Frontier AI, built in Australia.
Maincode is an Australian AI research company building Matilda, an assistant that understands complex work, reasons over context, and takes meaningful action safely. We train our own models, on our own hardware, in Melbourne.
At our core
A small, technically serious team. These are the seven we actually hire and argue by.
- 01
Move Humans Forward
The work only counts if someone can do something today they could not do yesterday. Benchmarks are evidence, never the point.
- 02
Do The Hard Thing
Training our own models on our own hardware is harder than renting someone else's API. We chose it because the shortcut does not get you a sovereign model.
- 03
Take Point
Whoever sees the problem owns it. No waiting to be assigned, no passing it down the chain, no meeting to decide who decides.
- 04
It's 2AM in the Lab
The interesting runs finish at odd hours. We are the kind of team that is there when they do, because that is when you learn the most.
- 05
Stay Foolish
Research taste means backing an idea before it is obvious, and being willing to look wrong for as long as the evidence takes to arrive.
- 06
High Voltage
Small team, real compute, short decisions. Energy is a resource, and we would rather spend it on the problem than on the process.
- 07
Ship
A model that never leaves the lab helps nobody. Put it in front of people, watch what breaks, and let that be the judge.
