8DB / Built for an AI-native world

A new kind of database.
Omnimodal. Blazing fast.
Post-quantum secure.

Native data models. Native operations. Native mesh. An embeddable engine built for AI, with post-quantum encryption and granular permissions at its core.

Build richer applications. Get answers faster. Keep your data yours.

Power, with the numbers to prove it.

Native capability / Beyond storing data

Data that does more.

Recognize what’s missing. Preserve meaningful alternatives. Follow changing evidence. Give your application useful operations it can build on.

01 / Time series

A missing reading should tell you what to do next.

A blank value hides the difference between missing evidence, late data and a sensor that was never deployed. 8DB’s native gap operations preserve that distinction, so your application can take the right next step.

Beyond the observed tail

Expect no reading Keep absence meaningful
02 / BioTwin / Lineage

When the evidence changes, know which answers to revisit.

An answer can keep the same number while its justification changes. Find the dependent work that needs review.

Trace changed evidence →
03 / BioTwin / Order lattices

Keep the strongest alternatives visible.

A candidate may offer more benefit at more cost. Preserve the alternatives instead of hiding that choice inside one score.

The 8DB foundation

More power in the engine.
Less to build around it.

Bring rich data models, useful operations, fast execution and owner control into one reusable foundation. Build the application that makes you different. Inherit more of the machinery underneath it.

Category 5 cryptography. CNSA 2.0 algorithm choices. ML-KEM-1024 key establishment and ML-DSA-87 signatures, with owner-directed governance. Explore the security profile ↗

Build on these primitives inside your own application, or explore how our products use them.

The next frontier / Useful information. Lasting control.

Keep control as your data
becomes intelligence.

A document becomes a relationship. Context becomes an answer. We’re building a shared protection foundation so the rules governing information can travel with the knowledge it creates.

The 8Braid portfolio

Different work.
A common foundation.

Explore the platform through the work it makes possible.

Flagship / BraidEra

Computational drug discovery, from questions to testable candidates.

Built on 8DB, BraidEra’s BioTwin connects biological questions, candidate designs, simulations and supporting evidence in a persistent research program.

That living scientific memory lets researchers compare alternatives, retain rejected options and carry the reasoning behind a decision into the next experiment.

Explore computational candidates and the experiments needed to test them.

SovClear

Ownership and sanctions-review workflows that connect complex relationships to dated records, evidence gaps and the next review step.

Give reviewers a traceable basis for follow-up and decisions.

Sector exploration

Military, sovereign and edge applications.

Trusted information, intermittent connectivity and controlled sharing create demanding workloads. We’re exploring protected records, device-local search and coordinated work under constrained network conditions.

Start with the devices, connectivity and information-sharing rules your deployment needs.

One defined demonstration.

Navier-StokesPublic Lean companion

Inside one step of OpenAI’s construction.

We reproduced the submitted formal checks and proved a conditional covariance bound in Lean. A separate native 8DB experiment tested how withdrawing evidence changes recorded support.

Replay the conditional lemma in the public companion. The article explains the separate database experiment and its implications for AI.

  1. Map the integration.Where does the data come from, and where would 8DB run?
  2. Define what must hold.Agree the access, provenance and update checks that matter.
  3. Evaluate the difference.Compare against your current approach and propose a pilot plan.

For investors

One core platform.
Several ways to create value.

Shared database engineering creates a foundation for distinct applications. BraidEra, SovClear and our broader portfolio show the opportunity to reuse that work across industries. As a pre-customer company, our next milestone is to turn this technical progress into measurable value through focused customer evaluations.
