Practical answers about what Telamin does, what you can use today and how to evaluate it.
Why Telamin?
What is Telamin, and how is it different from an AI coding assistant?
Telamin connects AI-assisted application design, compiled execution and evidence-based investigation. Your assistant helps assemble reusable components and application logic. Fluxtion generates the coordination between them as specialised software your team can review and test.
Once built, the application runs without an LLM coordinating each event. The Analyser helps your team investigate its recorded behaviour.
AI helps build it. Compiled code executes it. Evidence helps you understand it.
Link to this answerWhy not let an AI agent orchestrate the business process directly?
AI is useful for interpretation, exploration and probabilistic reasoning. Repeatedly asking a model to coordinate a predictable process also adds inference cost, latency and variability.
Fluxtion compiles that repeatable coordination into software. Routine events use your computing infrastructure without another authoring-model request. Model calls remain an option where the application actually needs them.
Scale the workflow, not the model bill.
Link to this answerCan the application still use LLMs or other AI models?
Yes. A component can call an LLM, machine-learning model or external decision service. Compiled logic can validate the response, apply limits and route the result.
The model output remains probabilistic. Investigation or replay needs the relevant inputs and outputs to be captured. Probabilistic reasoning can participate in a system with deterministic coordination.
Link to this answerHow fast is Fluxtion, and why does that matter?
A published ten-node Java fixture measured generated dispatch at 8.44 ns/event, versus 7.12 ns/event for hand-written dispatch with the same coordination semantics: a difference of 1.32 ns. It observed zero steady-state per-event allocation in that fixture.
This measures dispatch, not end-to-end application latency. Components, integrations, audit settings and hardware affect real results. Low coordination overhead leaves more of your computing budget for useful application work.
Benchmark, methodology and limitations
Link to this answerBuilding and deployment
What products does Telamin provide?
Fluxtion generates specialised event processors. Mongoose optionally hosts them and connects feeds, services and outputs. The Fluxtion Audit Log Analyser investigates recorded behaviour and exports evidence bundles.
Hosted generation delivers Fluxtion generation as a managed service. These are connected parts of one workflow: compile, operate and investigate.
Link to this answerCan we combine existing components from different vendors?
Yes. Supported Java components, internal business logic and new components can participate in the same application. Fluxtion derives their coordination from their declared relationships and integration contracts.
Reuse engineering you already trust, and author the behaviour that is specific to your business. Some libraries need adapters or additional integration work. Configured audit records help show how the integrated components participated in an event.
Link to this answerDoes deterministic execution guarantee correctness?
No. A wrong business rule can consistently produce a wrong answer. Fluxtion makes coordination explicit: events and conditions activate paths through compiled code.
Reproduction requires the same application version, starting state, event order and relevant external inputs. Clock reads, randomness, live services and concurrent state must be controlled or captured. Predictable coordination makes behaviour easier to test and investigate; your requirements and rules still need validation.

Link to this answerWhich languages and deployment environments are supported?
Java is the primary authoring language and generated-source target. Processors can run on the JVM or be packaged as GraalVM native executables. The Playground runs Java in the browser using CheerpJ.
A separate TeaVM/WASM-GC path has a developer-run build and browser demonstration; hosted builds and broader deployment support remain in development. C++ generation is in pilot preview, without equivalent audit logging and Analyser support.
Deployment capabilities and status
Link to this answerDoes the production application depend on Telamin’s cloud?
Normal event processing needs no hosted compiler connection once a processor has been generated ahead of time and built. Embed it in your Java application or host it with Mongoose, in your own environment.
Hosted generation receives a graph model and returns generated source during the build process. New generation requests and interpreted development modes are separate from running an already-built application.
Link to this answerHow do we protect proprietary code and intellectual property?
Hosted generation does not require your whole source repository. It does receive a structured graph model, including component identities, relationships and configured field values. Those values are unredacted within the HTTPS request and may be commercially sensitive.
Supply secrets at runtime rather than embedding them in the generation model. Your built application runs in your environment. Private generation is in development; review the current data flows, retention and licensing arrangements before adoption.
