Act the change you want to be!

Digital sovereignty and seed/germline sovereignty are inseparable. We act the change we want to be — across algorithms, machines, lives and the planet — through radically transparent substrates for food and for code.

VakeWorks AB combines research, digital sovereignty workshops/courses + services, and a small sustainable farm + genebank + charcuterie operation — all under a single self-pledge of non-monopolisation, sovereignty-respect, and substrate-transparency. The ACT Meta-Theorem generalises our EAT Theorem (food / farm) and CODE Theorem (digital / IAS framework) — see the Theorems page and the Transparency Pledge for the unified frame.


VakeWorks Vision & Pledge

Our vision is to use systems research and thinking from an algorithms-machines-lives-planet perspective, to create regenerative and resilient living systems that are economically profitable and beneficial to society and the planet.

Thus, the company conducts, facilitates, and enables production, retail, research, development, teaching, and training activities through regenerative approaches.

We treat digital sovereignty and seed / germline sovereignty as inseparable: every output of VakeWorks — a cured charcuterie, a heritage-breed piglet, a software substrate, an AI-coding-agent governance framework — sits inside the same self-pledge of non-monopolisation, sovereignty-respect, and substrate-transparency. Five paired transparency lenses (Ecological/Jurisdiction · Income/Compensation · Produce/Substrate · Process/Pipeline · Profits/Profits-Continuity) make this enforceable in the legal contracts we sign with our customers and clients. See the Transparency Pledge for the full unified frame; the image below is the single-glance summary.

VakeWorks ACT unified Transparency Framework — OpenEarth Pangea globe at the centre with five paired transparency lenses (Ecological/Jurisdiction, Income/Compensation, Produce/Substrate, Process/Pipeline, Profits/Profits-Continuity). Each lens has two tubes from the globe: a DNA-double-helix arm (food / germline-seed pledge) and a 0/1 binary-stream arm (code / digital pledge).
One unified ACT pledge — five paired transparencies, each with a food/germline-seed tube (DNA helix) and a code/digital tube (0/1 stream) emanating from the OpenEarth Pangea globe (food substrate) and meeting at one lens, with the /|\ias\|/ + {f.p.*} markers (digital substrate). See the full Transparency Pledge.

Slow Charcuterie

Slow Charcuterie collage — beef, pork and wild meats salted, smoked and air-dried in Jamtland mountain air

Charcuterie of our beef, pork and other wild animals salted, smoked and slowly air-dried for three months in the cold and dry mountain airs of Jamtland (Jämtland). Expected in Summer 2026. (Services)

Digital Sovereignty Workshops, Courses + Services

Full-day Digital Sovereignty Workshop collage — SovScaDesDisMaLOps + WASP PhD modules + bespoke consultancy

Enable teams in academia and industry. The flagship SovScaDesDisMaLOps workshop — Sovereign Scalable Data Engineering Sciences and Distributed Machine Learning Operations — is held summers in Sweden. Plus WASP PhD course offerings + bespoke digital-sovereignty consultancy for sovereign-data-infrastructure clients. (Read the workshop book · ScaDaMaLe PhD Course · Research · Services)

Research substrate

The applied research programme by Raazesh Sainudiin spans probabilistic theory of interacting agent systems, statistical contract theory, scalable data science, and applied mathematical biology — see Research for the full programme (publications · talks · CV · courses · students · software · workshops).

The most recently shipped research-substrate output: the open-source IAS framework for making human-AI coding interaction observable, measurable, and improvable. v1.3.0 multi-vendor hook substrate (June 2026).


Open source

All VakeWorks open-source work is on Codeberg (Apache-2.0):

Plus the broader OpenEarth Network initiative: foundation.protocols.* family of vendor-neutral coordination protocols.
