About Us

Our mission is to transform the way humans and machines understand the world. In real-time. Enhancing human ingenuity, innovation, and safety in a sustainable manner.

We are doing this by creating a real-time index of reality, enabling billions of machines and trillions of sensors to land, index, share and consume each other’s data about the world as they move through it.

This is possible because we have created a unique new form of data processing. One that can process the volume, velocity, and breadth of data from millions of dynamic machines and sensors in its full fidelity. On as little as a single server. Processing that can collaborate and live anywhere. This processing and our approach are unrelated to anything else in existence today.

Using the General System platform, your car will be able share what it sees with other cars. Your AR glasses will be able to query the world around them and access the information from millions of others. Your drone delivery will be completed quicker and safer. Your city will keep you safe. Our industries and supply chains will be more efficient. Our climate will be monitored.

Combined, the data from all of this will enable humanity to query reality and unlock new societal and economic outcomes. All while ensuring data dignity, privacy and control.
