CorvidLabs
Crows build tools.
So do we.
Corvids are the only birds that make their own tools. We do the same with software, building developer tools, apps, and the platform we build on. Open source where it makes sense.
The idea
Four humans, a flock of agents, and tools that feed each other. fledge is the CLI and plugin system everything builds on. spec-sync keeps the specs honest, so people and agents stay on the same page. Merlin, our agent runner, runs on both. Quill lets us talk to those agents locally, no API bills.
Tools that benefit from outside adoption go public. Tools that are still being dogfooded stay private until they are ready for the public. Neither is the default. Both are deliberate. Algorand handles identity and payments where a project needs a chain.
Tools
Released and in use. These are what you can install, fork, run, depend on.
fledge
One CLI for the whole dev lifecycle
Zero-config task runner + project scaffolding + AI review. The single CI gate across every CorvidLabs project. 39 official plugins.
Deep page →spec-sync
Spec-to-code validation, CI-enforced
Markdown .spec.md files are contracts. Validates bidirectional drift between specs and code across 12 languages. GitHub Action + CLI + VS Code extension.
Deep page →augur
Deterministic change-risk scoring
Eight signals, one verdict: proceed, review, or block. No API key, no LLM. The same risk number gates humans and agents.
Deep page →attest
Signed provenance for code changes
A policy-gated trust ledger keyed to commit SHAs, stored in git notes. Ed25519 signing optional. Enforce the trust policy in CI.
Deep page →Apps
The products we're building: apps you download and APIs you build on, some of them paid. None has shipped a 1.0 yet, so this is what's coming, not what to rely on. Each launches publicly when it's ready.
Quill
Local-first voice dictation
Whisper STT + embedded llama.cpp polish + system-wide paste. Paper-first app UI. macOS .dmg and Linux x86_64 .AppImage/.deb ship as invite-only binaries; Windows next.
Deep page →Merlin
AI agent runner
Multi-provider, tier-aware, plugin-shaped. Download the Mac app to talk to your agent runner, or drive it from the terminal. Sub-agents, long-task durability, and the safety chain all shipped; dogfooded internally before release.
Deep page →Podo
Weather app for iOS + Android
The consumer surface: a multi-platform weather app with personality. iOS, Android, and web from one shared KMP core. Runs on the Rita API.
Deep page →Rita
Hosted weather API
The Rust backend Podo runs on, offered as a hosted weather API: get an API key, get weather. The developer-facing half of the weather stack.
Deep page →Open source
Read the source. It's short on purpose. The public org carries the tools, the protocol implementations, and the swift-* library family. Strict concurrency, zero dependencies where we can manage it, Linux-tested where it counts.
See for yourself.
The work is the pitch. Open source where it makes sense, dogfooded everywhere.
