OpenEarth Network

A federated platform for governed AI, data commons, and company-owned models. Built on the Matrix protocol. Open standards. No lock-in.

What is OpenEarth?

An open-source ecosystem for sovereign data and AI — from individual organisations to federated commons.

Sovereign AI Governance

Record every AI interaction as signed, end-to-end encrypted Matrix events. Approval workflows, kill switch, cost tracking. EU AI Act compliant by architecture.

Data Commons

Consent-gated data sharing on federated Matrix rooms. Ostrom-governed — clear boundaries, proportional contribution, right to withdraw. GDPR-native by design.

AI Commons

Train open-source models (Mistral, Qwen, Gemma) on consented commons data. 7-step pipeline: proposal, consent, ethics review, training, evaluation, publication.

Dual AI Pathway

Use external AI (Claude, GPT) via governed gateway AND/OR build internal models on your own data. Model router decides per query. Same audit trail for both pathways.

188 Protocol Events

foundation.protocols.* — 42 Claude + 15 observation + 15 gryph + 5 hooks + 4 certification + 37 Hopsworks + 11 Ansvar + 17 AI governance + 8 IAS + 1 cost + 4 data + 11 EUDR + 18 legal events. 14 families. Apache 2.0 spec.

Federated by Design

Matrix protocol — sovereign homeservers federate freely on the open internet. Any scale: laptop to data centre. On-prem, sovereign cloud, or paired deployment.

Supply Chain Traceability

EUDR compliance: geolocation, satellite deforestation verification, chain-of-custody, due diligence statements — all recorded as immutable Matrix events.

Company AI Platforms

Each organisation gets sovereign infrastructure: own homeserver, own data vault, own AI models, own branded messenger. No lock-in. Handover option at any time.

\|/ias/|\

Interaction Analysis of Interacting Agent Systems. Seven protocols to make Claude Code sessions observable, measurable, improvable — gates, context management, cost tracking, continuous documentation. Apache-2.0, v1.0 live on Codeberg.

Architecture

Three layers — each independently useful, together a complete sovereign AI stack.

Layer 0: AI & ML Governance Bridges

Transparent proxies recording all AI, ML, and legal interactions. Claude Bridge (85 events, HTTP proxy + certification engine) + Hopsworks Bridge (37 events, SDK wrapper) + Ansvar Bridge (11 events, MCP proxy) + Gryph observation (15 events, system hooks). Correlated governance timeline.

Matrix Homeserver

Sovereign, E2EE, federated. Your infrastructure — on-prem, sovereign cloud, or both (paired deployment with live sync).

OpenEarth Messenger

Open-source Kotlin/Compose client. 116 custom views across 6 domains, approval buttons, cost dashboards, colour-coded accent bands. White-label for branded client apps.

Protocol spec: protocols.foundation · Claude Bridge: Trixnity 4.22.7 (Kotlin) · Hopsworks Bridge: Python + matrix-nio · Ansvar Bridge: Python MCP proxy · Messenger: Trixnity 5.4.0 + Compose Multiplatform · Split licensing: Apache 2.0 (events) / AGPL 3.0 (views, app)

Get Started

Build the Messenger

Clone the repo and run the desktop app:

git clone https://codeberg.org/openearth/openearth-messenger.git  # messenger coming soon
cd openearth-messenger
./gradlew :openearth-app:run
# Protocol spec + IAS + openearth-gryph already on Codeberg
