Waveframe Labs builds deterministic enforcement and validation infrastructure for governed AI workflows.
We focus on the execution boundary --- the point where system state changes under regulatory, operational, or institutional risk.
Governance is only meaningful if that boundary is structurally enforced.

Waveframe Labs separates governance, method, enforcement, and validation into distinct layers:
Governance --- ARI / NTS
Defines institutional authority boundaries, policy contracts, and AI
disclosure requirements.
Method --- AWO
Defines structured workflow topology, role separation, manifests, and
reproducibility guarantees.
Enforcement --- CRI-CORE
Deterministic transition-boundary enforcement engine.
Validates that state changes satisfy declared contracts before they
commit.
Validation --- Stamp
Schema-agnostic artifact and metadata validator.
Emits deterministic diagnostics and machine-readable outputs for
downstream enforcement.
Waveframe Labs builds infrastructure for:
- Atomic, auditable state transitions
- Explicit authority modeling
- Deterministic enforcement of declared contracts
- Cryptographic artifact integrity
- Machine-verifiable provenance
We do not collapse policy, authority, and execution into a single layer.
Policy sits above.
Execution sits below.
The enforcement kernel asks one question:
"Can this transition commit safely?"
