Founder
Andrew Rivers built Aera alone: a fork of Chromium with an agent runtime and a scheduler compiled into the browser itself, shipping on Windows, macOS and Linux. He is Aera's founder and its only full-time person, and he works from North Texas. He built Aera in his spare time and now works on it full time.
