Our Mission

Extending AI capabilities through modular servers

MODL was created with a clear mission: to provide a flexible, secure, and powerful extension framework for AI terminals. We believe that specialized AI capabilities should be modular, allowing developers to install only what they need.

Our goal is to create an ecosystem where both official and community-developed servers can extend the capabilities of Cognitive Architecture, enabling developers to build custom workflows and specialized tools for their unique needs.

By providing a standardized protocol for AI model context and capabilities, we're building a future where AI terminals can be customized and extended to meet the specific requirements of any developer or organization.

2022

Security & Privacy

Our commitment to secure AI extensions

Security is a core consideration in the MODL server system design. All servers run in isolated containers with strict permission controls to ensure that your data and systems remain secure.

Every official MODL server undergoes rigorous security testing and code review before release. Community servers are scanned for vulnerabilities and must meet our security standards before being listed in the server directory.

Isolated Execution

Each server runs in its own container with limited permissions and resource constraints.

End-to-End Encryption

All communication between the terminal, MODL client, and servers is encrypted.

Comprehensive Auditing

Detailed logs of all server activities with configurable retention policies.

Security Certifications

SOC 2 Type II

Certified for security, availability, processing integrity, confidentiality, and privacy.

ISO 27001

Compliant with international standards for information security management.

GDPR Compliant

Designed with privacy-by-default principles and full GDPR compliance.
