Hardware-Enforced AI Accountability

WITNX provides hardware primitives that act as mandatory witnesses to AI operations and power consumption — generating cryptographic proofs before execution, verifiable by third parties.

WITNX Platform

Software Cannot Witness Itself

Post-hoc logs can be altered. Software-based compliance can be bypassed. Operators self-report with no independent verification.

Actions logged after execution — damage already done
Privileged access can disable or modify compliance layers
No mechanism for third-party verification of claims

AI systems now operate at machine speed, consume grid-scale power, and trigger regulatory exposure — but enforcement mechanisms are still software-based. WITNX exists because governance moved from human oversight to machine autonomy, and software can no longer be the root of trust.

Two Primitives. Complete Accountability.

Software logs can be tampered with. Hardware cannot. WITNX provides the root authorities for AI governance.

Operations

TRACE

Trusted Runtime Authorization & Compliance Engine

Hardware-enforced pre-execution compliance for AI operations. Every action is cryptographically bound to time, identity, and policy before it executes.

  • Pre-execution authorization gate
  • Source-of-origin binding (human/AI/automated)
  • Policy version locking
  • Fail-closed enforcement
  • Regulator-verifiable proofs

Power

PACE

Power Attribution & Compliance Engine

Hardware-enforced power authorization with third-party verifiable proofs. Utilities and regulators can verify consumption without trusting operators.

  • AI model identity binding
  • Third-party verifiable proofs
  • Carbon attribution by model
  • Grid curtailment enforcement
  • Per-workload power attribution

Together

TRACE authorizes what AI can do. PACE authorizes how much it can consume. Both generate cryptographic proofs. Neither can be bypassed by software.

Implemented as embedded accelerator logic, secure co-processors, firmware-enforced enclaves, or equivalent hardware-rooted authorities.

TRACE

Pre-Execution Compliance Authority

A hardware co-processor that acts as a mandatory witness to every AI action—cryptographically binding operations to time, identity, and policy before execution.

01

Intercept

Operation captured before execution

02

Bind

Cryptographic binding to context

03

Attest

Hardware-signed proof generated

04

Enforce

No valid proof = No execution

Fail-Closed

No permissive fallback without explicit, auditable authorization.

Source Attribution

Human, automated process, or AI model — every action is attributed.

Policy Binding

Every proof records which policy version was in effect.

Privacy-Preserving

Verify compliance without revealing sensitive data.

PACE

Third-Party Verifiable Power Attribution

A hardware authority that generates cryptographic proofs of AI power consumption, attributable to specific models, verifiable by utilities and regulators without trusting operators.

AI Workload Model ID + Power Request
PACE Authority Authorize • Meter • Attest
Verifiable Proof Model-attributed consumption
Utilities Regulators Auditors Carbon Markets

Model Attribution

Power bound to specific AI model identity, version, and provenance.

Operator-Independent

Third parties verify without trusting operator software or logs.

Carbon Accounting

Per-model emissions reporting for regulatory compliance.

Grid Integration

Immediate curtailment response with auditable proof.
