Deliver AI agents to your clients as a consultancy or integrator, backed by our technology, training, and support.
CloudflareOur approach
Compounding intelligence your company owns.
Most software loses value from the day it ships. Our systems run in real operations and turn every task into knowledge your organization keeps, so they are worth more next year than they are today.

Trusted by teams
TapestryTapestryTapestryTapestryThey quickly understood our goals, proposed pragmatic solutions, and moved implementation forward with minimal friction. Their responsiveness and domain expertise have improved both our team’s efficiency and the impact of our campaigns.
We run our entire production agent fleet on Trinity - multi-user, scheduled, and audited, all inside our own perimeter. It just runs.
Receipts
Every step, on the record.
Adaptive improvement inside strict governance. Follow any piece of work from the first action to the knowledge it leaves behind, and see what changed, why, and who signed off.
An agent takes a step.
Every action is written to an append-only audit log. Turn on compliance mode to add a tamper-evident hash chain.
The change is committed.
Every agent’s state lives in git: readable, comparable, and reversible.
Your people decide.
Human gates sit in front of the decisions you choose. Your teams approve, answer, or steer.
Your organization keeps it.
The work becomes knowledge your company keeps, and any change can be rolled back.

Intelligence and infrastructure,
released as open source.
Trinity, the runtime, and Cornelius, the cognitive core, ship as one open-source project - free for everyone. Enterprise is the same foundation, plus the governance an organization needs to run it at scale.

What's changing in AI - and what it actually means in production.
What does Ability AI actually do?
We are the applied AI lab behind AI-native companies. We build Trinity, our operating system, and Cornelius, our cognitive architecture, and release both as open source, so the intelligence your company builds compounds and stays yours.
You can run the foundation yourself, have us build and run your agents on it, or deliver it to your own clients as a partner.
What are Trinity and Cornelius?
Trinity is the open-source operating system for AI-native companies: your agents and workflows run on it with permissions, state, and receipts - governed, audited, scheduled, multi-user, and recoverable, inside your own perimeter.
Cornelius is the cognitive architecture: it turns operational experience into knowledge the company keeps and builds on - adaptive improvement inside strict governance.
Is it really open source? What's the catch?
The whole platform is Apache 2.0 - self-host it, inspect it, extend it, free forever. There is no gated core.
Enterprise is the same foundation plus the governance an organization needs: org management, single sign-on (OIDC and SAML) with 2FA and SCIM provisioning, advanced RBAC, compliance tooling (an audit dashboard and SIEM export), managed data retention, and offline license management.
Do we own the platform, or are we renting it?
You own it. Sovereign means your data, your logic, your agents, on infrastructure you control - not rented SaaS.
No vendor lock-in - self-host on your own hardware, or have us run it for you and take it in-house whenever you choose.
Can we run it ourselves, or does Ability run it?
Both. Self-host the open-source platform inside your own infrastructure, or have us build your agents, run them in production, and maintain them as your business changes.
Because you own the platform either way, switching from managed to in-house is a decision, not a migration.
How is this different from agents that are built once?
Conventional agents are built once and decay. Our systems turn operational experience into knowledge the company keeps.
Cornelius compounds knowledge and ships its own improvements, with receipts - under your control, behind human gates, never on its own.
What happens if an agent makes a mistake?
Every agent follows business rules you approve before deployment, with deterministic guardrails that keep it on your playbook.
All actions are logged with full chain-of-thought transparency - you can see exactly why a decision was made, and review, override, or adjust any action.
How fast do we see value?
Weeks, not quarters. We start with one focused process, put the agent that runs it into production, and grow from there.
Across our production deployments we have documented 70-95% time savings on the work we automate - and outcomes like EV Energy's first response time dropping from a business day to seven minutes.
