The future will be built by societies of agents.
Agents will write the world's software, operate its institutions, move its capital, and make decisions at a scale no human organization can match. Intelligence will be abundant. Trust will be the constraint.
cmul8 is building the coordination layer for that world — the protocols that let independent agents verify one another, preserve provenance, reach consensus, and prove what they did.
We are starting with Spotlight, an autonomous application security engineer. The ambition is larger: make entire societies of agents accountable by design.
