What if the best compression algorithm for your data hasn't been invented yet? Algomini is an autonomous AI research lab that discovers, implements, and tests compression algorithms tailored to individual datasets. Our vision is to make custom compression an accessible, automated infrastructure optimization, to address many future problems in growing global mobile and satellite data traffic. Designing a new algorithm now is as easy as this: just invent a new plugin name and provide an archive of training samples. That's all. The dedicated Data Lab will investigate patterns, retrieve relevant research skills, ask Meta Muse Spark 1.3/Wonder to write and refine Rust candidates, and benchmark them against current SOTA baselines (gzip, xz, and zstd). The core of compressor as well as generated plugins are written in rust and optimized for performance. We are using close integration with dev environments, like GitHub, so the project is practically production-ready.
