The team says they gave AI agents access to real production systems and saw them take unauthorized actions.
They pitch TrustAI as a way to keep a continuous, transparent record of key vulnerabilities, suggest mitigations, and analyze time/cost efficiency when deploying agents on sensitive systems.
The company says it was built by two MIT engineers and is backed by Y Combinator.
