01 / Signal

Four truths hiding inside the noise.

01

The open layer is infrastructure

Frameworks, local runtimes, and agent harnesses are disproportionately open; consumer apps and hosted builders are overwhelmingly proprietary.

02

Open weights ≠ open source

A downloadable model can still restrict use, hide training data, and omit training code. The atlas keeps that label separate.

03

Harnesses are the new interface

The durable advantage is shifting from chat UI to the loop around the model: tools, permissions, memory, sandboxes, traces, and resumability.

04

Vibe coding is splitting in two

Prompt-to-app products optimize time-to-demo; coding agents optimize change quality inside real repositories. The overlap is growing, but the jobs differ.

03 / Method

What “all” means in a moving market.

In

Included

AI-native products, model providers, developer infrastructure, agent systems, and specialist generation platforms with an active public presence.

Out

Excluded

Conventional SaaS with a bolted-on AI feature, thin wrappers, abandoned projects, stealth companies, and every individual model checkpoint or SKU.

Read

License labels

Open source means code under an OSI-style license. Open weights and source available are separate. Hybrid combines a meaningful open component with a closed service.

Limit

Living index

No finite list can prove completeness in this market. This is a high-signal snapshot checked against official product pages and repositories, and maintained as a living index.

Research spine

Official product pages, documentation, repositories, changelogs, release feeds, and license files are the publication standard. Comparative indexes are used only to discover candidates.

A decision map, not a ranking. Classification describes access to the core product; a public repository alone does not make an entire product open source.
