TWO TYPES OF COMMUNITIES. ONE PLATFORM.

TELL US WHICH FITS YOUR SITUATION — WE’LL SHOW YOU HOW COMMUNITY BUILDER WORKS FOR YOU.

FOR COMMUNITY ORGANIZATIONS

A STRUCTURED HOME FOR EVERY GROUP
THAT MATTERS TO YOUR MISSION.

Whether you’re leading a faith congregation, a civic network, a nonprofit, or a professional association — Community Builder gives your distributed membership dedicated spaces, private communication, and organization-wide alignment. Built for trust. Closed by design.

01

Faith Communities

A trusted private space for congregations, study circles, and ministries. Coordinate events, give committees their own Water Hole rooms, and keep leadership conversations private from the broader membership.

02

Civic & Advocacy Groups

Organize across committees and neighborhoods. Use group rooms for sub-team coordination, the community hub for full-network alignment, and peer DMs for one-on-one outreach — no public platform needed.

03

Professional Networks

Masterminds, alumni groups, cohorts, and associations. Focused groups with their own meeting rooms, a private line for every member, and leadership in full control of the whole community.

04

Non-Profits & Mission-Driven Orgs

Your organization deserves infrastructure as serious as your mission. Community Builder gives nonprofits the structure to connect staff, volunteers, and leadership — without the noise of public social platforms.

FOR REMOTE & DISTRIBUTED TEAMS

Every squad gets its own space.
No Slack needed.

Running a distributed business team? Community Builder gives every squad, department, or cross-functional group a dedicated Water Hole meeting room, group chat channel, and direct messaging — all inside the same platform where your goals and projects live.

01

Squads & departments

Marketing team, dev squad, leadership circle — every group gets its own private space with a dedicated Water Hole meeting room. Always available. No link to send. No separate Zoom account needed.

02

Cross-functional teams

Bring together people from different parts of your organization for a project or initiative — without pulling them into a general channel where everything gets lost. Contained, focused, and private.

03

Company-wide alignment

The community hub gives leadership a broadcast channel for announcements and a meeting room for all-hands sessions — while every sub-team keeps their own private space underneath it.

04

Connected to your strategy

Unlike Slack or ROAM, Community Builder lives inside DI68 — so every conversation is happening in the same platform as the goals, projects, and tasks those conversations are about. Context never gets lost.

HOW IT WORKS

THREE TIERS. ONE PLATFORM. TOTAL CONTROL.

Community Builder is structured around three distinct communication layers — each with its own purpose, privacy level, and set of tools. Every tier connects, and every tier stays private by design.

Tier 1

PEER TO PEER
Private peer-to-peer chat

Direct, secure messaging between any two members — no group, no audience, just two people communicating privately.

Private encrypted direct messages

Visible only to the two participants
Share files and media one-on-one
    No admin access to private
conversations
Works within any community or
group context

Best for: Mentorship conversations, private coordination, sensitive discussions between trusted members.

Tier 2

GROUPS
Groups with Water Holes

Dedicated spaces for committees, teams, or cohorts — with their own chat, files, and a private meeting room built in.

Private group chat for members
only

   Dedicated Water Hole meeting
room per group
File sharing within the group space
    Group-level announcements &
       updates
Admin controls for membership & permissions
Multiple groups within one
       community

Best for: Committees, project teams, ministry circles, squads — any subset that needs their own space.

Tier 3

COMMUNITY HUB
Community hub with admin controls

The top-level home for your entire network — housing all groups, all members, and a community-wide meeting room.

Community-wide meeting room for all members

    Admin-controlled broadcasts & announcements
Houses all groups and direct members
     Full membership management & permissions
Invite-only access — no public joins ever
Community-level file sharing & resources

Best for: Your full organization — the single source of truth where everyone comes together.

PLATFORM ARCHITECTURE

HOW THE THREE LAYERS FIT TOGETHER

Every group can stand alone, or multiple groups can live inside the community. Every member can chat privately. Every tier connects — with the right level of privacy and control at each layer.

DECISION 168 - Community Builder & Remote Teams Connect Space

PART OF THE D168 BUSINESS OPERATING SYSTEM

COMMUNITY BUILDER IS ONE LAYER OF
A COMPLETE PLATFORM

The same platform where your community connects is where your goals are tracked, your projects run, and — for those ready to go deeper — the ConnectWork network is available to connect with independent operators who’ve built what you’re building.

Goals & Strategy

Keep your community’s mission visible and your priorities aligned — not just connected.

Projects & Accountability

Turn community conversations into coordinated action with clear ownership and progress tracking.

ConnectWork Network

Tap into a curated network of independent operators — bookable inside the platform for 1:1 sessions.

D168 gave our distributed team and student community a structured home — dedicated spaces for every group, private communication, and the kind of organizational infrastructure we couldn’t have built with any group chat tool.”
