Engine
AvailableOne query, every retrieval signal.
Vectors, full text, sparse and filters in one plan, over open formats in your bucket.
Releasev0.1.4, open source under Apache-2.0
Don’t rent a cloud. Loam it.
Build software with agents, on ground you own. Run your coding agents side by side in The Field, keep your toolchain in The Greenhouse, and build it all on an open data platform in your own bucket. Free and open source. Runs on ground you own.

Three products for building with agents.
Open source under Apache-2.0, with an honest status on each.
The Field
Experimental, in 0.1.0Every coding agent, side by side, in a plot of its own.
Parallel coding agents, each working in its own plot (a git worktree), side by side in the console. Run Claude Code, Codex, opencode and other agent CLIs, review their diffs, approve their tool calls and merge the best result. This is Loams Studio, on the desktop or in the browser, through a daemon you run.
The Greenhouse
Experimental, desktopYour development toolchain, next to your agents.
The toolchain beside the agents: Forgejo, Zulip, Plane, GlitchTip, Langfuse and more, in the same window as your coding agents. Issues and errors become threads, threads become pull requests. This is the Loams Software Factory; its agent loop is being redesigned.
The Seed Exchange
Coming soonAgents, apps and harnesses for your own Loams.
Agents, apps and harnesses to add to your own install, with their permissions and licences shown before anything is created. This is the Loams Marketplace. Coming soon.
One open data platform underneath.
Studio and the factory run beside the platform today, in the same console and repository. Their designs put agent runs, memory and the loop on Durable, Live and Git next.

Bedrock
Your bucket: S3, GCS, Azure Blob, RustFS or a local folder, in open formats.
Who it's for.
Primarily service-as-software companies, and any team building with coding agents.
If your product is AI agents doing service work, the cloud bill is your cost of goods. Renting it from a landlord who sets the price eats your margin. Loams runs your agents and their data on ground you own: compute in your account, data in your bucket, in open formats, so the cost of each run is yours to control. Don’t rent a cloud. Loam it.
Three systems on one bucket.
Loams Live
AvailableQueries that update themselves.
Documents and transactions that push new results the moment the data changes.
Loams Durable
AvailableAgent runs that survive restarts.
Every step is a durable promise, so a crashed run resumes without repeating work.
Bedrock at the bottom, one binary on top.

Engineering notes.
Start in The Field.
Loams Desktop opens in The Field, Loams Studio, with its agent daemon bundled. The data platform runs with Docker Compose on your laptop or your VMs, reachable only over your tailnet.
