Wekify Constitution

This Constitution is adopted by Wekify LLC as a public company commitment. It says how the studio is built, how language work is held, and where company authority stops.

Ayivugwe Kabemba Mukome founded Wekify LLC in Spokane, Washington, and currently holds founding stewardship of the company. That starting point is named so the structure can grow deliberately.

This is not a legal instrument for courts. It is the company’s word in public. Read it. Share it. Hold Wekify to it.

Simply put: Wekify is a founder-led studio. We build tools. Communities create the content.

Wekify LLC is a technology company named from Kuweka — to keep, to preserve, to hold safe. We build software where language work, cultural memory, and everyday digital systems meet.

The company is the legal and administrative home. It is not the voice of any language community, and it is not the owner of any community’s language.

• Our full name is Wekify LLC. We operate at wekify.com.
• We are a studio, not a venture product factory and not a substitute for a language community.
• Language work and non-language work both sit under the company, on separate ground.
• A language is an identity. A language with its own management is better than this company pretending to speak for it.

Simply put: one company, two domains. Language Work and Peacae run in parallel. Neither waits for the other to finish.

• Language Work is the home for language labs and public language products. Each language that needs its own institution gets a lab, not a page on this company site.
• Peacae is the home for products that are not language projects. Those products live on their own ground so language work is not mixed with studio tools.
• Peacae tools may help build or fill language platforms because the company owns those tools. That does not make Peacae products language assets.
• Company products, studio tools, and Peacae software remain company property unless a later public document says otherwise.

Simply put: a language lab is a named subsidiary of Wekify for one language. It has its own home, its own public face, and its own path toward community governance.

Wekify does not host every language on wekify.com. When we expand, we reuse the tools we can reuse, and we make copies when reuse is not possible. The plan is not one company site speaking for every language.

• A language lab is formed for a specific language and the community that speaks it.
• The lab sits inside Wekify LLC for legal and administrative purposes. That is housing, not ownership of the language.
• The lab should have its own website, name, and public documents when it can carry them.
• Wekify may provide engineering, hosting, and shared tooling. It does not become the representative of that community.
• Future labs inherit this model. They are not required to look like one another, and they are not absorbed into a single Wekify language brand.

Simply put: we can hold language assets in trust while a lab is young. We do not own them. The community that speaks the language is the beneficial owner.

• Language assets include data, software, platforms, tools, domains, corpora, dictionaries, recordings, and research made for that language.
• Those assets are not commercial inventory of Wekify LLC. They are not for sale, not for investors, and not collateral.
• Wekify has no community-governance authority over a language lab’s language decisions.
• The Declaration in this series states the trust. Each lab may also publish a language-specific declaration for its community.

Simply put: the company is founder-led today. That is the honest starting point. Language communities govern their languages. They do not need a seat on Wekify to own what is already theirs.

• Ayivugwe Kabemba Mukome currently holds founding stewardship of Wekify LLC and is bound by this Constitution and the Declaration.
• Company decisions about studio products, hiring, and Peacae remain company decisions.
• Decisions that permanently affect a language’s assets require the commitments in the Declaration, not a company override.
• No person governs a language community by holding the company. Company authority and community authority are different things.

These limits are the point of writing this down. They apply to every language lab, including labs that do not exist yet.

• Never sell a community’s language assets, transfer them to investors, or use them as commercial collateral.
• Never let Wekify LLC hold governance authority over a community foundation created for a language.
• Never accept funding that buys the right to dictate how a language is documented, standardized, or represented.
• Never collapse many languages into one Wekify page and call that representation.
• Never treat a language lab as a disposable brand inside a larger product catalog.

Simply put: the work cannot depend on one person forever. The company should be able to continue, and each language lab should be able to continue, if the founder cannot.

• Knowledge about company systems and language-lab infrastructure should be written down and shared over time.
• If founding stewardship of the company changes, the Declaration still binds whoever holds the company.
• A language lab’s assets stay in trust for that community through any change in company ownership or leadership.

Amendments are public. A quieter version of this document is not an amendment.

• Any amendment is published on wekify.com.
• An amendment may not weaken the Declaration’s core rule: language assets are held in trust for the community that speaks the language.
• Language-specific documents published by a lab are not replaced by this Constitution. They apply that lab’s community. This document applies the company.
