The evidence layer
for every AI agent decision.
Invistiq receives signed events from AI agent runtimes, verifies each signature on ingest, chains the events into a per-organization Merkle log, and persists them to write-once storage. When a regulator asks, the binder exports in under thirty seconds, mapped to whichever framework applies.

Tamper-evident at write time
Ed25519 signatures. Merkle log. AWS S3 Object Lock.
HIPAA BAA signed
Healthcare AI deployments covered on day one.
Independent third-party verification
Regulators verify against your public key. No vendor trust required.
Four principles. No exceptions.
These are the decisions that shaped every feature we built and every feature we decided not to build.
01
The trail must be tamper-evident, not trust-evident.
A regulator does not accept your word that the log was not edited. They accept a cryptographic chain that can be verified against your published public key. Every event Invistiq captures is signed with Ed25519 at write time and chained into a per-organization Merkle log. The proof is structural, not procedural.
02
The agent vendor cannot grade itself.
Sierra cannot credibly audit Sierra. Intercom Fin cannot certify Intercom Fin. Native observability fails the same conflict-of-interest test that exists in financial auditing. Invistiq is the independent third-party layer that receives events from the agent runtime, verifies them, and produces the evidence the regulator wants.
03
Compliance is the by-product, not the workflow.
An AI engineer should not have to learn the EU AI Act to ship a feature. Install the SDK in four lines, capture the events you already emit, and let Invistiq translate them into Article 12, Colorado AI Act, NIST AI RMF, ISO 42001, HIPAA, and FINRA 17a-4 evidence on demand. One captured stream, every framework downstream.
04
Retention is a regulatory floor, not a product feature.
EU AI Act Article 19 requires six months minimum. Article 18 requires ten years for technical documentation. HIPAA requires six years. FINRA Rule 17a-4 requires three to six. We persist signed events to AWS S3 Object Lock so the retention floor is enforced by storage, not policy. The deletion request returns nothing the lawyer cannot defend.
The independent verifier the agent vendor cannot be.
Each of these tools solves a real problem. None of them is the cryptographic evidence layer the regulator wants from a third party.
vs. LangSmith
LangSmith is the developer feature shop for LangChain applications. Excellent for prompt engineering iteration and trace debugging. Different buyer. Invistiq is for the head of AI compliance who needs to hand a regulator a signed evidence pack, not for the engineer iterating on a prompt.
vs. Datadog LLM Observability
Datadog ships LLM observability as a module inside the existing $100K+ ARR contract. Strong for organizations already on Datadog. Invistiq is the dedicated compliance layer for organizations whose AI deployment now needs a signed, regulator-verifiable trail that infra-grade observability does not produce.
vs. Vanta and Drata
Vanta and Drata automate SOC 2, ISO 27001, and now ISO 42001. They monitor controls across your stack. Invistiq sits inside the agent runtime and produces the per-event evidence those controls need to point at. Different layer of the stack. We expect to partner, not compete.
vs. HoneyHive
HoneyHive is the closest direct competitor in the agent-observability space. Sales-led, enterprise-only, engineer-first UX. Invistiq is compliance-first by design and starts free for the AI engineer who installs the SDK before the compliance team is even involved.
Solo-founded. No investors. Accountable to users.
Invistiq was designed and built by one person who watched the agent-vendor ecosystem ship faster than the regulatory ecosystem could absorb and concluded the missing piece was a neutral evidence layer.
No outside investors means no pressure to ship features that the next quarterly board update demands instead of the features the head of AI compliance actually needs. The business model is simple: charge a fair monthly fee, earn the renewal.
The independence is structural, not aspirational. We deliberately do not sell an AI agent runtime. We do not run customer prompts through a foundation model on our infrastructure. The conflict of interest that disqualifies agent vendors from auditing themselves is the conflict we cannot create by construction.
