Stable State is a modern safety-critical software solution for aerospace, automotive, defense, and federal agencies.
We provide a language derived from Rust, but with significantly reduced surface area, making it easier to lean and more deterministic. It offers the same safety features as Rust, but with stronger compile-time guarantees with native formal verification, dependent types, structured concurrency and more.
Our AI-agent engine runs adjacent to the compiler and can provide interactive guidance throughout development and compliance lifecycle. Helping to analyze errors, reason about proofs, and optimize performance paths.
The outcome is accelerated compliance for DO-178C, ISO 26262, IEC 61508, etc. and federal memory safety directives—reducing certification timelines by 50% and costs by up to 60%.
Government agencies face mounting pressure to eliminate memory safety vulnerabilities, which account for 70% of critical security flaws according to CISA and the DoD National Security Strategy. Stable State addresses this mandate at the source: our memory-safe Aela language eliminates entire classes of defects—buffer overflows, use-after-free errors, and data races—before code reaches production. Unlike post-hoc static analysis tools that identify bugs in existing code, our compiler prevents unsafe code from compiling, providing mathematical guarantees of correctness through built-in formal verification.
For agencies pursuing DO-178C DAL A certification for flight-critical avionics, IEC 61508 SIL 3/4 for critical infrastructure, or ISO 26262 ASIL D for autonomous vehicle systems, Stable State's automated artifact generation creates certification documentation during compilation—requirements traceability matrices, test evidence documents, and compliance reports—reducing manual documentation effort by 60-70% and accelerating certification timelines from 12-24 months to 6-12 months.
Carahsoft and Stable State have partnered to bring modern, safety critical software to the federal marketplace. As Stable State's Master Value Added Reseller and Aggregator in the US Public Sector, Carahsoft enables government agencies to modernize safety-critical embedded software development while meeting CISA memory safety mandates, DoD cybersecurity requirements, and stringent certification standards—delivering both mission assurance and regulatory compliance through proven compiler technology.
