An indie AI lab. Small team, big ideas. We make products at the intersection of AI, civic tech, and creative tools — thoughtful, unusual, and actually useful.
Blacksky Labs is an indie AI studio — the kind of place where curiosity leads and polish follows. We're a small, focused team building in the open, iterating fast, and shipping things that actually work.
We don't have a corporate agenda. We have a genuine interest in what AI can do when it's applied carefully — to civic accountability, creative expression, novel interfaces, and the edges where things get interesting.
From swarm intelligence with no neural nets to two-stage image generation pipelines that think before they paint — we explore AI beyond the obvious.
Technology in service of accountability. We build tools that help people understand their government and engage with the systems that govern them.
Tools for making — for artists, builders, and anyone who wants to create something that didn't exist before. Craft-forward, aesthetics-first.
The current moment in AI is noisy. Everyone is building, but not everyone is thinking. We try to slow down enough to ask good questions before writing a line of code.
We care about craft. We care about ethics. And we care about the people who end up using the things we make. That's not a mission statement — it's just how we work.
A two-stage image generation tool that thinks before it paints. Cinematic control. Prompt intelligence built in.
Intelligence without words. A swarm system built on NLM — Natural Learning Mechanisms. No neural networks. Just emergent behavior.
587 members of Congress. Ideology scores, voting records, legislative activity, and media tracking — all in one place.
Language tools built with intention. Making NLP accessible, practical, and worth using — without the enterprise price tag.
An AI-powered sales agent built to qualify leads, handle objections, and keep pipelines moving. Sell while you sleep.
A platform designed for institutional investors and strategic partners looking to engage with next-generation AI ventures.
Something new is taking shape behind the curtain. Details to follow.
In development. More soon.
