HYVE Ether OS — iridescent star mark over the HYVE ETHER OS wordmark

The operating system built around the agent, not the app.

The atmosphere for private intelligence

Patent pending: 10 U.S. patent applications filed (9 provisional, 1 nonprovisional). HYVE's design uses ML-KEM-768 post-quantum key exchange; it is not yet in the shipped build. Stop renting your intelligence from the cloud.

Post-Quantum Encryption by Design

Designed for the day quantum computers can break today's public-key encryption.

HYVE's design uses ML-KEM-768 post-quantum key exchange; it is not yet in the shipped build. The designed substrate seals data in fixed 512-byte encrypted cells (ChaCha20-Poly1305 AEAD, Ed25519 signatures, blind routing tokens); today the cell format is used only by HYVE's device-to-device messaging, which is in development.

Sovereign Data Protocol (.hyvedata)

Your data, your keys, your signature.

Per-chunk Brotli + AES-256-GCM encryption with an Ed25519-signed root hash you can verify offline, plus SQLite-indexed metadata; one vault unlock decrypts every archive. (NOT yet in the shipped build: Reed-Solomon GF(256) parity shards + Particle-Swarm-Optimized layout for partial-corruption survival — the designed next layer.)

FLAGSHIP OS · CLOSED BETA · PUBLIC LAUNCH TBA

HYVE ETHER OS

Agent-native. Sovereign. No subscription. Built on Debian Linux as the OS where AI agents are first-class citizens — not browser tabs. Runs Windows apps (via Wine), containers, Flatpak apps, and retro game ROMs. Connect cloud LLMs you already pay for with your own API keys.

PROGRESS · BUILT IN PUBLIC

Where HYVE Ether OS stands today

We build in the open. The OS is real, running, and in closed beta — here's a snapshot of where it stands while we harden toward public launch.

Closed beta is live

A full agent-native OS boots and runs on real hardware — installed on its own drive, not inside another OS.

Own your intelligence

Your models run on your own hardware, under your own keys — never rented. The OS registers your license once and sends no telemetry.

A mobile companion (coming soon)

Your assistant on your phone, paired directly to your own machine — sovereign, not a cloud account.

Signed packages, verified offline

An Ed25519-signed package depot that verifies add-ons on your machine. Installed systems don't update automatically yet; new releases are a fresh download.

INSIDE THE OS · BUILT AND IN DEVELOPMENT

Not an app. Not an SDK. A whole operating system.

53+ capabilities across 9 domains, built or in development — an AI agent, models you own and run yourself, creative studios, a defense suite, a civic suite, and the sovereignty layer underneath it all.

ZERO SUBSCRIPTIONS · NO TELEMETRY

Agent & Intelligence

Deterministic decision orchestration, and models you own and run on your own hardware.

  • HYVE Omega — Decision Orchestrator

    The deterministic gate at the heart of every agent: the same input always yields the same decision, fully replayable — no hidden randomness in the loop.

  • HYVE LLM Creator

    Coming soon.

  • Observatory

    A live, three-dimensional interpretability surface — watch agent decisions, memory writes, and bus traffic, replayable.

  • Quantum Cognition Routing

    A design in a pending patent claim, not a shipped capability: routing work across quantum, classical, and local compute.

  • Leaper Universal Runtime

    Run Windows apps (via Wine), containers, Flatpak apps and retro game ROMs alongside native Linux programs.

  • Leaper Differential Sandbox

    Designed, not yet in the shipped build: each binary's sandbox tier would be chosen from where it came from — signed, AI-generated, user-uploaded, or unknown.

Creative Studios

Seven agent-native creation engines — image, audio, film, motion, ambient sensing (in development), API orchestration, and prompts — every render on-device, no per-generation fee.

  • HYVE Spark

    Multi-model, multi-style image generation, fully agent-scriptable.

  • HYVE Pulse

    An audio studio that runs on your machine. Music generation is not available yet: its model is not included in the OS image.

  • HYVE Cinema · Anima engine

    Agentic video generation — script, storyboard, render, and lip-sync a film on your own machine.

  • HYVE Kinesis

    Markerless motion capture from a single webcam — no suit, no markers.

  • HYVE Sense · Aura engine

    In development: presence sensing from Wi-Fi signals, using add-on sensor boards.

  • Studios Connect

    1,450+ public APIs across 50+ categories, with recipe scheduling, behind one sovereignty-scored gateway.

  • HYVE Prompts

    A versioned master prompt library — prompts treated as first-class, ownable artifacts.

Defense & Security

Static analysis, decoy-traffic and Tor defenses, and an encrypted cell design built to resist traffic analysis.

  • Uniform-Cell Transport

    For device-to-device messaging, which is in development: fixed-size cells erase the size-based metadata that ordinary encryption leaks.

  • Cell-Sharded Transport

    For device-to-device messaging, which is in development: messages split via Shamir K-of-N over GF(256), so K cells reconstruct and K-1 reveal nothing.

  • Blind Routing Tokens

    For device-to-device messaging, which is in development: HKDF-derived routing lets relays move cells without linking them to a conversation.

  • Message-Granular Forward Secrecy

    For device-to-device messaging, which is in development: the HYVE ratchet rotates keys, designed so a compromise does not unlock past traffic.

  • Augur Static Analysis

    Eleven static-analysis detectors across five languages. Auditing its own source on every commit is a design in a pending patent claim.

  • Tarpit · Tor · Sentinel Triad

    Decoy traffic, a pluggable-transport Tor controller, and cross-platform kill in one defensive layer.

