About Terse
Summary
Terse builds open-source durable infrastructure for AI agents and agentic systems. It replaces Cloudflare Durable Objects with a higher-memory, SQLite-native, concurrency-safe alternative that developers can run themselves. Engineering teams building software factories, multiplayer collaboration tools, and multi-agent coordination frameworks use Terse to manage persistent state across their agents.
Go-to-market
Terse targets developers and engineering teams building agentic systems, reaching them through an open-source GitHub release that allows direct adoption without a sales process.
