A policy gate your AI agent must ask before it spends

What it does

Charter is a policy gate and tamper-evident ledger for AI agents. Every action is checked against a written authority before it runs — allowed, blocked, or paused for a named human — and every verdict is committed to a chain nobody can edit. Maps to SOC 2, the EU AI Act and RBI controls.

Every action is checked against your written authority before it executes. Actions are allowed automatically, blocked, or paused for human approval. Every decision is written to an immutable ledger. Not even Charter can edit it. The agent asks before it acts. Small refund: allowed. Large one: frozen until finance signs. Something its owner forbade: blocked, and the money is never touched. Every verdict is hashed into a chain and signed. Change one old entry and every entry after it stops matching. The database role Charter runs as cannot delete or update rows. A named person grants each agent a spending limit, an expiry, the tools it may use and the operations it may never perform. A grant…from usecharter.xyz

  • Hey HN, We recently built Clipto. It’s a tool that lets you search over terabytes of video, audio, and images on your computer, without relying on the cloud. Motivation: we probably all had this similar experience, we know a moment exists in a video or audio, but finding it takes hours scrubbing the timeline. You can send all the media to process in the cloud, but it’s slow, expensive and raises privacy concerns. So we decided to build our own on-device media search engine. How it works (high level): 1. We ingest video, audio, image; normalize formats via ffmpeg; run content analysis to…

  • Hello HN! I found that picking out plausible but diverse skin tones for my digital art and game development projects was kind of difficult, and I got curious about if there was a way to define a color space that made it easy. I've built a color picker and procedural generation algorithm based on the space as well as a bunch of other fun js features and demos throughout the page that use the equations. If you find it interesting, I have lots of explanations of how I built it and what properties the space has. The methodology might be a bit shaky, but hopefully the result is as helpful for…
