We build the cognitive stack
for the next generation of software
B12 Labs is the research lab behind BOSS — an AI-native operating system for creators, SMBs, and enterprises.
35 studios, 77 engines, a cognitive memory layer, four VMs of owned compute.
Three products, one thesis
Software that remembers, reasons, and adapts — not just completes.
The AI-native operating system. 35 studios: Voice, Movie, Scribe, Agents, Personas, Capture, Meet, and more.
Enterprise-tier BOSS with BYOK encryption, Cintrico-managed keys, centralized spend, SOC 2, HIPAA BAA.
Portable, graph-compressed, single-file memory for AI agents. 97% smaller than vector DBs. Sub-ms recall. MIT.
The cognitive layer software has been missing since the 1970s
We build the memory, reasoning, and orchestration layer that turns LLM calls into durable software. Engram + Lucid + Council.
Four-VM cluster, 256 GB RAM, 4 TB disk. Whisper, NeuTTS, VibeVoice, VoxCPM, Piper, Gemma 4, Qwen 3, MiniCPM — all local.
Engram is MIT. Lucid framework is public. We publish what we learn so others can build on it — and benefit from the contributions that come back.
We're hiring researchers, engineers, and designers.
Help us build the cognitive layer that software has been missing since the 1970s. Remote-first, ship weekly, equity that matters.
