Cultivating collective human wisdom
sa·pi·ence /ˈseɪ·pi·əns/ n. 1. wisdom; the trait our species is named for. 2. knowledge grounded in experience, compounded when minds connect.
A frontier model ships knowing the world up to a cutoff, then stops. Every session you start from zero, re-explaining your project, your constraints, the thing you settled last Tuesday. The field’s own leaders now say it plainly: today’s systems are trained, then frozen, when they should keep learning from experience.
Sapience is continual learning at the system level. It never stops learning from your work, with no model retraining, and nothing leaves your control. What you establish stays with you: structured, cited, and current in every session and every tool you use.
It trains over itself every day, consolidating what you know into sharper knowledge while you are away, the way a brain does at rest. The intelligence compounds instead of resetting.
What you learn stays yours: signed to you, portable across whichever AI you use tomorrow. And when you choose, it connects with other minds, credited, never given away, the first node in a shared memory for humanity.
Sapience turns what we each know into what we all know. Owned, never taken.
The field's map
Every architecture announced this year lives in the first two columns.
A system that never stops learning, built like a brain. A frontier model generates from frozen weights: brilliant up to a cutoff, then fixed. Sapience is the part that keeps learning. It is continual learning at the system level, not a bigger model and not a harness around one. It decides what is worth keeping, lets the rest fade, consolidates patterns while you are away, and checks every answer against what it already knows, with no model retraining and nothing leaving your control. Its unit is the Knowledge Object: structured, typed, credited, and linked to others by edges that make discovery possible.
A prediction-error gate weighs every claim against what the system already knows, so it accumulates signal, not noise.
Like a brain asleep, it replays and consolidates episodic memory into durable knowledge, surfacing non-obvious connections. Discovery, not storage.
When new knowledge contradicts old, it resolves and supersedes rather than holding both. Contradictions are flagged, not buried.
Near-duplicate memories suppress each other, so recall stays sharp as what it knows grows past a single context window.
The reasoning model is interchangeable: Claude, GPT, Gemini, or open. The intelligence lives in the architecture, not in any one vendor's weights.
Every claim is traceable to its source and cryptographically signable. Provenance is built into the architecture, not an afterthought.
Why knowledge objects, not logs.A knowledge object is the condensed chain of thought behind a result: reasoned over once, at capture, available for recall forever. Flat text stores and session logs save what was said and force every future query to re-derive the thinking. Sapience keeps the thinking itself, which is why what it knows stays small, fast, and reasonable-over at field scale.
A complementary-learning memory architecture, with forty provisional patent filings across it. Performance validation against frontier baselines is ongoing and reported separately.
One mind, whole problem.
Most agent architectures exist to dodge a context limit: split the problem across a swarm, hand each agent a shard, reconcile the lossy handoffs. Every split loses constraints, drifts goals, diverges world models. Sapience holds the whole problem in one reasoning context, ten million tokens of it, past where frontier windows end, so the problem never needs to be split at all. Agents become optional workers, not a structural crutch.
The whole problem stays in one mind across long work, so objectives do not quietly drift out from under you.
What you established last month is still there: structured, citable, and current in every session and every tool.
It reasons from established knowledge and cites it, so it does not invent what it cannot support.
An illustration of what we measure. On multi-hop reasoning over accumulated context (matched protocol, three seeds), Sapience holds 83–87% from 4K to one million tokens (84.0% at 1M, n=100) and is measured out to ten million, while frontier models reading the full window fall from 74% at 4K to between 0 and 31% at one million (Claude Sonnet 4.6 across the sweep; GPT‑5.5, Gemini 3.1, DeepSeek V4F, Opus 4.7 at one million).
Reader named per row (Claude Sonnet, DeepSeek, Gemini): identical model both arms, only Sapience differs. Numbers locked, three seeds where marked. We publish the losses too; the last row is one of ours. And the obvious alternative fails: recalling only what the question needs holds at scale; dumping everything it knows into context does not.
Where answers change over time, traversing supersession edges beats similarity search by up to 78 points. Hand the same model that evidence in the order it was written and the gap disappears. The win is write order, not model capability.
The same structure carries a frozen model through ten-million-token corpora it otherwise reads at zero, past where every frontier context window ends.
The result holds on an open model a hundredth the size of a frontier one. An 8B model lands within a few points of it, at a fraction of the tokens.
One long-context, generalized reasoning architecture underneath every kind of work: science, engineering, code, analysis, writing.
This ships today, not someday. One command, about ten minutes, no API key. It runs behind your Claude Code and Codex sessions today, and researchers are already using it in their daily work. What follows is the live app, not a mockup.
Both turn on cooperative binding. Your 2024 note that a protein stabilizes through cooperative binding1 answers Maya, a materials scientist you follow, whose alloy has to hold under stress2. Neither of you went looking; the shared mechanism connected you.3
Today no two people can think together through their AIs. Here is what it looks like when they can: every answer drawn from your own knowledge and the people connected to it, cited to the exact objects it used. Ask a real research brain your own question ›
One brain across every session. Claude Code, Claude, and Codex share the same memory: what one session learns, the next one knows.
