// patent-first ideas for the physical cost of compute
Ideas to cool the machines with anything but water.
Every prompt runs on electricity, and much of that heat is still carried away by evaporating water. We produce vetted, sourced ideas to change that — dry cooling, heat reuse, smarter siting, honest metering — protect them with provisional patents, and list them here. Back one early, or licence it when it's proven.

Fund the prototype
Every idea is protected by a provisional patent before it is listed. Seed capital takes it from patent to working prototype — the stage where the large operators start paying attention. Get in before they do.

// how an idea gets listed
Researched, attacked, then listed
- 01 · research
Evidence first
Every idea starts from published, measured work — with a source for every claim, or a to confirm where there isn't one.
- 02 · engineering
Made buildable
Mechanism, what it replaces, cost, risk and who could pilot it inside 24 months.
- 03 · review
Built to survive scrutiny
A senior reviewer tries to break the physics and the economics. Weak ideas never reach the marketplace.
- 04 · protect
Patent first
A human editor signs it off, then a provisional patent goes on file before the idea is ever shown here.
