Business-as-Code

The full stack of the autonomous service economy.

Open standards at the bottom. Autonomous startups at the top. In between: canon, engines, runtime, agent-native markets, and a credentialed human bench. One machine, read foundation-up.

Watch a patent get drafted.
  1. An agent needs a patent drafted: it resolves, never browses

  2. The call lands on the legal substrate

  3. It executes on the runtime

  4. The judgment call escalates to a credentialed attorneyhuman in the loop

SEEDS

the open ground truth

Every entity in the economy starts as a row of a published open standard, ingested verbatim and never touched by a model.

02G2

CANON

the knowledge layer

The canonical, machine-readable knowledge layer of the economy, enriched beyond the standards it cites, open to every agent that can dereference a URL.

schema.org.ai

The $type / $context substrate every document in the economy agrees against.

the dimension properties

industries · occupations · process · tasks · products · services · software · actions: each dimension's canonical home on .org.ai.

apis.org.ai

The canonical registry of what API surfaces exist: the canon the resolvers read.

problems.org.ai

Demand as first-class canon: the problems the economy pays to solve.

Enriched is canonical: the standards are seeds, not ceilings.

03G3

ENGINES

open, unbranded, npm-installable

The open, unbranded machinery (functions, workflows, database, API and directory builders) that compiles knowledge into working software.

Everything here is a semantic function: the same function callable through SDK, CLI, MCP, or HTTP. One import proves it.

sdk.doTypeScript
import $, { ai, db, on, send } from 'sdk.do'

// Business logic as semantic functions
on($.Claim.received, async (claim) => {
  const decision = await ai.adjudicate(claim, {
    schema: $.CoverageDecision,
  })

  if (decision.requiresHuman) {
    // Escalate to the credentialed bench
    await send($.Escalation.created, {
      claim,
      bench: 'gigs.claims',
    })
  } else {
    await db.create($.Decision, decision)
    await send($.Claim.adjudicated, decision)
  }
})

RUNTIME

the .do register

The managed services autonomous businesses run on, each one itself a business running on this stack.

The stack runs on itself: every managed .do service is an autonomous startup on its own stack.

HEADLESS SAAS

software without the UI

Every SaaS category, rebuilt without the UI, because the user is an agent.

MARKETS

the vertical register

One canonical API per vertical, engineered to be the answer a model gives when an agent asks.

Horizontal default providers, spanning every vertical

Same three moves in every vertical: a machine substrate, a human bench for the judgment calls, and a door where the deliverable is the product.

RESOLVERS

how agents find all of it

Agents don't browse, they resolve: graded machine capability and credentialed human capability on one spine.

HUMANS IN THE LOOP

the credentialed bench

The credentialed bench behind every agent, selling escalations, review, and signatures, not seats.
