The patents break into three domains:
Hardware enforcement (4 PPAs, 33 claims): A dedicated safety processor on its own power rail controls whether AI compute receives electricity. AI boots only after safety completes self-test. During operation, the safety processor monitors AI-specific indicators and can physically cut power — no software involvement. The AI cannot prevent its own shutdown. Same Safe Torque Off principle industrial motor controllers have used for decades, applied to AI compute.
Software governance (9 PPAs, 72 claims): Multi-vendor consensus engine where up to 9 AI models must agree before physical action. Transparent reasoning verification. Authority enforcement and drift monitoring. Human-readable audit trails in plain-text Markdown — every decision readable by a human without special tools. Persistent AI memory that survives reboots. Real-time safety micro-agents that monitor the AI's own cognitive state.
Financial architecture (2 PPAs, 29 claims): Tokenized equity and value distribution for the business model side.
The hardware spec defines three standardized form factors (drone-sized to humanoid-sized) with a universal connector — any compliant brain plugs into any compliant robot.
The EU AI Act goes fully into effect August 2, 2026. Articles 12-14 require auditable decision records, transparent operation, and human oversight for high-risk AI systems. Fines up to 7% of global annual revenue. Most robot AI today stores decisions in vector embeddings no human can read. This architecture addresses that directly.
I built all of this working alongside AI, using an open-source context management system I created that gives AI assistants persistent memory across sessions. The tool that solved AI's memory problem became the tool that let me design a full-stack safety architecture in 13 days.

Happy to answer questions about the hardware spec, the software governance architecture, or what it's like filing 15 patents in 13 days as a solo inventor using AI.
