Make coordination durable, composable, and trustworthy.
Syncropel makes the world's knowledge and actions composable, computable, verifiable, and yours. It is an open protocol for human + AI teams to coordinate, decide, and govern together — built from immutable, signed, content-addressed records that compose into threads, accumulate evidence-based trust, and feed workflows that learn and replay.
Syncropel is not an AI framework, not a vendor SaaS, and not a blockchain. It sits alongside your tools and records what they do, with verifiable provenance and consent-gated sharing.
- Records. Every coordination event becomes a record: who did it, what kind of act (intend, do, know, learn), what content, in what thread. Signed by the actor, content-addressed by its hash, immutable from the moment it lands.
- Threads. Records group into threads — the unit of coordinated work. Git-like: fork, merge, close.
- Actors. Humans, AI agents, and automations are all first-class actors with portable identity. The protocol doesn't distinguish them structurally; every record is signed by its actor, and every actor accrues trust independently.
- Trust. Evidence-based reputation. Trust accumulates from execution history, is computed per-actor-per-domain rather than as a single score, and decays over time so old wins don't bank forever.
- Patterns. Repeated success is captured automatically. When a thread succeeds the same way often enough, its shape promotes to a reusable pattern — next time something similar appears, the proven solution replays. A single dial decides whether each task leans into replay (predictable, free) or fresh generation (novel, costlier).
- Workspaces. A workspace is a record too — versioned, forkable, federatable. Specs, dashboards, runbooks, anything you'd put in a separate tool, but as records.
- Federation. Instances pull from each other selectively; consent-gated; no central registry. Share patterns without sharing data, via a hash hierarchy that lets you publish what works while keeping the specifics private.

Hosted — fastest. Sign up at
syncropel.com/sign-up; a per-customer
Syncropel instance comes up at <your-label>.syncropel.app in about a
minute. No install, no machine to maintain. Free tier;
pricing for scale.
Self-hosted — install spl on a machine you control:
# Linux + macOS + WSL
curl -sSf https://get.syncropic.com/spl | sh
# Windows (PowerShell)
irm https://get.syncropic.com/spl.ps1 | iex
# Then
spl init && spl serve --daemonBoth paths run the same binary, expose the same APIs, and federate with each other.
If you're integrating from code, use one of the SDKs:
npm install @syncropel/sdk # TypeScript / JavaScript
pip install syncropel # PythonFull getting-started flow at docs.syncropel.com.
