100% Open Standards
No proprietary vendor lock-in at any layer. You own your infrastructure.
Why Open Standards Matter
Vendor lock-in isn't just inconvenient—it's a strategic vulnerability. When your infrastructure is built on proprietary systems, you're held hostage to pricing changes, feature roadmaps you don't control, and migration costs that make switching impossible.
We built Thalamus AI on a different principle: every layer of our stack uses open standards. Not "mostly open with some proprietary bits." Not "open core with paid extensions." Genuinely open, all the way down.
Our Commitment
No Vendor Lock-In
Your data is yours. Your infrastructure is yours. Export everything. Migrate anywhere. We build tools, not traps.
Standard Protocols Only
REST APIs, PostgreSQL, Redis, OpenAPI specs. Technologies that have been battle-tested by millions of deployments.
Data Portability
Standard formats. Clear documentation. Export utilities. Your data flows where you need it, when you need it.
Public Governance
Our roadmap is public. Our architecture decisions are documented. You know what's coming and why.

What This Means for You
No Surprise Price Increases
Because you can migrate to another provider or self-host, we can't hold your data hostage to arbitrary pricing changes.
You Control the Roadmap
If we don't build a feature you need, you can. If we sunset something you use, you can fork it. Your infrastructure, your rules.
Standards-Based Integration
Every tool in your stack that supports standard protocols works with Thalamus. No proprietary connectors. No vendor-specific APIs.
Future-Proof Architecture
Open standards evolve slowly and deliberately. What works today will work in 5 years. No forced migrations. No breaking changes.
