Secure the Black Box
of AI Intent.
When an AI agent acts, "I don't know why" is no longer a legal defense.
Eliminate "Material Weakness" in SOX 404 audits and protect against D&O liability.
2026: The Year Every AI Agent Becomes a SOX Risk.
The PCAOB and SEC have officially closed the "it's just a tool" loophole. Under updated AS 2201 directives, AI agents are classified as Non-Human Identities (NHIs) with financial authority.
If an automated process initiates a transaction, management must provide a Traceable Logic Object. The collapse of Segregation of Duties (SoD) via broad API keys is destroying market caps overnight.
Global Enterprise Fallout
Avoid multi-billion dollar losses in market cap triggered by manual remediation failures. The SEC demands "enhanced automated controls" because humans were allowed to override the system—a failure our cryptographic intent-binding makes physically impossible.
Fintech ITGC Weakness
Repeated Material Weaknesses reported as auditors refuse to sign off on ambitious "Agent" rollouts due to broad Access Privileges failing IT General Controls (ITGC).
72% of S&P 500
Now list "AI Reliability and Governance" as a material risk in their 10-K filings, triggering massive spikes in D&O liability lawsuits regarding "AI Washing" and inadequate guardrails.
How it works
Our Agentic Vault provides a secure, auditable layer for your LLM agents to interact with sensitive systems.
The 'Check-In'
The Reasoning Trace
Our Agentic Shim (SDK) intercepts high-risk API calls. It captures not just the command, but the LLM's 'Chain of Thought'. The agent must declare its intent before a single byte hits your systems.
The Automated Judge
The Policy Check
Human SOPs are translated into Policy-as-Code. A highly-restricted Validator LLM compares the agent's reasoning against your rules, acting as an unbribable, real-time compliance officer.
The A-JWT
The Permission Slip
If approved, the Vault issues a short-lived (300s) Ed25519-signed token. The agent never sees your master Stripe or AWS keys—it only receives a one-time cryptographic boarding pass.
The Hash-Chained Ledger
The Receipt
Every clearance request and outcome is mathematically linked into an immutable PostgreSQL ledger. If audited, you provide a tamper-proof record of every AI decision and why it was authorized.
The Flow
How Ledgix intercepts, validates, and records agentic autonomy.
Policy Setup
The Compliance Manager uploads an SOP (e.g., 'Refund Policy v2'). Ledgix maps it to Policy-as-Code via its fast API backend.
Intent Generation
The AI Agent decides to trigger a tool call (e.g., sending money).
Clearance Request
The Agentic Shim intercepts the call via our Python/TS SDK and sends the prompt context and reasoning to the Compliance Vault.
LLM Validation
The Validator LLM (configured via LiteLLM for GPT-4o-mini, Claude, or local Llama) performs a Reasoning Audit against the signed policy.
A-JWT Issuance
If the intent matches the human policy, the Vault minters a single-use Agentic JWT signed via modern Ed25519 cryptography.
Immutable Ledger
The outcome is written to a SQLite/PostgreSQL database via SQLModel. A hash-chaining hook ensures every record is mathematically linked, providing a tamper-proof UI dashboard for audits.
3 Lines of Code to Secure Any Tool Call
We've designed the Ledgix SDK to drop into your existing agentic workflows with zero friction. Wrap your high-risk functions, declare intent, and let the Vault handle cryptographic binding and SOX 404 ledgering.
- Drop-in Python & TypeScript SDKs
- Integrates with LangChain, LlamaIndex, & AutoGen
- < 15ms latency overhead per clearance request