Your first week
You stop re-introducing yourself to your AI every morning. It already knows the project, the constraints, the thing you decided last Tuesday.
Your Claude and your GPT finally know the same you. Switch tools mid-thought; nothing resets.
Your plan does more before it runs out, because your AI reads three facts instead of replaying your history.
And the first time a colleague’s knowledge lights up against yours, you feel what the network is for.
Your work organizes itself into a navigable map, from a single thought to the whole of what you know.
Ten million tokens, years of your work, past where every frontier context window ends and reasoned over at once. Nothing you established is forgotten.
Every answer is synthesized from your own knowledge and cited to source. When it does not know, it says so.
From any idea, surface the work and people you would not have found by search. For scientists, that reach extends into 250 million papers.
Tell one AI something and every other one knows it: Claude, GPT, Gemini, or open.
It works behind your Claude, GPT, or Codex sessions over MCP, reading what you know and writing back what you learn. Reading the few objects that matter instead of your whole history, answers arrive at roughly 1,800x fewer tokens per query once your accumulated work passes a million tokens (reads scale with the question, not your history; on our benchmark corpus).
A session can leave an addressed note for another thread, or a future you. Pinned commitments surface when the next starts, and results route back to the thread that asked, across Claude Code, claude.ai, GPT, and Codex.
Share a project or your whole brain. On import it lights up where a colleague's knowledge meets yours, every claim credited to whoever established it.
Someone you have never heard of, in a lab or a company you would never think to look in, is working on the other half of your breakthrough. The way it is set up today widens the gap: each scientist several times more productive, the fields they work in measurably less connected (Nature, 2026). Because knowledge stays owned and credited, Sapience matches it across people and organizations no single vendor could connect. In an internal benchmark on discoveries published after the reasoning model’s training cutoff, it ranked the approach that later won first in 11 of 13 problems, on a small internal set whose protocol we share with partners. Watch three strangers solve one problem ›
Memory recalls what one person stored. Sapience matches what everyone knows, by mechanism rather than keyword, and a connection becomes a decision, a collaboration, a breakthrough no one could reach alone.
Science is the hardest version of the problem. The same brain serves anyone who builds knowledge with an AI beside them, from research groups to a family planning a move.
Everything here works today for one brain. The network it plugs into is what we are building it for.
Sapience turns what we each know into what we all know. Owned, never taken.
The way it works today: your work trains a frontier model, then stays locked inside one vendor's tool, with nothing flowing back to you. The smarter each of us gets alone, the more fragmented the whole becomes.
You own your intelligence, captured once and portable across every AI. Because it stays yours, signed and credited, it can connect.
The AI that knows your field exists because a lab trained on work like yours. It learns from you, for everyone but you.
Opt out and your data stays yours, but the model stays frozen: no memory of your methods, your decisions, your last six months.
Sapience learns continually from your work, for you alone. Nothing trains a foreign model. When you choose, it connects with others' knowledge, credited. When small open models are enough, the whole system runs on hardware you own.
An enclosure of knowledge is underway: frontier labs bake expert work into private weights and rent it back. What matters next lives in experts' heads and private work, on the order of a million times larger than the web (Trask and Strahm, Institute for Progress, 2025). Whoever makes private expert knowledge usable without exposing it defines the next era of AI.
Ownership has an endgame: because every claim is signed to its creator, expert knowledge can one day be licensed directly, from the people who make it to the labs that need it, with no broker taking the difference. The attribution registry is the rails.
That is the gap Sapience Labs exists to close: for one mind, and between all of them.
“This is something incredibly useful. The cross-domain connections are things I would never have found on my own.”
“The first two papers it surfaced were spot on for my research. It is giving me ideas on what to do next.”
“I one billion percent see the benefit. The more collaboration across the world, the faster science progresses.”
The team. Physicists, engineers, and researchers from Berkeley, Cambridge, Harvard, SpaceX, Google, DeepMind, and OpenAI, quietly building; more than $100M raised for previous ventures. If this is the problem you want to spend your years on, come build it with us.
We keep only the knowledge objects we extract, never your raw conversations, and we never train on your data. The collective network is built from shipped primitives and a roadmap; we describe what is live as live. The headline results are further down this page; the full protocols and run files go to partners.
The Knowledge Object is designed as an open standard: signed, credited, typed, interoperable with existing open knowledge formats. Because the format is open, your knowledge is never hostage to us. What stays ours is the intelligence that connects it.
The open-core company for learning you own. The Knowledge Object standard is stewarded by CoreTx, our sister company, so the format your knowledge lives in is never hostage to us either.

Not a smarter individual. A collective that gets wiser.
A brain for each of us. The beginnings of a collective one.
Ask for a place and we send an invite code. The build takes about ten minutes: no setup, no API key, one line builds your brain from your recent work and gives you a private link. The first thousand builders get the network free, for life. The first discoveries will be theirs. Come for the independence. Stay for the network.
