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.
Alygn · Superintelligence governance
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
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.
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.
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
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.
Reference architecture: AT-ARCH-001 · DOI 10.5281/zenodo.23483886 ↗
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.
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.
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.
Builds identity, owner, purpose, authority and evidence into the agents your team develops.
Governance built in from the design stage.
Who it serves
Visibility over non-human identities and what each agent is allowed to do.
Documented evidence for audits and for regulatory frameworks that require traceability and human oversight.
Scale the use of agents without losing track of who answers for each process.
The mission behind the product
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
Advocates for superintelligent systems, robots and humanoids to include a verifiable emergency override, and offers manufacturers a conformance program backed by audited evidence.

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

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