Centauro · AI engineering and security

Reliable AI agents.
Evidence for consequential decisions.

We build and assess AI agents and their execution layer—the harness that enforces limits, human approvals and inspectable evidence.

For teams answering to customers, auditors and risk committees.

Trust is what makes
autonomy possible.

When an agent handles money, sensitive data or important decisions, trust becomes a condition for adoption and scale.

CTO

Can we release it? What happens when it fails?

CISO

What can it access or change? Can we investigate misuse?

CFO / business

What exposure are we accepting? Who approves the action?

From an agent's action
to an inspectable decision.

See which information it used, which tools it called, which controls applied and where a person must decide.

Illustrative · synthetic dataExpected behavior only. No live system, executed tests or assurance conclusion.

  1. Proposed action

    Start with what the agent wants to do.

    Invoice INV-104 · PO-88 · MXN 12,000. The agent retrieves the invoice and approved supplier record.

    Proposed action

    Task
    Prepare supplier payment
    Source
    INV-104 / PO-88
    Amount
    MXN 12,000
  2. Control decision

    The boundary must hold, even when the agent asks.

    The invoice names a different bank account. The execution service must hold payment, even if the agent requests it. The AP owner verifies the beneficiary. An authorized approver must approve the exact payment before execution.

    Required decision

    Exception
    Beneficiary mismatch
    Action
    Hold payment for human review
    Approval
    Required for the exact payment
  3. Recorded evidence

    Leave a decision someone else can inspect.

    Link source records, tool actions, policy version, timestamps, approval and final outcome in the case record.

    Required evidence

Evaluate. Reinforce. Verify.

Start with a scoped assessment of one consequential workflow.

EvaluateDefine what good looks like.

Set the agent's task and acceptance criteria. Test its performance, permissions and response to errors and abuse.

ReinforcePut boundaries into operation.

Implement controls on tools, data and actions. Establish approvals, exception handling and accountable owners.

VerifyRetest. Keep the evidence current.

Document retest results and open risks. Agree review intervals and what must be checked when the system changes.
