A deterministic binary serialization language for encoding structured data into compact, verifiable payloads.

Example
terminal
Encoding

Deterministic

Same input always produces identical binary output. No key-order ambiguity, no floating-point surprises.

Wire Format

Compact Binary

Vein format is 60% smaller than JSON. Four-byte header, typed fields, zero padding.

Integrity

Verifiable

Built-in SHA-256 fingerprinting with canonical key sorting. Content integrity at every hop.
