Local first
Core functions work with no cloud account and no connection.
Standard Continuity
Standard Continuity is a small firm in San Francisco. We build private systems for people who want their knowledge, records, computing, and power to keep working when the things those depend on stop.
The thesis
A current laptop can hold working language models, a regional map set, decades of technical manuals, and every record a family actually needs; the whole of it fits in a carry-on. What it can't do alone is stay useful.
Source quality, privacy, power, redundancy, recovery, and testing are the hard parts, and the discipline to keep at them for years is the firm.
Operating principles
Core functions work with no cloud account and no connection.
Data, keys, exports, and recovery material belong to the client.
Supported commercial hardware before anything proprietary.
We make no predictions and no guarantees; we build systems and test them under the conditions they're for.
The product line
Portable computing, knowledge, records, networking, and power.
Continuity built into a property: its equipment, utilities, manuals, and procedures.
Duplicate systems, secure synchronization, spare hardware, and geographic separation.
Independence
A client who leaves us keeps everything: sources open, archive recoverable, computer replaceable, and any competent technician able to take over.
