## What is Roost Directory?

Roost is the private community directory you actually control.
  
  Most directories treat your contact info like a spreadsheet anyone can export. Roost doesn't. Your privacy is enforced at the database,
  not just hidden in the interface, and there's no "export everything" button for boards, admins, or us. You decide what you share, and you
  can change it any time.
  
  For the communities that run on trust:
  • PTOs and PTAs
  • HOAs and neighborhood associations
  • Foundations and nonprofits
  • Sports leagues, clubs, and alumni groups
  
  Built for how people actually connect:
  • Find the members you're looking for in a couple of taps
  • Three sharing choices (Visible, Private, or Opt out), and you pick how widely
  • Works for every kind of household: two homes, blended families, co-guardians
  
  The tools your community runs on:
  • Circles: private contact groups only you can see, for the people you coordinate with
  • Trusted Help: sitters, tutors, coaches, and helpers vouched for by your own community, never by us
  • Clubs: the activity groups your organization actually runs
  • Broadcasts: quick announcements from your leaders, without anyone's email leaking
  • Sponsors: local businesses your organization partners with 
  
  One account that follows you across every group you belong to, year after year.
  
  Roost is licensed by your organization, so it's free to you as a member. No ads. No tracking. No selling your data. Ever.
