At Weilliptic, we didn’t just pick Rust for one part of our stack — we bet the entire platform on it. WeilChain is an operating system for autonomous AI, running across clouds, and every critical layer of it is written in Rust. In this talk, I’ll walk through six distinct systems we built in Rust: the WIDL compiler (our interface definition language toolchain), the Icarus chatbot LLM loop running as a Rust-WASM module inside the browser, a Vector DB with generic storage layer capable of running over WASM linear memory hence supporting in-browser embeddings search, the Cerebrum agentic orchestration framework, the Weil SDK that lets developers write applets for WeilChain which can be easily converted to MCP servers, and WeilChain’s platform core itself. These aren’t toy projects — they’re production systems serving real AI agents, cryptographic audit trails, and multi-cloud workloads.
What makes this talk unique is the sheer breadth: a compiler, a browser-native LLM loop, an embeddable database, an agentic framework, a developer SDK, and a blockchain runtime — all in Rust. Each of these domains has different constraints: compile-time correctness for the compiler, binary size and sandboxing for WASM targets, performance and memory layout for the vector DB, ergonomic API design for the SDK. Rust not only held up across all of them — it actively guided better design through its type system. I’ll share what worked, what surprised us, where Rust’s expressiveness shone brightest, and where we had to fight the borrow checker to get things done.
This session will be most beneficial for:
Bhavya Bhatt is an Founding Software Engineer at Weilliptic Inc., the company building WeilChain — the operating system for autonomous AI. Weilliptic was co-founded by Avinash Lakshman, the inventor of Apache Cassandra and co-inventor of Amazon Dynamo, and the platform reflects three decades of distributed systems thinking applied to the agentic era. Bhavya has been instrumental in building Weilliptic’s Rust-based stack, spanning compiler tooling, WASM runtimes, vector databases, agentic SDKs, and the WeilChain platform core. He is passionate about how Rust’s type system enables building correct, performant, and expressive software across domains that rarely coexist in a single codebase.
