Phase 1
Phase 1 · Unified Data OS
Evidence before empathy. Clean, governed, consented context.
About Open People
We build technology that remembers its conscience.
Alignment is not a single product. It is a living practice that spans data, intent, reflection, and cooperative governance.
Evolution
From foundation to continuum
A single narrative carried by three operating systems. Each year we add color, governance, and shared agency.
Phase 2
Phase 2 · Ethical Data OS
Conscience in the loop. Alignment scorecards, reflection rituals.
Phase 3
Phase 3 · Neural Web OS
Collective ethics. A continuum that keeps humanity sovereign.
Our philosophy
Creed in practice
Structure Before power
We encode provenance, consent, and lineage before applying automation. Evidence first, empathy next.
Humanity Before machine
People choose the boundaries. Models learn to respect tone, well-being, and restorative feedback loops.
Alignment Before acceleration
We measure alignment across data, conscience, and collective governance. If the score dips, pace slows.
