Eco-engineering company reducing global compute energy cost by 90% or more.
We build developer tools where every operation — every build, every query, every deploy — reports its energy cost in joules. Not tokens. Not seats. Not abstract pricing units. Physics.
coding.openie.dev — Five energy-metered IDEs on one platform:
| IDE | Domain | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Lux | Web | Replaces the HTML/CSS/JS/TS ecosystem with a single language. Ships native + WASM. |
| Joule | Systems | Systems language with formal verification, energy budgets per function, and WebGPU compute. |
| Arc | General Purpose | Every programming language — Python, Rust, Go, C++, Java, COBOL, Fortran, and 50+ more. |
| Data | Data Science | Notebooks with energy receipts per cell. Python, R, Julia, SQL with ML pipeline metering. |
| DevOps | Infrastructure | Terraform, Kubernetes, Docker, Ansible, CI/CD — all as a queryable infrastructure graph. |
- Local-first: the app ships with a built-in AI model. Most tasks run on your machine — no cloud, no cost.
- Cloud when needed: frontier AI, collaboration, and deployment are available on demand.
- Pay for energy: you only pay when cloud infrastructure is used. Typical bill: $1–$10/month.
Every system fails at its boundaries. We address all five:
- Data — Protocols, formats, encoding, timing, API contracts
- Energy — Power delivery, voltage domains, thermal management, EMC
- Material — Mechanical fits, material compatibility, environmental specs
- Logistics — Assembly, routing, serviceability, manufacturing constraints
- Supply Chain — Sourcing, lifecycle, procurement, vendor constraints
The substrate behind the platform is also available as standalone tools:
| Project | What it is | Install |
|---|---|---|
| flow-g | Typed FunctionGraph IR for heterogeneous inference — CPU + Apple Silicon Metal + WGPU + AMX | cargo install flowg |
| lux-lang | Reactive, energy-aware language compiling to flowG | cargo install openie-lux |
| jmax | Math-native language replacing MATLAB / Julia / R / Mathematica | cargo install jmax |
| joule-lang | Self-hosted energy-aware language with compile-time budgets | cargo install joulec |
| jouledb | Energy-metered database — HDC primitives, joules per query | cargo install jouledb |
| pattern-lang | Pattern catalog + edge-first AI cascade runtime | see repo |
All distributed under BSL-1.1 (converts to Apache-2.0 four years post-release). Examples under Apache-2.0.
RCE is a small programming language defined by a written specification. A program describes the states it can be in, the events that can happen, and how each event changes the state. The same program gives the same result on every computer, always finishes, and is checked for mistakes before it runs. Start with The RCE Book.
| Repository | What it holds |
|---|---|
| rce | the specification (draft 0.5), its EBNF grammar, Lean proofs, and the reference checker and interpreter rce |
| rce-book | a step-by-step guide; every example is checked by rce |
| rce-examples | programs grouped by area, from money and text to networks, science and hardware |
| tree-sitter-rce | the grammar for editors that use tree-sitter |
| rce-ide | an editor for RCE built on the reference checker (downloads) |
The RCE repositories are licensed under MIT OR Apache-2.0.
