Hearth

Autonomy-aware runtime.

Runs autonomous workloads across cloud, edge, on-device, and on-robot — with first-class awareness of tokens, models, memory, and embodiment.

What it is

The role Hearth plays.

Hearth is where autonomous actors execute. It schedules, runs, and supervises actors across heterogeneous compute with awareness of the dimensions that distinguish autonomous workloads from generic ones: token budgets, model availability, tool dependencies, memory lifecycle, latency objectives, embodiment constraints. Every actor runs under a budget, a model routing policy, a memory binding, and a safety envelope. The runtime enforces them. Built on durable execution: when a process crashes, work resumes from the last checkpoint — state is never lost.

The problem

What goes wrong without it.

Generic schedulers are blind to the dimensions that determine whether an autonomous workload succeeds. Kubernetes does not understand token budgets. Lambda does not understand provider fallback. Robotics middleware does not understand cost ceilings. Operators are left running autonomous workloads on infrastructure designed for stateless requests, with autonomy-specific concerns built into application code, inconsistently, across every team.

Capabilities

What Hearth does.

Open and commercial

Built in the open. Run anywhere.

Hearth is delivered through two surfaces: an open-source reference in Lattice Runtime (MPL 2.0), and a managed, enterprise-grade delivery in Visca Cloud. Features in the open never move behind the paywall.

Open

Lattice Runtime — open foundation

MPL 2.0 · self-hostable · foundation-track governance

  • ·Single-node reference runtime
  • ·Local executor
  • ·Model routing primitives
  • ·Memory adapters (in-memory, local disk, SQL)
  • ·Behavioral envelope enforcement

Commercial

Visca Cloud — managed delivery

Hosted SaaS · self-managed · hybrid · air-gapped

  • ·Multi-cluster control plane
  • ·Hosted Hearth executors across regions
  • ·Provider rate-limit pooling across customers
  • ·Cost governance across organization
  • ·High-availability control plane
