Situational awareness,
democratised.
Open data, the reproducible protocols that make it, and a native app that renders it on your own machine — no server, no account. Start with Brightfield: one command installs it.
curl -fsSL https://install.meridian.online/brightfield | bashbrew install meridian-online/tap/brightfieldWorks today: a native macOS app that opens on a gallery of starts — bundled examples plus the EDGAR ↔ GLEIF crosswalk graph — every one drawing with the network switched off. No telemetry, no update check.
Not yet: Linux and Windows builds, and pointing it at your own sources. That work is still ahead, in the open.

Datasets, Protocols, Panels
Everything Meridian publishes is one of three things — and Brightfield is the lens that opens onto all of them.
The point is the join. Public data is free; what rots is the link between one register of the world and the next. Meridian maintains the crosswalk so you don't rebuild it.
Live now: the EDGAR ↔ GLEIF crosswalk
207k maintained edges resolving SEC filers to their GLEIF Legal Entity Identifier — every row carrying its evidence tier and as-of date, and the whole thing the output of a reproducible protocol → dataset run you can inspect and rerun.
Where this is going
Two paid offers are taking shape behind the free commons. Both open through the same door.
Managed datasets
The crosswalk kept correct for you — resolved, refreshed as the sources move, delivered as a feed you can attach and query.
Hosted protocols
A pipeline worth keeping honest, run on a schedule on our infrastructure — the output lands as an always-current dataset.
