Recursive AI

We build open tools for software that agents and people use.

Open-source libraries, APIs that agents can call, and free tools that run in your browser.

What we’re building

Open-source libraries

Available

Small, focused libraries for everyday file formats, starting with YAML.

oneyaml: YAML for Rust, with typed reads and edits that keep your comments. C# and Go are next.

APIs for agents and apps

Coming soon

Hosted APIs for documents and data, designed for AI agents to call. Pay as you go, with a free allowance first.

Free web tools

Coming soon

Everyday file and data tools that run in your browser. Free, no account.

Built by one person and a fleet of agents

Recursive AI is Kurtis Welch and a fleet of AI agents working on Alera, the system he built for making software with agents. Agents write, test and ship the code; Kurtis decides what to build. Alera isn’t a product we sell. Sponsorship helps fund the open-source work it produces.
