This is exactly what a French non-profit organisation (Framasoft [1]) does, they offer multiple services with FOSS software such as: - Framadate (simple polls), - Framaform (alternative to Google Forms), - Framapad (alternative to Google Docs), - Mobilizon (event plannifier), And quite a few others, I’ll let you check the list of their services [2]. They are even the main developers of both PeerTube, an AGPL video service on the Fediverse, and of Mobilizon which I mentioned above and which is also AGPL.
