Multi-tenant by design: orgs and hosts
One login should be enough to run everything you publish — a portfolio, three client sites, and a storefront — without those properties ever bleeding into each other. That's the tension multi-tenancy resolves, and in Aglyn it isn't a feature we bolted on. It's the shape of the platform.
Multi-tenancy isn't a feature we bolted on — it's the shape of the platform.
Orgs own everything
An organization is the unit of ownership: members, roles, billing, and shared assets live at the org level. Your team joins once, gets a role, and sees exactly the sites that role allows. Agencies run each client in its own org or group sites under one — both work.
Hosts are the unit of isolation
Each site — we call the runtime a host — has its own screens, content collections, media library, forms, and domain. Nothing leaks across hosts by default: a collaborator scoped to one site can't wander into another, and one site's data model never collides with its neighbor's.
Shared where it helps
Isolation without sharing would mean duplicating everything, so the org layer carries what should be common: org-level media shared with chosen sites, members who span projects, one bill for all of it.
Why it's an architecture, not a setting
Because tenancy is enforced in the data model and security rules — not in UI filters — the guarantees hold everywhere: in the console, in the editor, on the published sites, and through the API. That's what "multi-tenant by design" means: the walls were poured with the foundation.

Zach Gover is the founder and CEO of Aglyn. He spent eighteen years on both sides of the marketing–engineering handoff — building sites as a contractor, then running technical marketing at Caringo through its acquisition by DataCore and at DuploCloud from seed through Series B. The pattern never changed: the marketing site is a company’s most-visited product surface and the one the team can least afford to touch. Aglyn is his answer to that. He writes from Austin, and this site is built in the product it describes.
