Vision

The mission and vision for Synap


Mission

Create a System of Record for Human Thought

Synap is not just an application, but an ecosystem that enables users to have complete sovereignty over their data while leveraging advanced AI as a symbiotic partner.


Core Concept

The Personal Data Pod

A "bubble" of sovereign, isolated data belonging to each user, containing:

  • Their knowledge base (notes, tasks, projects)
  • Their action history (Event Store)
  • Their semantic memory (Vector DB)

Ecosystem Components

1. Synap Core OS (Data Pod)

  • Open source backend
  • Self-hostable
  • Guardian of user data
  • Headless API

2. The Architech

  • CLI for code generation
  • Plugin management
  • Extension marketplace

3. Synap Client SDK

  • Type-safe client library
  • React integration
  • Real-time support

4. Intelligence Ecosystem

  • Plugin system for adding agents
  • Marketplace for external services
  • Extensible via LangGraph workflows

Principles

Data Sovereignty

Users own and control their data completely.

Open Source

Core OS is open source and self-hostable.

Extensibility

Two mechanisms: Internal plugins and external services.

Type Safety

End-to-end type safety with TypeScript and Zod.

Event-Driven

All state changes flow through events for auditability.


Future

We envision a world where:

  • Users have complete control over their digital knowledge
  • AI acts as a partner, not a tool
  • Extensibility enables infinite possibilities
  • Open standards enable interoperability