  • PIN, Password and Gesture Unlock

    PIN, password and gesture unlock.

  • Timing-Leak-Free Unlock

    Constant-time credential verification with parallel Argon2id defeats side-channel timing attacks.

Private Communications

Device-to-device encrypted messaging is in development (the relay service is not public yet), alongside direct device pairing, duress detection, and mesh-distributed identity.

  • Serverless Cross-Device Pairing

    Designed for device-to-device messaging, which is in development: scan a QR token and two devices establish a ratcheted channel directly, with no account and no broker.

  • Mesh Persona with Duress Auto-Shred

    Your persona is threshold-sharded across the mesh; a duress signal silently shreds it.

  • Typing-Rhythm Duress Detection

    A departure from your keystroke baseline can raise a silent duress signal — no button to press.

  • Tide Cognition

    Inter-keystroke timing alone classifies your working state — no content is captured, only rhythm.

  • HYVE LocalSend

    Peer-to-peer LAN file transfer with mDNS discovery and TLS pinning — no relay, up to 8 GiB per file.

Civic & Government Services

A first-class civic suite — fifteen surfaces for tax, veterans, identity, records, compliance, emergency, health, legal, and students — sovereign by default.

  • Civic Suite — 15 Surfaces

    Tax, Veteran, Identity, Records, Civil Servant, Compliance, Community, Emergency, Health, Legal, Discover, Translate, Small Biz, Student, and the Civic hub.

  • Civic Credential Verification Gate

    A constant-evaluation credential check before any civic surface accepts your documents.

  • Federal Compliance Phased Installer

    Planned: operator-paced hardening — banner, audit, sysctl, MAC, strict, all — with every step reversible. Not in the shipped build yet.

  • Civic Redaction Filter

    Civic output is filtered through a redaction pass before it ever reaches the screen.

  • Legal-Authority Drift Detection

    Continuous monitoring of regulation, jurisdiction, and court changes — alerts when your compliance drifts.

Sovereignty & Data Ownership

Local-first by architecture: your keys, your signature — and a vendor that structurally cannot reach your data.

  • Sovereign OS Architecture

    A two-tier key hierarchy, multi-organ topology, and a deterministic runtime.

  • .hyvedata Archive Protocol

    Per-chunk Brotli + AES-256-GCM and an Ed25519-signed root hash you can verify.

  • HYVE Identity

    On-device identity: an X25519 keypair and HKDF-scoped tokens.

  • Operator-Controlled Relay

    The signaling relay URL is operator-configurable; the relay service is not public yet.

  • Time-Locked Decryption

    Seal evidence under a verifiable-delay-function gate that mathematically resists early opening.

  • Staged OS Hardening

    Planned: a phased, operator-paced hardening installer designed to stay auditable and reversible at every step. Not in the shipped build yet.

Developer & Integration

Call HYVE's organs from the tools you already use — MCP bridge, per-IDE skills, a plugin spec, and 1,450+ scored API integrations.

  • HYVE MCP Bridge

    A standalone binary that exposes Omega, Narrator, Augur, Trust, and Leaper as native MCP tools.

  • Harness Skills

    Per-IDE skill manifests for Claude Code, Cursor, and Continue — call HYVE organs from your editor.

  • Plugin Spec

    Six plugin types — studios, organs, themes, recipes, surfaces, agents — manifest-installed on local ports.

  • Sovereignty-Scored Connect

    1,450+ APIs scored by data exfiltration, jurisdiction, and free-tier availability before you wire them in.

  • Trust Federation

    Cross-tenant agent reputation: Omega can ask the network whether an agent has earned trust before delegating.

  • Heterogeneous-Hardware Execution

    Generative requests adapt to the hardware they land on — capability caps applied at the shim layer.

Compliance & Governance

Honest and mapped — SOC 2 controls mapped with an audit planned, HIPAA and GDPR alignment, and federal control mappings, with no badge we have not earned.

  • SOC 2 Type II — In Preparation

    Controls mapped today to the AICPA Trust Services Criteria; an independent audit is planned, not yet certified.

  • HIPAA Alignment

    Health data you process with the OS stays on your machine. BAA requests are reviewed case by case; no standard agreement is published yet.

  • GDPR & CCPA Alignment

    Data minimization by default. DPA requests are reviewed case by case; no standard agreement is published yet.

  • FedRAMP / CMMC / NIST Mappings

    Read-only control mappings, with a phased federal-hardening installer planned — alignment, with no authorization claimed.

  • Classification-Aware Briefing

    One source briefing, rendered for operator, command, allied, and public tiers with automatic per-tier redaction.

  • Decoupled Accreditation Signing

    Threshold signing separates the binary from the policy, so either can be re-accredited independently.

System & Build

The OS-level engineering that makes the rest possible — dual-posture builds, a theming-native pipeline, and planned autonomous driver support.

  • Dual-Posture Build Pipeline

    One source is designed to produce a development build and a production build with LUKS2 + Secure Boot. The production build is not released yet; today's image installs with Secure Boot turned off.

  • Themed Visual Identity

    A build-time HSV-transform pipeline generates 14+ complete themed icon sets from one canonical source.

  • Autonomous Driver Discovery

    Planned: a persistent service that subscribes to udev, matches your hardware, and installs drivers non-interactively. Not in the shipped build yet.

  • Preinstalled Productivity Suite

    Browser, mail, and calendar preinstalled and configured — productive on first boot.

Some entries are designs described in pending patent applications and are not yet in the shipped build. Creative studios are advertised on sovereignty and zero per-use cost, not on output-quality comparisons. Measured benchmark figures live, in full, on the progress page.