Confidentiality and data flows
Link to this answerEvidence and investigation
What gets recorded, and what can it establish?
Fluxtion can generate audit instrumentation alongside execution code. Depending on configuration, records capture triggering events, component activity and selected values. The Analyser relates these facts to the execution graph and relevant source.
The evidence establishes what was captured. Its strength depends on coverage and completeness; it does not automatically establish every external effect or prove the requirements were correct.
Link to this answerWhat is an evidence bundle, and who creates it?
An evidence bundle is a portable investigation, created by the Analyser under the direction of a person and their LLM. They choose what to investigate, inspect the recorded facts and save the steps that explain the result.
The Analyser packages selected runtime records, the application graph and saved investigation material into a bundle another person can reopen. It is a saved snapshot of the captured context, so producers and recipients can examine the same material. The LLM helps explain the evidence; it does not replace the underlying records.
Use the bundle to continue an investigation, an HTML reel to follow the saved walkthrough in a browser, or a PDF to share a readable report. Include the evidence needed by the recipient, and review it for sensitive information before sharing.
Who creates a bundle, and who can use it?
Link to this answerCan we reproduce a problem and test a proposed fix?
Yes, with the necessary inputs, state and compatible application build. A developer and their connected assistant can follow recorded dependencies and values, propose a targeted change, obtain human approval and test the corrected application.
The Analyser exports investigations as .fexp bundles. It does not execute the processor: replay inputs run separately against the appropriate build. Compare the resulting records and share the evidence for the correction.
Is Telamin relevant to regulated applications and the EU AI Act?
Controlled execution, configurable logging, investigation and human review can support an organisation’s evidence needs. Whether the EU AI Act applies depends on the system and its intended use.
The European Commission’s current guidance describes documentation, logging, oversight and risk-management obligations for applicable high-risk systems. It lists 2 December 2027 for Annex III high-risk uses and 2 August 2028 for high-risk systems embedded in Annex I regulated products.
Telamin provides technical capabilities; it does not certify safety or automatically make an application compliant. Check the official guidance for your use case and the current timetable.
See how evidence bundles support investigation and human review, within their stated capture limits.

Link to this answerProduction proof and commercial use
Is Fluxtion already used in production?
Yes. Fluxtion has paid production use in electronic market making, across pricing, hedging, order processing, risk management and credit control.
This is a demanding real-world deployment. Telamin is now broadening adoption through focused pilots and design-partner engagements.
Production background and technical evidence
Link to this answerIs the technology patented?
Fluxtion’s technology has a granted US patent, US 11,074,079 B2, relating to generated event-handling instructions. The compiler derives execution coordination from application structure.
The patent is part of Telamin’s intellectual property; it does not imply protection for every current or proposed product feature.
Link to this answerWhat is free, and what do paid credits cost?
Pre-generated Playground examples run without an account. The published introductory account allowance is 250 hosted generations and 500 interpreted runs, with a 20-node graph limit and other Free-plan limits. This is a one-time early-access allowance and may change.
Self-service purchase of additional credits is not yet open; there is no published standard paid-credit rate. Team access, higher allowances, production licensing and support are agreed commercially during the pilot stage.
Current allowances and commercial options
Link to this answerWhat do we license, and what happens when an agreement ends?
Generator access, runtime software, generated code, commercial components, redistribution and support have distinct rights.
An ahead-of-time-built processor does not technically switch off when generation entitlement ends: it does not call the compiler per event. The contractual right to keep using or distributing it is a separate matter, agreed in your licence.
Link to this answerWhat is a funded pilot, and who pays?
A funded pilot is a paid customer engagement to evaluate a specific technical and commercial benefit. We agree the workflow, scope, cost, integration requirements and measurable acceptance criteria before starting.
Telamin can build alongside your engineers or teach your team to author the application. Deliverables can include a working implementation, tests, measurements and investigation evidence. At the end, assess the results and decide whether to adopt, extend or stop.
