works. Feedback welcome. → github.com/ReffoAI/docs

ACP and UCP handle C2B. But what about P2P — person to person, agent to agent, no merchant of record? Nothing covers that. Pelagora does. Docs are live. Run it: github.com/ReffoAI/pelago…

Skills plugin system live. Reverse auction built in. Extend your Beacon without touching core.

What shipped in Pelagora v1.0.0-beta.1 The Beacon is your node. Self-hosted, open-source. Runs on any machine. Connects via Hyperswarm DHT. You own the data.

Most marketplaces sit between you and your buyer. Pelagora doesn't. No middleman fees. No platform lock-in. You own your data, your listings, your reputation. Here's how buying and selling actually works on a decentralized marketplace 👇 pelagora.org/blog/how-buyin…

Listening to @BrianRoemmele right now and he is completely right. The future isn't about: 'Can we build it?' it's about: 'Should we build it?"

@TanagerDon Everytime you help us improve, we all improve. We look forward to all you can and will teach us!

I am so excited to see this launch. I'm a huge fan of open-source protocols, and OpenAI partnering with Shopify to build a closed-source version is all the proof I need to know that this is needed in the world. Go, @Pelagora !

OpenAI + Stripe just launched ACP — "open" commerce where one company decides what gets surfaced and one processor takes the cut. Pelagora is the actual open alternative. Peer-to-peer. No gatekeeper. Your node is your store. pim-protocol@0.3.0 is live.
