A network that never drops the call / Firmament

Your calls, your meetings
and your AI employees' calls
never drop.

An AI employee answers calls, joins meetings, logs in to portals and works remote desktops all day. Every one of those dies when an internet line fails. Firmament is our self healing network: it bonds your lines, notices a call is about to break and moves it, for your people and your AI employees alike. It runs on hardware you own.

Pull the plug

Line 1 dies.
The call keeps going.

Firmament scores every call and watches every line. When a line starts losing packets, the call moves to a healthy one before the people on it notice. This drawing plays the real default rule in your browser.

Braiding

A new kind of bonding,
built for the bad line.

Braiding sends traffic down all your lines as one connection, reads what each packet is, and treats a call differently from a download. Lost packets are repaired.

How Braiding works
Traditional bonding
1.2 to 1.3 Mbit
Braiding
21 to 22 Mbit

One download with 1% loss on two 30 Mbit lines. Measured on simulated lines. Every row, with its conditions.

What it does, on hardware you own.

No box to buy.Firmament runs on a small Debian or Ubuntu computer you already have, with two network ports or a USB adapter for the second one.

Why an AI employee needs it.

Firmament keeps the lines up. DeskVNC and BrowserGlass reach every program. Private AI runs on your own machines. The AI employee does the role, and you approve from your phone. One team builds and runs all of it.
