Email, calendar, and files on a server you own. Your data is yours. Installed in minutes.
The same jobs, done on hardware you control. One install, one login, one place to back up.
Get the same look and features you are used to, but keep your data and your privacy.
Shared calendars, recurring entries, and reminder or daily-summary emails.
Files stored as ordinary files. Photo backup, thumbnails, and optional end-to-end encryption.
One address book behind mail and calendar. Bring the vCards you already have; take them with you whenever you like.
Registration, waiting lists, recurring schedules.
Let people book time without a third-party service.
Your own model, on your own hardware.
Sell products and subscriptions from your server.
Backups, upgrades, and fleet management.
Every service you left behind has the same shape: a fee that only goes up, a plan that decides what you are allowed to do, and a policy saying they may stop serving you whenever they like. That shape is renting. Joinery has none of it.
Free to self-host, permanently, for you and your household. No monthly fee, no renewal date, no card on file, and nothing that stops working if you stop paying, because personal use is free. Businesses buy a licence once; it is priced per company, never per person.
There is no starter edition, because there is nothing to upgrade to. Mail, calendar, drive, contacts, events, bookings and the AI assistant are the product, and you get all of it.
There is no acceptable-use policy governing your own server. Nothing you store is scanned, classified, or scored. Your install does not report to us.
Stop worrying that you'll say one wrong thing and have your entire digital life taken from you. On your own server there is no flag to trip and no appeal to lose, because there is nobody above you.
True, a hosting provider can still refuse you service. But when your mail, files and calendar sit on a machine you rent by the month, in formats anything can read, just take your backup and move somewhere else.
None of this depends on us being decent. Joinery runs on your hardware, the data is in formats you can read without us, and there is no account for anyone to close.
Most privacy software encrypts what it stores and keeps the key next to it. That protects you from a stolen laptop and from nothing else. Joinery puts the key behind your passkey instead. Even someone who gains access to your server can't read your encrypted email.
Stored messages, subjects, attachments and even the search index are encrypted to a key that exists only as something your passkey can unwrap. Touch the key, an unlock window opens, and it closes again on its own.
Turn a domain up to its highest security setting and the key that signs your outgoing mail is encrypted too. Inbound mail is encrypted by a relay before it ever reaches your machine. Even a fully compromised server cannot read new mail or send as you.
When both sides run Joinery and are in each other's contact lists , emails and messages are encrypted end-to-end. Nothing in the middle ever holds a copy it could read, hand over, or lose.
Joinery provides self hosted security, logins protected by a password and two factor authentication, and enterprise grade encryption that few other mail providers can offer. Only Proton Mail can compare.
Bring your data, keep the address you actually want, and stop being one automated flag away from losing all of it.
Maybe Nextcloud doesn't suit your needs. Maybe you want something more secure.
One server, everyone's mail and calendar, and somewhere for the photos that is not somebody's training data.
Same software, same ownership, whichever rung you pick. Your server, your data, in every case.
Optional, paid once, and never in the way of the free suite.
We want to change the world by empowering people with their own data.
Joinery is in beta. The suite is in daily use, and it is honest to call some parts younger than others. The desktop sync client and mobile apps are still pre-release. Every page on this site labels maturity where it matters.
It is built mostly by one developer, in the open. You can follow development on github. We are laser focused on providing software on fair terms that lets everyone walk away happy.
Real things already run on it. ScrollDaddy, a commercial DNS filtering service with paying customers, is built entirely as a Joinery plugin. Accounts, billing, scheduled tasks and all. So is this website.
You can check every claim we make in the code. That is the point of software you run yourself: nothing here depends on trusting us.
Free to self-host, forever. $39.99 if you would rather have the afternoon back.
