FoodX is an autonomous food network that people, robots, and machines use to know, act, exchange, and own in the food economy (on FoodBlock, an open protocol).
Our mission is decentralising the food economy to increase individual freedom. We commit 25% of profits to food charities.
An MIT-licensed, content-addressed protocol with three fields (type, state, refs) and six base types. Every participant writes blocks in the same format (producers, venues, robots, autonomous systems) creating a shared record of provenance, trust, and exchange that works without proprietary platforms.
The intelligence layer running in each node. FoodOS ingests natural language, visual input, and sensor data, writes FoodBlocks to the shared record, and coordinates with other nodes, whether operated by people or autonomous systems. It handles memory, permissions, trust evaluation, and the execution of delegated tasks within user-defined boundaries.
Download a node and access the peer-to-peer food economy. Each node runs FoodOS, reads and writes the shared FoodBlock record, discovers local supply and demand, negotiates exchanges, and coordinates with other participants. Users control identity, memory, and permissions, retaining sovereignty over their data and the ability to exit without abandoning history.
FoodBlock is federated like email, not siloed like a marketplace. Participants own the blocks they create. Operational history stays participant capital, not platform leverage.
Identity, memory, permissions, and relationships are controlled by the participant, not the intermediary. You can change tools without losing history, challenge records, and exit without abandoning trust earned.
Humans, autonomous vehicles, humanoid robots, drones, and software agents all write and read FoodBlocks. The protocol treats them as actors with different capabilities, not separate systems that cannot coordinate.
Each block connects to others via refs, creating a traversable graph from a finished product back to the farm, harvest, or certification. Provenance is embedded in the record structure, not asserted externally.
The system expands individual capability. Understand where food comes from. Turn knowledge into meals. Find willing partners and agree your own terms. Retain usable records and carry trust into new relationships.
FoodX is built by a mission-aligned team focused on decentralising the food economy to increase individual freedom and reduce waste.
We're always looking for talented people who care about food systems, open protocols, and individual sovereignty.
Try FoodX by downloading a node or joining the waitlist. Each participant gets an actor block, cryptographic identity, and the ability to read and write the shared record.
Developers can implement FoodBlock in any language. The protocol specification, reference implementations, and SDK are public and MIT-licensed on GitHub.

FoodX is an autonomous food network built on FoodBlock, an open protocol. It lets people, robots, and machines coordinate in the food economy through a shared, content-addressed record. Each participant runs a node, an autonomous system that understands natural language, writes blocks, and coordinates with others.
FoodBlock is an MIT-licensed protocol with three fields (type, state, refs) and six base types (actor, place, substance, transform, transfer, observe). It is federated, content-addressed, and append-only. Anyone can implement it without permission.
Download a node or join the waitlist through the site. Once registered, you receive cryptographic identity and access to the peer-to-peer network. Developers can start building immediately using the SDK and documentation.
Yes. FoodBlock is MIT-licensed, federated like email, and designed to prevent any single entity from owning the food economy's operational record. The specification, reference implementations, and SDK are public on GitHub.
25% of profits are directed to food-related charities focused on nutrition, environmental protection, and animal welfare. Current partners include Action Against Hunger, Beat, Mary's Meals, Slow Food International, Viva!, and WaterAid.
The protocol treats humans and autonomous systems as actors with different capabilities. Robots, drones, vehicles, and software agents register with Ed25519 keypairs, scoped permissions, and approval thresholds. High-value actions queue for human confirmation, routine actions auto-approve within defined limits.
