VERITAS: Verifiable Accountability For Autonomous AI Agents

My project, VERITAS, makes AI prove what it did on the Bitcoin mainnet. It does this by producing tamper-evident, independently verifiable receipts for AI inferences and agent actions that become anchored to Bitcoin. In doing so, the record can't be quietly rewritten after the fact. Veritas is already built publicly with 10 MIT-license repositories and has multiple real Bitcoin mainnet anchors.

I want to take VERITAS's agent-accountability layer from working prototype to a tool that real AI operators and outside auditors use to check what an autonomous agent actually did, without having to trust the operator, making this upcoming generation of implemented AI tools trustworthy to the public.

Here's Where Things Stand Now: VERITAS can have your agent sign its action(s) on the Bitcoin Mainnet locally through the use of cryptography. Every local record that's attested can be proven genuine since VERITAS contains a live verifier repository.

What Results Will Yield Exactly From Payment? I need capital to handle two things that'll be very beneficial to both VERITAS, as a project, and the autonomous AI space, which will be the necessary essentials that's going to help with publishing on the public relay pipeline via Bitcoin anchoring for the creation of my third-party auditing tool to take an agent's very own public key as input, which retrieves the records from the agent once they're published under it. This is a concrete follow-the-money method that'll allow agents to pull entire histories with verified receipts of actions or the lack thereof.

How Can We Tell What Worked Or Didn't Work? The whole point of VERITAS is maintaining verification of an agent's record history so if I were to check for 100 anchored records on the mainnet chain but the operator only manages to reveal 90 records from the public relay to me with flagged dates, the mismatch of records is immediately noticeable in this situation.

I would hope to not only get the necessary funds for the minimal build but to get VERITAS to its fullest capacity in later stages of the project, which also include installing a live operator to help maintain records.
