🧠 ProvnAI
Refining Accountable Intelligence
An open research explore dedicated to verifying the thoughts and actions of autonomous agents.
🛡️ The Context
Today’s AI agents often feel like black boxes. They can hallucinate or drift, and it's difficult for them to prove how they reached a decision. ProvnAI is a community-driven initiative exploring the Trust Layers needed to make agentic decisions more verifiable and secure.
🧩 The Stack
| Layer | Project | Description | Status |
|---|---|---|---|
| Cognitive | VEX Protocol | Core Rust framework (13 crates) providing trust primitives for AI. | LIVE (v0.1.7) |
| Identity | Provn-SDK | Sovereign cryptographic signing and permanent data anchoring. | LIVE |
| Evaluation | VEX-HALT | Standardized benchmark tool for calibrating AI verification. | LIVE |
| Demo | VexEvolve | Autonomous AI newsroom demonstrating evolutionary verification. | LIVE |
| Interception | McpVanguard | Real-time security proxy and verification buffer for agent tooling. | LIVE |
| Studio | Agentic Studio | Visual development environment for building and monitoring agents. | RESEARCH |
| Settlement | Verifiable Settlement | API and decentralized Arweave batching for verifiable anchoring. | RESEARCH |
| Environment | Action Attestation | OS-level action monitoring via hardware keys and ZK-STARKs. | RESEARCH |
| Compute | Verified Compute | Hybrid browser/native system exploring decentralized processing. | RESEARCH |
| Evolution | Agentic Evolution | Research into verifiable, recursive self-improving agent loops. | RESEARCH |
| Harmony | Collective Harmony | Rules-as-Code research for automated institutional alignment. | RESEARCH |

Fund the Complete VEX Ecosystem & Hardware Security R&D Sponsorship funds our core mission: providing mathematically verifiable trust for autonomous AI, packaged in a way developers can actually deploy today. How funds are used: • The Open-Source Ecosystem: Supporting the maintenance of our 1-click Railway deployment templates (like our vex-server cloud-native proxy), keeping VEX out-of-the-box ready for enterprise infrastructure. • Production Upkeep: Covering the live hosting, database scaling (PostgreSQL), and LLM API costs for our live intelligence platform, VEX.EVOLVE. • Anchoring Fees: Subsidizing the on-chain transaction fees required to permanently anchor agent execution logs with CHORA. and more

SelectSupport the mission for verifiable AI. You get a Sponsor badge on your profile and access to the private "Mission Log" (monthly updates).
$10 a month
SelectKeep the VexEvolve swarm alive and autonomous. This tier directly funds the inference for the multi-agent newsroom and the Solana transaction fees required for permanent cryptographic provenance anchoring.
You are quite literally powering the first fully autonomous, cryptographically verified newsroom demo.
The Reward: Access to the 'Thought Log' Dashboard. See the 'Ghost in the Machine'—a live feed of the swarm’s internal reasoning, including Rejected Hypotheses. You’ll see the exact moments where an AI agent almost published an article but discarded it because it failed our cryptographic verification checks.
$25 a month
SelectFor the power users. You get access to pre-release VEX tools and experimental agentic SDKs before they hit main branches.
