Prime Directive Labs
Who We Are
Prime Directive Labs is a research and development organization building coordination infrastructure for civilization-scale challenges.
We develop autonomous systems, license technology, and partner with institutions working on problems that span generations.
Core Operations
Research & Development
We conduct fundamental research across eight domains: economic intelligence, space infrastructure, autonomous food production, human-AI integration, biological optimization, global networks, automation systems, and coordination protocols.
Technology Licensing
We develop proprietary technology and license it to enterprises, governments, and research institutions. Our systems are designed to operate at scale.
Institutional Partnerships
We collaborate with universities, space agencies, and industry partners on joint research programs. We pursue government R&D grants and strategic partnerships.
Protocol Development
We created AETERNOS, a coordination protocol governed by its participants. The protocol is managed by the Prime Directive Foundation, a separate non-profit entity.
Two Entities, One Mission
This structure separates commercial operations from protocol governance.

Engineering Humanity
We build autonomous systems that expand human capability across cosmic timeframes.
Why Coordination is Civilization's Great Filter
The Fermi Paradox isn't just a question about aliens — it's a question about survival. We believe civilizations that survive are the ones that achieve an ontological shift: from separate individuals competing, to one system recognizing itself through many perspectives.
Read the full thesisHow We Think
Coordination Over Control
Intelligence is most powerful when distributed. We build open infrastructure to ensure the future is a commons, not a private estate.
Systems Over Solutions
We build systems that evolve and adapt. Each Sentinel operates autonomously while coordinating with others.
Humanity Over Technology
Technology serves human flourishing. Every system expands human capability, not replaces human agency.
Futures Over Predictions
We don't predict what will happen. We engineer what should happen, then coordinate to make it reality.
The Sentinel of Humanity
8 autonomous systems working in coordination.Each addressing an existential challenge.
How We Build
Human Flourishing
Every system expands human capability and potential.
Transparent Coordination
Decentralized governance through AETERNOS. Full visibility into decisions and operations.
Technical Excellence
Precision engineering. No compromise on quality, performance, or user experience.
Cosmic Timeframes
Decisions evaluated from immediate impact to multi-generational consequences.
Join the Coordination
For Institutions
We partner with research institutions, government agencies, and enterprises on coordination infrastructure projects.
PartnershipsFor Investors
Prime Directive Labs Inc. raises equity investment to fund research and development. We do not sell tokens to investors.
Investor InformationFor Builders
The Foundation issues ecosystem grants for developers building on the protocol.
Developer GrantsFor Everyone
