Our intention is to provide members with a supportive community and meaningful connections wherever they go. We carefully curate our members to ensure alignment of values and intention, creating a cohesive experience across our locations.

Since our Founding Members will be pivotal in defining the culture of Cohere, we are selecting the most inspired applicants at this stage to ensure that we’re establishing a strong foundation before opening the doors to the wider public. We will assess applications based on our shared values, potential contributions to the community and desire to participate in expanding our collective vision.

We recommend setting aside about 30-45 minutes to provide the degree of introspection that will be required for these questions.

To ensure our members are a good vibe fit for the community, our selection process is rigorous and extensive. This application is the first step of that process and will be followed by a video interview with someone from our team.

In most cases, if you're not selected to join the community at this time, it's not an indication that you are not a good fit for the community. We expect to reopen membership later this year and will review previously submitted applications again at that time.

Becoming a member doesn’t guarantee you’ll be able to book a stay at one of our locations, as our capacity for the next year is limited. Rest assured the team is working hard to bring additional locations online and we will do our best to expand our capacity quickly.

The occupancy fees at our properties will vary depending on the location and unit type you prefer. Detailed information regarding pricing will be published on the Community Hub as it becomes available.

During this beta phase, in most cases we will be operating each location for one month while we assess the viability of the property as a community. You are welcome to stay the entire month or as short as two weeks.

We will be operating four month-long residencies this year — between Costa Rica, Berlin, Bali, and Guatemala — and several more in the pipeline for next year. We will publish information on the Hub, website and socials as we secure more properties.

Each location will be unique in our ability to accommodate children or pets; information can be found on the Hub and website pages for each location. Should you require assistance from a registered service animal, send us an email and we will do our best to find a solution that suits your needs.

We have plenty of units to accommodate couples; so, if you are traveling with a companion, please let us know in your application and when you book your stay. For you both to stay together at one of our locations, you must both be members.

We strive to source our food from local organic producers whenever possible and will predominantly be serving plant-based, gluten-free meals. If you have specific dietary concerns that we should know about, please make sure to specify any restrictions or allergies you have when filling out your residency application.

While inclusion is a core value of ours, we are currently unable to accommodate anyone who is in a wheelchair or has specific mobility needs due to the remote nature of our locations. As we work to improve this, please feel free to reach out to our team if you’d like to discuss individual needs and we’ll do our best to evaluate if we can accommodate you.

Founding Members can earn $COHERE security tokens by contributing to the community in a variety of ways, both online and onsite at our properties. This can include becoming a community manager, teaching a yoga class, tending to the garden or holding a workshop about something you’re passionate about. In short, anything that provides value to the community is eligible to be compensated in equity.

Equity opportunities are published in the ‘Opportunities’ section of the Community Hub. Onsite opportunities are listed within the private page for that community, allowing residents of that community to view and apply to any available positions.

While we are working towards enabling this in the future, currently your membership and booking fees cannot be allocated toward equity in Cohere. In the meantime, you will be able to contribute skills, labor and expertise within our online and onsite communities to earn equity in Cohere.

Our SEC-compliant security token is a cryptographic representation of future shares of equity in Cohere Network Ltd. Essentially, this means that we've tokenized the shares of the company and stored them on the blockchain, which provides more flexibility in how and when we can issue equity while providing greater liquidity for shareholders. You can read more about the tokenomics in our litepaper.
