About
We built this because we wanted one ourselves.
Encrypted Energy's run by a small group of independent developers. We don't take outside funding. We picked GPL-3.0 because the software runs on your hardware on your network, and you should be able to read every line of it.
Open Bluetooth networks are genuinely interesting infrastructure: satellite-and-ground positioning systems for BLE devices that no fleet of smartphones was ever going to fully cover. We wanted there to be an easy way for self-hosters to help fill in the gaps, so we wrote one and put it on the Umbrel community store. Hubble Network's the first network we serve; more will follow.
That's the whole pitch. It runs on your closet hardware, costs nothing, the source is public, and your packets get where they're going.
Who we are.
Day-to-day, Encrypted Energy's run by John Marbach with help from a rotating bench of contributors at the gateway repository.
