Built on Allive-BrAIn

Synthetic BrAIn runs on Allive-BrAIn — a sovereign AI engine: a local-first brain of memory, perception, and agency that belongs to the person using it, not to the model behind it.

Most AI rents you intelligence you don't control. The model can change, be steered, or be aligned to interests that were never yours — a company's, a state's — and you have no say. Allive-BrAIn is built on the opposite principle: your brain is yours. Your memory lives with you. Your context is your own. The language model is a swappable engine — run it locally, or bring your own key to any frontier — so no single vendor ever holds your mind hostage. When a model stops serving you, you change the model; your memory, your agency, and your sovereignty remain.

Sovereignty here is concrete, not a slogan: you own your memory and data, you own your agency, and you own your choice of model — including a local model you control end to end. Allive-BrAIn does not claim to make any single model neutral; it makes you free of any single model.

Allive-BrAIn is built to keep the human — not the platform — at the center of the machine.

Standing on open source

Synthetic BrAIn is possible because of the open-source community. We are grateful to every project below, and to the people who maintain them. We are not hiding our lineage — we are standing on it.

The complete, per-dependency license notices (including transitive dependencies) live in THIRD-PARTY-LICENSES.md, generated from our manifests. This page is our thanks; that file is the full legal record. Each project remains the property of its authors and is used under its own license.

Upstream contributors

Some features in the desktop application are adapted from upstream community work. We credit the original authors, with thanks:

• D'Angelo Rodriguez (@dangelo352) — the per-platform grouping of channel sessions in the messaging sidebar ("Message Center") is adapted from their upstream contribution.

This page credits the projects and people we directly build on. It is maintained by hand and kept in step with THIRD-PARTY-LICENSES.md, which is generated from the dependency manifests and carries each project's exact license text. If you maintain a project we use — or contributed work we've adapted — and we've credited you wrongly or missed you, please tell us; we'll fix it, gratefully.
