DCS Labs research agenda · v2026.05.31

72 features.
One founder. One stack.
Built in public.

A complete map of what DCS Labs is researching — from the 9-piece moat already in production to 57 frontier features across space, defence, healthcare, agriculture, climate, and AGI. Every entry is honest about status. No vapor.

The 9-piece moat

The compounding-advantage stack at the centre of DCS — six features that are operational + three more in advanced prototype. None of these are easy to clone; each took multiple research cycles. Click any tile to jump to its full entry in the explorer below.

Claude-suggested · 11-feature parallel roadmap

F1–F11 · the features Claude proposed, then we built

A research collaboration with Claude (Anthropic) produced an 11-feature parallel roadmap covering Agent Studio, sovereign compute, post-quantum crypto, self-evolving agents, AGI research infrastructure, revenue hooks, MCP servers, verified-marks, and the public Agents API. All 11 are built and deployed today. 5 are research-stage, 6 are operational.

Phased roadmap

The 4-phase ship plan

DCS Labs ships in phases. Phase 1 (Launch + Core Moats) is done. Phase 2 (Sovereign + Pilot deepening) is partially done. Phases 3 + 4 are the frontier — what funds + partnerships unlock.

How we classify

Three labels. No bullshit.

Most companies show roadmaps where everything is "shipping soon". We split the 72 into three honest buckets. Hover-test it: if a feature is in partial, you'll see exactly what's done + what's still open.

✓ Shipped

Built, deployed, operational

Core deliverable in production. Not behind a default-OFF flag. A small polish item may still be open — shown honestly under each feature.

▮ Partial

Built, but not finished

Built + deployed but flag-gated OFF, at prototype/v0.1 stage, or with core capability incomplete. Each shows what's done + what's still pending.

✗ Roadmap

Direction, not delivery

Vision items. Space, defence, healthcare, agri, climate, disaster, finance, education — areas DCS aims to enter as funding, partnerships, and team allow.

This is research, not marketing.

Every feature here links to its whitepaper + the repo where it's being built. If you're a research partner, investor, or want to ship something with us — start here.

Sensitive categories (defence, medical, space, financial, government) are research-mode only — see /research-policy for per-category legal framing.
