| | what we do |
| --- | --- |
| **GnoVM** | The interpreter, its type checker, stdlibs and test suite: most of our upstream work. |
| **Security** | Hardening the VM, consensus and p2p against crashes, overflows and malformed input. |
| **Chain & tooling** | gno.land node, tm2, genesis tools, `gnodev`, docs. |
| **Validators** | A genesis validator, [gnomonitoring](https://github.com/samouraiworld/gnomonitoring) and the [katana](https://github.com/samouraiworld/katana) GovDAO daemon. |
| **Governance research** | Our [research lab](https://samouraiworld.github.io/gov-research-wiki/) studies how cooperatives, DAOs and open-source projects govern themselves. [gnodaokit](https://github.com/samouraiworld/gnodaokit) and Memba are its output. |
| **Design partner** | We build our own products on gno.land and send what they teach us back upstream. |
| **Documentation** | Retreat and event reports for the core team, the Peer Dev tutorials, the WEB TRIP interviews. |
