Mission

To unlock the creative and analytical potential of humans who use computers. Read our manifesto.

We are building a new software industry:

Programming Langauge/Runtime (Caneka)
UX Paradigm (OverEasy)
Employment Framework (Seriously Human).

Our Approach Podcast

Firecrow Silvernight, Founder, January 2025

In this 7min podcast, our founder shares some advantages of the Caneka runtime, and our approach to building interactive systems.

Technology

Compare Basic is developing a langauge that is both low-level and high-level at the same time.

The technology approach is to provide use-case support for most modern interactive applications, while providing access to low-level conventions at the same time, using a mimimalist approach that is portable and suitable as an auditor or supervisor system.

Our first target for salable application(s) is the cross-over between email and web protocols (SMTP/HTTP).

Our system components individually branded

Seriously Human

The guiding intention of this framework is to have:"a few thousand employees, in a few thousand years."

The intention behind this phrase is to create the foundation for a large organization without working so hard that we burn out. It also favours knowledge sharing that can outlive the founder(s) and bring long-term meaning and purpose to all employees and customers. read more.

Roadmap

Prototype Phase

January 2024-January 2025 (Complete)

This has spanned business conceptual development and language tools and runtime development. BasicTypes and Caneka are in their VIth and final iteration, with CycleServe and Templang on their IIIrd of V expected generations before production. The Roebling Parser and Span Store have been the unifying features which round out our Cycle Oriented Programming toolset. Both of these components emerged between in March and June of 2024, along with Templang and the rest of the Caneka ecosystem.

See the our system status on the Caneka unit-test page for updates and progress.

Initial Release Development

January 2025 to mid 2025

A series of small programs are being built to load test the components of our first product. Our network server (CycleServe) which is part of Caneka, is being altered to serve as a build server and software development shell, replacing BASH in our daily development. This is an exciting way to battle test the system in advance of having enough users to load test a webserver.

The following example programs/sites are planned to vet the Email2Site product before a full customer offering.

First Product: Email2Site

mid 2025 to 2028

Email2Site utalizes the easiest market that has been underserved for generating revenue to sustain the company: the cross-over of email and web technologies.

Code Editor: Caneka Tools

expected in 2025

The caneka langauge editor will start as an environment for writing and visualizing Caneka code, that builds into visualizing and editing all common languages. This endeavor is designed to be the monitization strategy for the open source language, as well as build langauge analysis as the driver of our next product that is focused on runtime analysis.

Auditing Tools: Fool Family of Products

expected in 2028

This family of product is design to audit and visualize Large-Langauge-Models and other Algorithmic based products. For the purpose of validating the safety, accuracy, and source of insights provided by these systems. This Builds on the runtime analysis expertise from the Caneka editor, which will span all popular languages by this time. The monetization strategy is expected to be a partnership with insurance companies in the business space for a reduced premium in exchange for greater certainty of safety.
