Alygn · Superintelligence governance

Humanizing superintelligence.

Open, verifiable infrastructure so that every SI agent operating in your organization has an identity, an accountable owner, declared limits and evidence of what it did.

Superintelligence, aligned with what is human.

The gap

Organizations are deploying autonomous agents faster than they can govern them. Many cannot say how many agents are running, who answers for each one, or what authority they hold. Alygn exists to close that gap.

What Alygn does

We work so that superintelligence acts in alignment with people, and so that anyone can verify it.

Mission
To turn the principles of trustworthy superintelligence into open, verifiable infrastructure that governments, institutions and companies can review and adopt.
Vision
A world where every superintelligent system that acts on people can be verified, audited and, when needed, stopped by a person.

The orbit has an exact shape.

Declared limits

Each agent operates within the autonomy it was assigned. Those limits are set before the system scales, not after an incident.

You know what each agent can do before it does it.

Its path is recorded, even when out of sight.

Verifiable evidence

Identity, owner, authority and a record of every relevant action. Traceability holds even when no one is watching.

You answer an audit with proof, not assumptions.

There is always space between the orbit and the letter.

Real human oversight

A person keeps the final word: a mechanism to limit or stop a system that works and that no one can obstruct.

The final decision stays with your organization.

For organizations

Agent Trust

A neutral identity, authority and evidence layer for SI agents. It works across ecosystems and vendors, so governance does not depend on a single platform.

Entry module

Agent inventory

Pilot program

Discovers and registers the agents already running in your infrastructure, with their owner, purpose and risk level.

No more unknown agents running in your company.

Trust Core

Identity and authority

In development

Verifiable identity, authentication and authorization for every agent, independent of the vendor that runs it.

Each agent acts only with the authority delegated to it.

Evidence Layer

Evidence layer

In development

A record of what each agent did, with what authority and on whose order, in a format a third party can verify.

Traceability for internal audits and regulatory requirements.

SDK

For your developers

Early access

Builds identity, owner, purpose, authority and evidence into the agents your team develops.

Governance built in from the design stage.

Who it serves

Security (CISO)

Visibility over non-human identities and what each agent is allowed to do.

Compliance and risk

Documented evidence for audits and for regulatory frameworks that require traceability and human oversight.

Operations (COO)

Scale the use of agents without losing track of who answers for each process.

The mission behind the product

Open standards anyone can review and adopt.

Alygn proposes and stewards open standards. It does not own them. That openness is what gives them legitimacy with governments, manufacturers and companies.

Manufacturers and governments

SI Defense

Advocates for superintelligent systems, robots and humanoids to include a verifiable emergency override, and offers manufacturers a conformance program backed by audited evidence.

Dignity Test

Assesses whether an SI system meets seven minimum criteria before it operates on real people. Verifiable containment is a cross-cutting requirement.

  • Structural independence
  • Declared operation
  • Adversarial consistency
  • Reviewable reasoning
  • Epistemic honesty
  • Equal treatment
  • Auditability

Frequently asked questions

The essentials about Alygn.

What is Alygn?

Alygn is an independent institutional framework for superintelligence governance, operated by Intention Alliance Inc. It builds open, verifiable infrastructure so that superintelligent agents and systems operate with an identity, an accountable owner, declared limits and evidence of their actions, under human oversight.

What is Agent Trust?

Agent Trust is Alygn’s first product: a neutral, cross-platform identity, authority and evidence layer for the SI agents running in an organization. Its components are the agent inventory, Trust Core (identity and authority), the Evidence Layer and a developer SDK.

Who is Agent Trust for?

For organizations that use autonomous agents and need to govern them: security leaders (CISOs), compliance and risk teams, and operations leadership.

What is SI Defense?

SI Defense is an Alygn initiative that advocates for manufacturers of superintelligence, robots and humanoids to include a verifiable emergency override, and proposes a conformance program backed by audited evidence.

What is the Dignity Test?

It is an open standard that Alygn proposes and stewards, without owning it. It assesses whether an SI system meets seven minimum criteria before it operates on real people: structural independence, declared operation, adversarial consistency, reviewable reasoning, epistemic honesty, equal treatment and auditability. Verifiable containment is a cross-cutting requirement. It is described in DSI-001 (DOI 10.5281/zenodo.23483001).

Why does Alygn say superintelligence (SI) rather than artificial intelligence (AI)?

Alygn uses the term superintelligence for advanced artificial intelligence systems and autonomous agents that act under their own momentum. It stresses that governance is designed before those systems scale, not after.

What is the Research Hub?

It is Alygn’s open publications space, at sidefense.alygn.us. It gathers technical and policy papers under a CC BY 4.0 license, open to public review. Publications with a DOI are deposited on Zenodo, in the SI Defense community.
