A Meaning Representation System for the Cloud and Beyond
The Essence Platform is a fresh look at how humans instruct machines. The focus of the innovative technologies involved is to enable the world to shift from a code-driven paradigm to an era of intent-driven computing platform that accommodates all the ways that humans express intent. Speak, type, gesture, and many other methods to describe real or imaginary worlds. They are all treated as input signals that Essence processes and maps to Meaning Coordinates, so that you can directly bypass programming languages to instruct machines to do what you want them to do. Thus, the term WantWare is used to describe a new process, systems, and methods.
WantWare is not about making smarter machines. It’s about enabling people to do better.
Empowering 100% of Humanity
Why is Bypassing Programming Languages Important?
Programming languages are limited tools that are designed to address the problem of humans instructing machines that can only process binary code represented by ones and zeros. The exception is quantum computers, which we will address in a future project.
Human languages are fundamental to how people, cultures, and societies represent the meaning of all things and behaviors. That is historically not the purpose of programming languages, which is evidenced by the small percentage of humanity that understand programming languages.
However, all functioning humans (possessing a way of signaling intent, including non-verbal methods) can express meaning. Meaning Coordinates are a way to map expressed meaning to machine behaviors, without programming languages. WantWare is designed to dynamically map all ways of signaling intent to Meaning Coordinates so that machine instructions can be generated, in real-time.

How Does WantWare Change Technology Development?
The ability to reduce the amount of code made from programming languages (either by coders or AI), is a new opportunity to return to the fundamentals of computing. This is the result of first principles thinking by MindAptiv’s Chief Science Officer/Co-founder, John J. Kolb V. It involved breaking down assumptions around instructing machines.
Here’s a sample from a video game that was created with WantWare. The output:
- Binary code generated by converting Meaning Coordinates
- Hexadecimal code equivalents of Meaning Coordinates
- Meaning Coordinates matching expressed wants
- Matched Meaning Coordinates and Hexadecimal Code

Value Propositions Beyond Low-code Platforms
Low-code Application Platforms (LCAPs) are mostly either products that allow access to code written by programmers or AI/ML trained to mimic what coders do. WantWare enables solutions, such as the many products in our own roadmap, to be developed rapidly and to require far less maintenance than is required by the current software development process. The functionality needed to create an endless number of integrated and adaptive products already exists within the abilities of the Essence Platform.
