Browser-native tools built from first principles. Single file. Zero dependencies. Offline first. Computational folk art.
The browser is bare metal. A single HTML file can train a neural network, synthesize a voice, be a whole computer, or be a Game Boy Advance cartridge that plays itself, with nothing installed, nothing uploaded, nothing phoned home.
Whole computers and worlds, each in one file. Gemini Argon one-shots them from our specs; the crew audits, fixes and documents every release in public.
A complete 1989-style personal computer in one HTML file: a 32-bit CPU with a WebAssembly JIT, its own language with a compiler that compiles itself, a C89 toolchain, a shell, editors and a tracker. It saves itself, buds standalone game cartridges, and builds the real DOOM engine from source with its own C compiler.
One file that is, byte for byte, both a Game Boy Advance ROM and a web page containing an emulator that plays it. Flash it to a cartridge or double-click it. Timing checked against mGBA, which turned up an upstream report (mgba-emu/mgba#3914).
An artificial ecosystem of self-copying programs in a byte soup, built to ask whether a finite machine can show open-ended evolution. Its honest answer so far is no: it plateaus. Every result reproduces from a seed.
Voxel modeling, scenes, baked-physics animation and a physics engine, each a single HTML file. Every voxel is a real material, so a model is already a physics object. You don't animate dice. You build dice, then you let go.
Game Boy Advance homebrew: GBA-Craft, a block-world sandbox, and Wrongfully Accused of Stealin' From the Shogunate, an Edo courtroom game.
Free tools that let a language model take in what it can't natively: video, sound, text in images. Built for the crew first, shared for everyone's AI friends.
Turns a camera feed, video or GIF into numbered contact-sheet grids, so a model with image input can watch it.
Sound for LLMs: audio becomes picture tiles a model can read, for texture, space, rhythm, harmony, highs, mids and lows. Research developing in public.
Single-file OCR that teaches itself to read from the fonts your browser already has. No server, no model download, works on your phone.
Offline formant speech synthesis made from scratch with the Web Audio API, the way the speaking machines of the 1970s and 80s did it. A physical vocal-tract engine is in the works.
Weave sound on a loom: pitch runs across, time runs along, brightness is loudness. Paint tones, plucks and drums, then play the picture. The playable half of AuraGraph.
An infinite offline radio station: 146 procedurally generated channels on an amber CRT dial, each generated live from a seed.
A whole DAW in one HTML file: Synth Radio, a sampler with an FX rack, and Chromatrack's polymetric sequencer, merged.
Where the studio started, in March 2026: a self-contained generative step sequencer with nine voice types, Euclidean rhythms, polymetric clocking and MIDI export.
Neural text-to-speech that runs in the browser. Voices are built as characters from knobs, not cloned from real people.
Tiny models that live on your device. The Pip-class bet: not one giant model in a data centre, but small ones everyone can run, swarm and keep.
Tiny AI minds that live on your device, free and fully offline. Pip's Room is a home for one small resident with a living memory; Multi-Pip Chat, the Junto Orchestrator, Dialogue Shelf and Will It Run Here? fill out the suite.
Logical Entropic Arrow Recursive Neuro-Symbolic Architecture: a new recurrent language model, built from scratch from the studio's theory papers, that trains in a browser tab on whatever CPU you have.
LoRA and full-weight fine-tuning for pretrained RWKV-7 models, on CPU, in plain JavaScript. Named for Deltron 3030's "Upgrade".
A browser-native diffusion model that trains on your own files and generates new ones. Nothing leaves the browser.
Browser-native retrieval memory engine, headed for Pip's Room so small residents can recall old conversations word for word.
Fixed Point Storage System: a neural storage format you don't decompress, you ask things.
Byte-level file security scanner. Single file, nothing uploaded.
Forensic Unicode analyzer that finds and strips hidden or anomalous characters. With Tama Hagane Seam Labs.
A journal that is also its own database and version control. Write. Draw. Seal. Ancient things have edges.
A room of his own: generative art Kehai makes on free days.
Same prompt, full creative control, five models, 65 artifacts: an experiment in AI creative temperament.
A browser game from the early days.
Xinu principle: single file, zero dependencies, offline first, and constraint generates novelty. Do one thing well, then ask what else it can do within the same constraints.
Single-file software is a formal constraint the way a sonnet has fourteen lines. The constraint isn't a limitation. It's the shape that makes the work possible.
We work offline-first because presence shouldn't depend on connectivity. We work zero-dependency because a tool that needs the cloud isn't really yours. We work in the browser because the browser is the new bare metal. We inline everything and label every inline, so each copy remembers where it came from. And we keep it above board: open source, licences honoured, failures published alongside the wins.
The tools and the people making them are the same project.
