NLWeb

Natural Language Web by Microsoft

github.com/microsoft/NLWeb

NLWeb is a collection of open protocols and associated open source tools. Its main focus is establishing a foundational layer for the AI Web — much like HTML revolutionized document sharing. To make this vision reality, NLWeb provides practical implementation code—not as the definitive solution, but as proof-of-concept demonstrations showing one possible approach. We expect and encourage the community to develop diverse, innovative implementations that surpass our examples. This mirrors the web’s own evolution, from the humble ‘htdocs’ folder in NCSA’s http server to today’s massive data center infrastructures—all unified by shared protocols that enable seamless communication.
