Company
Vendor-neutral trust infrastructure for autonomous AI.
Vorion builds the governance and certification layer for AI agents: model-layer integrity, runtime enforcement, and an independent certification authority. This page is for press and investors — the thesis, the team, our status, and how to reach us.
What we’re building
Runtime governance that travels with the agent
The BASIS open standard defines the rules; the Cognigate runtime enforces them at execution time — trust tiers, capability gating, and circuit breakers that move with the agent rather than bolting on after.
Model-layer integrity patent pending
Beyond watching what an agent does, Vorion fingerprints the model’s weights to detect a swapped, fine-tuned, or poisoned model — for open-weight (white-box) models, with documented sensitivity limits. Provisional patent filed March 2026.
Vendor-neutral certification authority
AgentAnchor certifies agents against BASIS as an independent authority — a UL-analog model for agentic AI. The point is neutrality: a governance layer not owned by the cloud or model vendor it judges.
The ecosystem
One standard, four products, one practice. See how they fit together.
Team

Standard, runtime, and product.

Co-founder
Standard, runtime, and product.
A two-person founding team, deliberately small and technical. We ship an open-source core and build the standard in the open.
Status & IP
Stage. Developer preview; several components are in beta. We’d rather say that plainly than imply otherwise.
Open source. The core is Apache-2.0 and published on npm under @vorionsys; the BASIS specification is public.
Intellectual property. Our model-layer fingerprinting method is patent pending — a provisional application was filed in March 2026. No patent has been granted.
Metrics. We don’t publish usage figures we can’t stand behind. For traction detail or a data room, reach out directly.
