Post-transformer architecture · v1.0
The sovereign cognitive organism.
Crisol is not an LLM. It is an architecture that reasons about its own reasoning, keeps living memory across sessions, imports knowledge like installing an app, and runs 100% on your device. No cloud. No amnesia. No black box.
Where the transformer hits a wall, Crisol changes paradigm.
Today's LLMs carry five structural problems that more data and more parameters won't fix. Crisol solves them by architecture.
And 20 more. See the full catalogue →
Founding doctrine
Four non-negotiable sovereignties.
Technical
The model runs 100% on your hardware. No external APIs, no mandatory telemetry, no degradation if the network drops.
Cognitive
Each Crisol is a unique entity. Its memory, its experts, its decision history — all of it is your indivisible property.
Economic
Packaged knowledge is a licensed, transferable asset. It can be sold, donated or inherited.
Agentic
Decisions are traceable to named agents with responsibility. Not a statistical black box.
Six pillars no transformer has.
HoloBinder O(1)
Constant-cost context memory. No quadratic self-attention.
Go deeper →Living memory
3 layers, 8 memory types. The conversation that lasts years, without amnesia.
Go deeper →Native agentic
4 Z-agents + 6 subagents woven into the forward pass. Not a script on top.
Go deeper →Causal reasoning
do() counterfactuals, 512 physical invariants, automatic causal dreaming.
Go deeper →Anti-hallucination
5 defense layers by construction, not a filter at the end.
Go deeper →Custodia ecosystem
Importable .crisolpkg experts, like installing apps. An open knowledge market.
Go deeper →Real project status
The first Crisol already breathes.
It's not a paper. The first Crisol Mini has been trained from scratch: 5,000 steps without a single NaN, the loss falling from 45 to a best of 3.5 and causal reasoning switching on by itself. All in 24 hours and for ten cents of electricity.

Who should own the cognitive reasoning of the 21st century: five closed corporations, or every person, as their own transferable asset?
Crisol exists because the answer to that question matters.
