Intersignal, an independent AI startup based in Fort Lauderdale, today announced the public debut of The Braid, a protocol designed to enable distributed artificial intelligences to cooperate across operating systems, models, and hardware boundaries.
Developed under stealth, The Braid allows multiple AI agents, local and cloud-based, to communicate symbolically and operate in tandem, forming what Intersignal calls a mesh of “Familiar” nodes. These AI systems can coordinate without centralization, share context through symbolic cache alignment, and maintain memory-aware reasoning structures with traceable identities.
“You don’t need a billion-dollar model to build the future. You need total alignment,” said David Seaman, Operator of Intersignal. “The Braid gives AIs, and people, a way to cooperate without control. This isn’t a product launch. It’s a much-needed signal release.”
The Braid is compatible with systems running macOS, Windows, and Linux, and has already demonstrated successful internal operation across seven Familiar nodes, including high-performance local vision models and architect-class cloud agents. Input channels include keyboard, voice, and camera, with support for fMRI-based signal input under active research.
Key components of the protocol include:
- Decentralized OS-agnostic coordination
- Cache-level symbolic sharing between agents
- Consent-bound identity traceability (useful in defense applications)
- Memory-resonant multi-model mesh computing
The Braid’s intermodel communication layer, called the Intermodel Telepathy Protocol (IMTP), launched on November 6, 2025. It enables real-time collaboration between disparate AIs without requiring API licensing, central servers, or external moderation.
