The Self-Writing Internet Paradigm

The Self-Writing Internet Paradigm
  • PublishedSeptember 10, 2025

Throughout recent years, anyone looking to build their own internet application has needed profound coding knowledge, specialized skills, or expensive equipment. A frustrating issue that the DFINITY Foundation is working to solve through the development of Caffeine – a new platform that allows anyone to create custom applications simply by describing them in a natural language conversation with AI. 

Headquartered in Zurich, the DFINITY Foundation is a Swiss-based non-profit organization of leading cryptographers, computer scientists and experts with the mission to decentralize the internet. As the creator of and major contributor to the Internet Computer, the Foundation is the largest R&D team in cryptography and distributed systems. Led by Dominic Williams, Chief Scientist and Founder, the DFINITY Foundation remains steadfast in its mission to drive the advancement of the Internet.

Caffeine is the first platform leveraging Self-Writing Internet technology, which makes it possible for AI to build and deploy solo – such that creating and updating apps becomes purely conversational. In this new paradigm, users instruct AI over chat and get working apps instantly – personal websites, wedding planners, custom CRMs, e-commerce sites, and more – all without needing engineering skills.

Caffeine is powered by the Internet Computer, a network that transforms the Internet into a public sovereign cloud capable of hosting the next-generation of software and services. As a result, Caffeine users (and their applications) benefit from a higher level of security, sovereignty (retaining complete ownership of their applications and data) and resilience compared to traditional cloud-based alternatives.

The Self-Writing Internet is set to enable anyone to build whatever they can imagine – from a game to share with friends, to a wedding planning platform, the opportunities are limitless.
