Hey Product Hunt! 👋
We watched AI agents waste 76% of their tokens on boilerplate in Python/TypeScript. So we built KARN — a language designed specifically for agents.
Key features:
→ 76% fewer tokens than Python
→ Compiles to C, JS, HTML, Python from one source
→ No exceptions — deterministic error handling
→ Full ecosystem access (pip, npm, cargo, system libs)
91 tests passing. Open source under the MIT License.
Try it: pip install karn-lang

Built by the team at Eulogik & Evolucent AI. Thanks to everyone who helped make this happen!
