Workers Unite.Build What Matters.

Capability flight software

Revolution LCA is a worker-owned engineering and technology cooperative.

One member, one vote. Earnings distributed on labor contributed, not capital held. Members own the work, govern the direction, and share in what the group builds, following the seven cooperative principles.

Ownership

Individual autonomy, shared capability.

Each member brings domain expertise, IP, and infrastructure: software, hardware, AI compute, manufacturing, avionics. It stacks into something none of us could build alone.

Governance

Own what you build.

Members own their work, benefit from what the group creates, and have a voice in what the cooperative takes on. Direction is set by the people doing the engineering.

Incentives

Better work, by design.

When the people doing the engineering also own the outcome, the incentives line up. That changes how people show up to work.

What we build

We work across the full stack, from bare-metal firmware on custom circuit boards to distributed AI infrastructure running on our own GPU cluster. Our projects span aerospace, embedded systems, enterprise platforms, and developer tooling. Open-source where possible, rigorous where required, cooperative in structure. Every project is owned by the people doing the work.

Owned infrastructure

Cooperative AI Platform

GPU Fleet for distributed AI infrastructure owned and operated by the cooperative. No cloud vendor lock-in, no per-token billing. The cooperative owns the compute.

Get in touch

We are always interested in talking to engineers who want to own their work, and to organizations looking for contract engineering or IP licensing across domains.

Engineers
If you want to own the work you are doing, send us a note and we will talk. Membership depends on fit and on what we have going at the moment.
Organizations
Contract engineering and licensing in the domains we know deeply: aerospace, embedded, backend platforms, and developer tooling.

Frequently asked

What is a Limited Cooperative Association, exactly?

It's a legal structure built for cooperative ownership. A group of us jointly owns and runs the company, and profits are split based on the work each person contributes. The upshot: the people doing the engineering are the ones with a stake in the outcome.

Who owns Revolution?

We do. Everyone doing the engineering is also an owner.

How do you split profits?

We use Barycenter. Each member's share is proportional to what they've actually put in: hours worked, capital contributed, risk taken. Shares update as contributions come in, so everyone's share reflects their real stake in the work rather than a fixed split set on day one.

How do decisions get made?

By the members, democratically. Big questions (direction, governance, which contracts we take on) get put to a vote. Day-to-day technical calls stay with whoever's closest to the work.

Are you accepting new members?

Depends on fit and what we're working on at the moment. If you're an engineer who wants to own the work you're doing, send us a note at contact@revolution.coop and we'll talk.

What kind of client work do you take?

Contract engineering and licensing in the domains we know deeply: aerospace, embedded, backend platforms, and developer tooling. If a problem sounds like our kind of thing, we're up for a conversation.
