AI teams are building fast, but the EU AI Act deadline is looming. The problem? You can’t use cloud-reliant compliance tools to audit your system if your security policies bar you from leaking proprietary source code or model configurations outside your firewall.

Today, we’re opening up early alpha testing for ACE (AetherGuard Compliance Engine) — a 100% offline, local-first static analysis engine that automates mandatory Annex IV compliance documentation straight from your code repository.

Instead of manual legal spreadsheets or risky cloud APIs, ACE bridges the technical-legal gap directly inside your local development environment:

  • Deep Code Grounding: Uses local Tree-sitter AST parsers to map your Python or TypeScript code topologies entirely offline.
  • Zero Hallucinations: Features a synchronous Trace-or-Flag verifier that actively strips model fabrications and injects clear [EVIDENCE REQUIRED] tasks.
  • Native Dev Workflows: Compiles into a git-diffable manifest.json and runs as a local FastMCP server right inside your IDE (Cursor/VS Code) or as a CI/CD pre-commit gate.

We’re looking for boutique AI automation agencies, enterprise engineering leads, and fast-shipping B2B scaleups to jump into our closed tester cohort, run local scans, and help us break things before our public debut later this year.

Want to run a zero-cloud-leak compliance scan on your local workspace?
