Fifty agents argue on behalf of species, biomes, and climate systems—and win two tracks at PL Genesis.
Regen Atlas took first place in two tracks at PL_Genesis. Inside the interspecies parliament we built—where species, biomes, climate systems, and economic models argue over bioregional proposals.

When swarms meet geography. The agent payments stack treats compute as locationless — and the mispricing is the largest unclaimed opportunity in technology today.

Foundational essay on property rights, governance, and value capture in decentralized systems.
[ Read → ]Most of this work falls in a gap: teams building things institutions cannot yet evaluate, and institutions trying to evaluate things that barely exist yet. We work in that gap—we publish the research, then build the thing that proves it.
Research drops, build logs, and the occasional parliament of the nonhuman.
