Substrait LLC

Pioneering Open Personal Computing

Substrait LLC envisions a future where individuals have unprecedented control and ownership over their digital lives. We are building a universal mobile runtime that fosters interoperable, user-centric application development.

Our Mission

Our mission is to empower users to create, share, and interact with applications in a truly open and personalized computing environment.

Key Principles

• Openness: We believe in permissionless interoperability, where data and services flow freely between platforms. Anyone can publish, share, and create interactive content, driving user-led innovation.
• Personalization: We empower users to set their own direction in the digital realm, providing ubiquitous access and reducing friction to enable seamless exploration and creation.
• User-Centric Computing: We are transforming phones and cloud accounts into a user-centric application platform, enabling personalized and AI-powered app experiences.

Our Approach

• Universal Mobile Runtime: We are developing a runtime environment that abstracts away the complexities of different hardware and operating systems, fostering interoperability and enabling applications to run seamlessly across various devices.
• User Empowerment: Our platform prioritizes user control and ownership of data, promoting transparency and enabling individuals to shape their digital experiences.
• Community-Driven: We are building a strong community of users and developers who share our vision and contribute to the growth and evolution of the platform.

Business Model

• Sustainable Growth: We separate income generation from product development, funding our work through an income investment arm similar to university endowment funds. This model allows us to focus on long-term innovation and prioritize user needs over short-term revenue goals.
• Distributed Costs: We keep operational costs low by leveraging users' existing cloud resources, aligning with our principles of openness and user empowerment.

Current Focus

Large-Scale Mobile Game: We are developing a large-scale mobile game to drive initial adoption and validate our platform. The game will serve as a testing ground for our security, privacy protocols, and tooling, while also fostering community building and engagement.

Future Outlook

Substrait is poised to play a pivotal role in shaping the future of personal computing. By prioritizing openness, personalization, and user empowerment, we aim to create a more accessible, inclusive, and innovative digital world.
