AKVC Labs
AKVC Labs is part of AK Venture Corp (AKVC). It runs a verification platform for AI agents.
The platform checks claims made about AI agents. It pulls claims out of a company’s materials, scores the ones that are still uncertain, sends the ones that can be formalised to a proof kernel, and keeps an audit trail of both.
AKVC Labs runs it as part of the company’s work.
Three parts, in plain language.
A claim is paired with an evidence file. A decision model scores how well the file supports the claim. The number is a calibrated judgement about that claim, not a star rating for a company, and not a promise that the claim is true. When support is thin, the model should abstain.
Claims that can be written exactly — algorithmic guarantees, policy invariants, safety properties — are checked in Lean 4 and Mathlib, or a similar kernel. A model may draft the proof. Only the kernel can accept it. A confident paragraph is not a proof.
Inputs, model versions, scores, proof artefacts, and human sign-offs are written to an append-only log. Each entry is chained to the one before it by a hash, so a later reader can detect a changed record.
Five programmes sit on this platform. Register interest to ask for more. Longer notes are on the programmes page.
A time-bounded programme for teams building agentic products where a correctness claim matters. It includes platform access, a claim ledger, formal specification of a few core invariants, a calibrated evidence dashboard, and an audit log.
Register interest in the verification-first studioA written review of specific claims, each with an evidence file, a calibrated score, formal-check results where a claim can be formalised, analyst commentary, and stated limits. A person remains accountable for the report.
Register interest in verified-claims diligenceMaterials for a prospective deal include an evidence file and calibrated scores. Registering interest asks for information. It does not reserve a place.
Register interest in the evidence-weighted syndicateAn audit and formal-verification layer for teams building agent platforms: hash-chained logs, proof checks, and claim ledgers.
Register interest in the infrastructure tollboothFixed-scope work by AKVC Labs: formalise a claim, attempt a proof or a counterexample in Lean, and return the artefact with a written report.
