Authoritative state
Scenes, persistence, validated transitions, save/load, replay, and world-state ownership stay with the runtime.
VANTA Engine · active development
Build the world. Own the runtime.
VANTA is a native engine direction for worlds, simulation, graphics, machine learning, and deterministic state. The host runtime remains authoritative while models, tools, and evaluators operate through defined seams.
Status boundary
VANTA is described here as a product and engineering direction. This page separates current build direction, demonstrated evidence, and future plans. It does not publish private runtime packages, unreviewed adapters, or a universal capability claim.
Core capability groups
One runtime, several ways to create.
These are the durable capability areas the engine is organized around. Each feature carries its own evidence status rather than inheriting certainty from the product name.
Native graphics
Rendering, WebTracing, native super sampling, materials, lighting, and viewport work belong to the engine surface.
Physics and sensors
Time, agents, sensors, and simulated conditions can be exercised without promoting a simulation into a deployment claim.
Tools and assets
Authoring tools, asset interfaces, and procedural systems support creation without requiring a hosted service.
Capture and evaluation
Dataset capture, inference seams, and model evaluation can observe the world while the host keeps authority.
Plugins and interchange
Extension points and defined content boundaries allow Cartographer and future tools to participate without becoming hidden dependencies.
World & runtime
Let the world remain the source of truth.
VANTA is designed around an authoritative runtime that receives observations, validates transitions, owns persistence, and can reconstruct what happened. A model can propose an action; the world decides whether it is valid.
Observe The runtime exposes a bounded observation.
Propose A tool, model, or agent produces a candidate action.
Validate The host checks state, policy, and transition rules.
Record The resulting evidence remains distinguishable from a design target.
Creation workflow
Cartographer is optional, VANTA is not a hosted editor.
Cartographer can author space and exchange content through defined seams. VANTA can run a world without requiring Cartographer, a Hub account, or an AI provider.
Cartographer
Create, inspect, edit, validate, and exchange geometry locally.

What this page is willing to say.
VANTA's public surface stays useful without pretending that a roadmap, simulation, or internal build is the same as a measured production feature.
Native engine boundaries
The product identity, world-state ownership, authoring relationship, and evidence vocabulary are public.
Observable work
See the Showcase for bounded entries that identify what produced them and what kind of evidence they represent.

This page does not claim hardware parity, finished production support, private integrations, or a public source release beyond the stated boundary.
