R&D
We publish the hard parts.
Applied research in cryptography, quantum and AI. Papers go out open-access, and research engagements answer one hard question for your team, in writing.

ProductOne lab.
One lab.
Four ways in.
Research, engineering, advice and teaching, all from the same engineers.
Product lines
Start where your problem is.
Product engineering
Prototype to production, in your repo.
POC sprints, smart-contract sprints and AI workflow automation. Fixed scope, fixed price, and code that lives in your GitHub from the first commit.
See the servicesConsultancy
A senior engineer on your side.
A technical brief before you spend, or a fractional CTO checking the work every month. Architecture, hiring and vendor calls, with the reasoning written down.
Talk to an engineerTraining
Hard cryptography, taught properly.
Rump Gurukul's 40-hour zero-knowledge course, hands-on workshops, and invited lectures. The same people who build the systems teach them.

Four fields.
Researched, then built.
AI
Agents that hold up on real data.
Cryptography
Zero-knowledge, MPC and the maths underneath.
Blockchain
Contracts and protocols, read line by line.
Quantum
Secure computation, from the research end.
How we work
Four rules we keep.
- Rule 01Pre-signScope in writingWhat ships, the date and the price, agreed up front.
- Rule 02Day 1You own everythingYour repo, cloud and keys from the first commit.
- Rule 031st callYou meet the builderThe engineer on the call is the one doing the work.
- Rule 04CC BYPublic workOpen papers, public code. Check us before you call.

We'll pick the door.
Thirty minutes with an engineer, free. You'll leave knowing which of the four fits, or that none of them does.
